               Move Utility for Windows (MvWin)

                    Version 1.0 - 4/26/91

General Description:  This program allows files and directories to be
    moved, copied, or deleted.  Directories can be manipulated just like
    files.  For the most part, a mouse initiates all of the actions and the
    keyboard is rarely used.  

Operation:  When the program begins, an empty work space is presented.  A
    row of disk buttons is placed below the menu bar.  Each button
    represents one of the disk drives on the computer.  There is a
    "trash icon" at the bottom of the application work space.

    Clicking on a disk button, opens a window into the disk and displays
    the current directory.  A line at the top of the window, displays the
    number of files and directories displayed and their total size.
    Multiple windows for a disk are allowed.  Navigation to different
    subdirectories is possible by double clicking on the desired directory.
    (Make sure the directory has not been selected.)

    Moving (or copying) something is a two step process.  First select the
    members to be moved.  The top line will display the number of members
    selected.  Next, drag one of the selected members to it's new destination
    The new destination may be a disk button, a file/directory in another
    window, an icon of another window or the trash.  When the button is
    released at the new destination, all of the selected files/directories
    are moved.

    In order to get a feel for how the program works, it might be helpful
    to create some test files and use MvWin to move, copy, and delete them.

    Shortcut: The right button of the mouse can be used to select or
              unselect a file without affecting the selection of any
              other file.

Deleting: The "trash icon" is used to delete files/directories.  Simply
    drag your selected members to the icon.  Trash can be processed in
    one of two ways.

    Automatic Trash disposal - ON - The files/directories are deleted
        immediately.

    Automatic Trash disposal - OFF (default) - The files/directories are
        only marked for deletion and remain on the disk.  The files will
        no longer be displayed in a disk window.  If something has been
        put in the trash, the trash icon can be restored to a window which
        displays the members that have been marked for deletion.  At this
        point, files in the trash can be moved back to where they came
        from or back to another window to prevent them from being deleted.
        Nothing is deleted from the disk until the trash is emptied or the
        program is exited.

    NOTE: When a directory is in the trash, it will be deleted whether or
          not it has any files in it.


Menu Bar:

    File
        Empty Trash: Delete all of the files/directories in the trash
        Exit:        Quit the program

    View
        Refresh: Display the subdirectory again
        Details: Allows you to display additional information, such as
                 dates and/or sizes.
        All:     View all of the files in a subdirectory
        Include: This brings up a dialogue box that allows you to select
                 which files will be displayed.
        Sort By: Lets you sort the names alphabetically, by date, or by
                 size
        Reverse Sort: Allows you to reverse the sorting order

    Options
        Move:
        Copy: Select one of these depending on whether you want to move
              files or copy files

        Only File Sizes: When displaying sizes, only display the size of
              files.  Do not display the size of directories.
              (Hint: If you are in a hurry, only display file sizes.
               It takes a little time to generate the size of a directory.)

        Auto Trash disposal: If this is selected, a file/directory is
              deleted immediately upon being moved to the trash.

        Confirm Deletions: The program can ask you to confirm any
              deletions it makes.  This option determines whether or not
              confirmations are presented.  'First' means that a
              confirmation will only appear on the first deletion in a group.

        Confirm Exits: If this is selected, the program will display a
              confirmation message when closing a window that contains
              selected members.

    Windows - These options allow you to arrange the windows and icons or
              to select a new active one.


Installation:  No special procedures are neccesary.  The program can be
    run from any directory.  It will look for an initialization file
    called MvWin.ini and located in the Windows subdirectory.  If it does
    not exist, it will be created.  The initialization file is used to
    determine what the initial settings should be on the menu.  If the
    file does not exist, defaults will be used.  When the program ends,
    it saves the current menu settings in this file.  (The state of
    any open windows is not saved.)

    After reading the last three paragraphs, your probably wondering what
    kind of damage this program could do.  It has been thoroughly tested
    and hasn't trashed a disk yet.  DOS calls are used to do the actual
    processing.  (Your favorite 'unerase' program should work fine on any
    deleted files.)  Please be careful and understand what the program
    is doing.  Using the capabilities built into the program,
    it is possible to wipe out an entire hard disk.
    If you do happen to come upon a bug, please let us know.

Authors Note:  There still are a number of enhancements that I would

    displaying how much room is left on a drive, and providing a faster
