CARECOM(R) ccd   Version 1.5
Copyright (C) 1993 by CARECOM(R),  Dipl.-Inform. Harald Muehlhoff,  Germany


CARECOM(R) ccd is a shareware utility that enables you to change directories
quickly without completely specifying pathes.


--- Main features: ---------------------------------------------------------

-  Compatible with MS-DOS(TM) and Microsoft(R) Windows NT(TM)
-  Compatible with networks for not creating (trying to create) files in other
   locations than its program/data directory.
   The directory trees and other data files can be made user local by setting
   an environment variable
   (Different users might "see" different parts of the directory hierarchies)
-  If a directory isn't found a directory tree rescan is started automatically
   (The user might not always be at fault! This feature can be disabled ;-)
-  You can partly qualify a path to make your search key less ambiguous, e.g.
   you are able to search for a directory "home" that is in a parent
   directory with a name ending with "et" (like sweet): "ccd et\home"
-  The search for inexact matches can be disabled.


Registered version only:

-  Program output can be selectively disabled.
-  You can quickly go back to the directory you last changed from.
-  You can define a home directory that you can quickly "return" to.


--- Requirements: ----------------------------------------------------------

- MS-DOS(TM) 3.0 or higher  - OR -
- Microsoft(R) Windows NT(TM) operating system with FAT or NTFS partitions
  (Tested with Preliminary Release March 1993; should run on the final
   release)


--- How to install CARECOM(R) ccd: -----------------------------------------
   
1. Copy the ccd files to a directory where you want them to remain
   permanently
2. Execute "install.bat".
   The installation batch file will give you detailed information on how 
   to complete the installation of ccd.
   
   You may run the installation batch file under either MS-DOS(TM) or
   Windows NT(TM).


Note: During operation ccd might create the following files in the directory
      specified by the environment variable "CCDDATADIR". If the environment
      variable is undefined, these files are stored in the ccd program
      directory (the directory that contains the files ccd2.exe and
      ccd2i386.exe).

                ccd.cfg   home.ccd   back.ccd   dirtree.a ... dirtree.z

      Please make sure that you don't have any files with the same names in
      the ccd program directory.

Note: If multiple users in a LAN want to use one copy of ccd (e.g. on a
      fileserver harddisk), please make sure that the environment variable
      CCDDATADIR is set to a different directory for every user.
      Include the set statement in the login script.


--- ccd is shareware: ------------------------------------------------------

You may use ccd on a trial basis for a 15 day evaluation period. Please read
the license agreement below for information on how to register.
Please note that the options marked as registered version only will be
ignored if used with an unregistered version of ccd.


--- How to use CARECOM(R) ccd: ---------------------------------------------

1. Use it as a replacement for the dos command cd.

   In many cases using ccd will have the same effect as using cd, e.g.:

   cd ..                           ccd ..
   cd \home\sweet\home             ccd \home\sweet\home


   Please note however that even with fully qualified names there are some
   differences:

   Let's assume your current drive is "A:". If you type "cd c:\home" the
   current directory for drive "C:" will be changed to "home"; but your
   current drive won't change.
   As the main reason for ccd is to bring you to a directory as fast
   as possible, typing "ccd c:\home" will change the current drive to "C:".

2. Use it to go directly to a directory without giving a fully qualified path
   or even a full filename

   Let's assume the following directory hierarchy:

   c:\ -- home -- sweet -- home
       |                |
       |- dos           +- food
       |
       +- cpp  -- h

   If your current directory is "\" on drive "C:" you would have to type
   "cd home\sweet\food" to change to directory "food". Using ccd typing
   "ccd f" would do the job.

   If you want to change to directory "home" typing "ccd home" will bring
   you to either "c:\home" or "c:\home\sweet\home" depending on your
   current directory. Once you are in one of the "home"-directories typing
   "ccd home" - or just "ccd ho" - will bring you to the other one.

   To change to directory "h" you just have to enter "ccd h". Reentering
   "ccd h" will leave you in directory "h" because ccd found a `perfect
   match'. There could be many directories beginning with the letter "h";
   if you want to go to directories beginning with "h" type "ccd h*".
   Typing this several times - or using the F3 function key to repeat the  
   previous input - will bring you from "c:\cpp\h" to "c:\home" to
   "c:\home\sweet\home" and back to "c:\cpp\h" etc...
   The wildcard character "*" is allowed only as the last character of
   the search key, e.g. "h*".

   You can partly qualify a path to make your search key less ambiguous. By
   entering "ccd t\h" you specify that you're only looking for directories
   with names beginning with the letter "h" that are contained in directories
   ending with the letter "t". Therefore the only candidate in our example
   is the directory "c:\home\sweet\home".
                                 ^^^
   Typing "ccd sweets" will bring you to the directory "c:\home\sweet" since
   this is the closest match. "ccd sx" would also take you to this directory
   because it is the only directory beginning with the letter "s". If you
   prefer an error message over this kind of matching, add the option
   "/exact match" - or "/ex" for short - to your ccd command line or
   configuration file.

3. Use ccd to return to the directory you last ccd'ed from
   (registered version only)

   Entering "ccd /b" or "ccd /back" will take you back to the directory you
   last changed away from.

   Let's assume your current directory is "\home\sweet\home". After typing
   "ccd d", you find yourself in the dos-directory. To return to
   "\home\sweet\home" you just have to enter "ccd /b".

4. Use ccd to return to your `home' directory
   (registered version only)

   Given that you are working on a project with most of the files stored
   in directory "\cpp" you could define "\cpp" as your `home' directory.
   Every time you want to return to this directory, just type "ccd /h" or
   "ccd /home". To define your home directory enter "ccd /define home \cpp".

   
More options:

   Beside the options mentioned above, i.e. "/install", "/exact match",
   "/back", "/home" and "/define home", there are several other options:

   /rescan         Force a rescan of the directory structure for the default
   /r              or given drive.
                   Normally the use of this option isn't required, for ccd
                   automatically starts a rescan if it either doesn't find a
                   `good' match for the given search key or if there is
                   evidence that the directory structure has changed since
                   the last - possibly automatic - rescan done by ccd.
                   (Such evidence could be that the current directory isn't
                   included in the directory list maintained by ccd.)
                   Before accepting an inexact match like "c:\home\sweet"
                   for search key "sx" (see 2.), a directory rescan will be
                   performed if the option "/norescan" isn't given.

   /norescan       Disable automatic rescan of directory structure. This
   /n              option is most useful if added to the configuration file
                   for installations with very large and seldomly changing
                   directory hierarchies. This option can be overwritten
                   by using the "/rescan" option.

   /case sensitive Perform case sensitive matching. This option is most
   /c              useful with NTFS partitions. The case matching must be
                   exact; e.g. "AbC" doesn't match "abC".


More options (registered version only):

   /verbose        Display all messages.
   /v

   /quiet          Suppress all only informational messages.
   /q

   /mute           Suppress all messages - including error messages -
   /m              not specifically asked for (by including an option
                   like "/help").

 /disable backlog  Don't save the current directory when changing away
                   from it
