Help categorize the TRS-80 software archive

Nearly 30,000 programs, and almost none of them say what kind of program they are. Mark whatever you recognize. Pick as many words as fit — a game that teaches arithmetic is Game, Math, Education — then send the page. Everything is reviewed by hand before it goes anywhere near the archive, so a best guess is worth more than a blank.

Important Note: Do not do multiple entries of the same program. If you flag Super Nova by Big Five once, all Super Nova by Big Five entries will get updated. No need to waste your time flagging each Super Nova

File Commander

Southern Software

M3 · DMK

flcmdrm3.zip

FILE COMMANDER The second of the new SOUTHERN SOFTWARE offering is of much wider application and with LAZYWRITER and DISK INDEX 3.1, has become one of the base programs that MOLYMERX relies on for our day to day operations. FILE COMMANDER allows full screen display of Disk Files so that commands can be executed with 1 or 2 keystrokes. All DOS's are supported with shorthand commands, repeated operations and own-definitions allowed. As with other Southern Software, (like ENBASE and ACCEL) the programs are supplied on a minidos disk with utilities to RELOCate and IMPORT to any disk system and single drive copies are supported. FC provides a very useful series of utilities for DOS operations. Again with a DOS such as DOSPLUS 3.5 the utility is provided (CO-DIR) but for TRSDOS or NEWDOS users it is a very valuable product. Memory Requirements 32K Mod.1/3 - Disk
