Windows Directory Compare
Version 2.00
Pat Beirne


This little program allows you to view the contents of one or two
directories, allows file copy between them, and works with the
Windows FileManager to support the creation and copy of 4DOS file
descriptions.

You could think of it as a DIRMATCH clone for Windows.

The main manual is located in WDRM2.HLP. This distribution includes
a copy of FMWDRM2.DLL, a File Manager add-on.


Keyboard Operation
==================
Ctrl-A thru Z		change source drive to disk A-Z
Enter			in the file list, execute the program
			in the file list, when there are 2 files, 
				compare them
			in the drive or dir boxes, change directory
Space			in the file list, select the file
			on a button, execute it
F1			wake up the help; not context sensitive
Alt-2			change between 1-dir view and 2-dir view
Alt-letter		see the help file for more
Esc			quit quickly; no save



Drag & Drop Summary
===================

WDRM2 is intended to work closely with the Windows FileManager (WINFILE).
You can drop files or directories onto WDRM2 at any time. Different
things happend, depending on whether it is active or not. The general
idea is that:
	WDRM2 allows you to add descriptions to file names
	WDRM2 allows you to copy files, along with the descriptions.
All the drag & drop actions are intended to support these two principles.


VERSIONS
========
Version 2.00
	Fixed some serious problems with international characters in
		file and dir names.
	Fixed the Enter key so that the file descriptions are not
		hidden.
	Changed the cd-rom detection logic so that it does not
		GPF in WindowsNT or Windows95.
Version 1.02
	Minor corrections to window locations.

Version 1.01
	Allow multiple select in single-dir mode
	Introduce auto-select, only on source directory change
	Keep the source selection, even through the  
		All/Diffs/Similar/Order/Hidden/Dirs/ShowDest/right-dir-change events
	Make the Clear button do double duty; if no files are selected, 
		this button becomes SelectAll
	When selections are set or cleared, the file list box scrolling stays where it was
	Introduce the Delete button, sharing the Move button
	Don't write DESCRIPT.ION if there are no descriptions
	Check for source==dest before file copy
	Shift-control-letter to select destination drive
	If the dest directory comments are dirty, write them out
	Fix the UI problem with click-drag creating false selects
	Dropped files does bring WDRM2 to the top, just like the docs say
	If you repeatedly drop files from the same directory, 
		you do not get the "descriptions changed; save?" message
	Decorated message boxes
	Added beep-on-long-copy option

Version 0.99
	Fixed a problem on the Novell network, where we don't get ".." 
		directories without special code.

Version 0.98
	Added the 'move' button.
	Added the command line option '/d' for waking up an existing instance.
	Added variable font, by means of WDRM2.INI. This implies minor changes the 
		horizontal spacing in the main list box.
	Added Ctl-/ and Ctl-\ to list box actions (select all and clear select).
	Corrected minor painting error in the disk combo box.
	Added directories to the list box. Directories may have comments/descriptions 
		saved in DESCRIPT.ION.
	Added the ability to list hidden files in the list box.
	Added the ability to list the files in upper case. Yuck.



WARNINGS

This program is freeware; use at your own risk. The integrity of "file copy" 
is pretty good but not guaranteed.


Bugs and constructive feed back appreciated.
