Disk Envelope Printer                       
                       ---------------------

By M.J.Worsfold 1989.

     One of my major niggles about floppy disks, is that the sticky 
labels are just not big enough to write all  the  disk  information 
on. Disk Envelope has been written to first scan the disk and  then 
print an envelope which can be cut out  and  glued  together.  This 
will aid in the determination of what is on each disk  without  the 
need to do a quick DIR. This envelope contains the details  of  all 
the files on the disk in their appropriate directories.This is very 
useful when your disks are full with small files in many  different 
directories.
     Admittedly this only works for 5 1/4 inch disks as 3 1/2  inch 
disk don't even need envelopes, it is also silly to try  and  print 
an envelope for a Hard disk!
     To make the program even more useful, I have allowed a  simple 
disk listing to be made to the printer. This could be  very  useful 
when cleaning up hard disks of unwanted files, as the program gives 
a complete listing of all the files on the disk.Hidden, System  and 
Read-only files are given abbreviations in the listing so that they 
can be identified as such.
     Quite a lot of files on computers are personal, some  of  them 
you may not wish to be printed on the envelopes. For this reason  I 
have included a facility to remove lines  from  the  scanned  data. 
However once removed they can only be replaced by  re-scanning  the 
disk, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. 
     The envelope can only have 96 entries printed on  it  (due  to 
it's physical size), while the scanned disk can have many thousands 
of entries. I've allowed for 5000 entries, with up to 500 files  in 
any one directory. The colour of the entries changes at 96  entries 
so you will know what will be printed on the envelope.
     The program is menu driven and as such is easy  to  use.  When 
editing the disk data, lines can be removed using the  DEL  key  on 
the numerical keypad. The line cursor can be moved using the cursor 
and page keys in the normal fashion.
     The final output can be to any Epson or IBM  graphics  printer 
(or Compatibles), in Draft,NLQ or even Enhanced NLQ !. Speed  drops 
considerably with Enhanced NLQ as four passes of the head are made.
     All different screen displays are covered including  all  mono 
and colour adapters. The program only uses the text screen  so  all 
types of graphics adapter will work. I have tested the  program  on 
Hercules, CGA, EGA and MCGA and all have worked fine.

     I hope you find the program useful, even if you  don't  use  5 
1/4 inch disks.
