DBE |
Directory Backup Extension (DBE) is a highly advanced 80x25
textmode, keyboard driven file manager. It maintains and preserves
unique disk IDs and file entry status flags, long filenames, jump
points, and single-steps selection bar and window updating synchronously
with progress of file copy, move, delete, compare, and view
operations. It also maintains a global selected list and
numerically ordered queue along with normal file/folder lists; all are
sortable by name, ext, size, time, order read from disk, and queue
number, as well as manually. The tag and target states for file
operations are independent, and can be controlled and manipulated in
manifold ways; and DBE can also be instantly exited without losing any
of the important status information relevant to an ongoing series of
file operations. Extensive, detailed documentation accompanies
this program, and its internal help also displays keyboard diagrams with
nearly all features shown identified with their mnemonically related
keys. DBE also handles unpredictable USB drive-letter assignments under
XP/2000 quite well.

Actually, PayPal has had me pretty well screwed now for at least the last year or so;
and I can't add any funds to my PayPal account or even log on to check its status or
anything else. So you could try to send me something; but I'll bet you I don't ever
receive it.
