Cataloging of Spectrum programs and documents on the PC

Hello Shadow Maker Although this is an old topic, I'll add my two cents. In now long ago times I wrote my own program, specifically for Spectrum software, under called FileBase, and for some time I stuffed everything into it. Some of you I've probably seen or heard of it. As a result, a database of 2700 records was accumulated, from all over possible information (title, author, release date, author and release date, size, comments, screenshots, etc.), plus for each program is stored link to its file (trd/scl), and you can run it. Search and sort are present. Then, in view of the quite considerable flow of new programs at that time, I Stopped filling. This is of course not a universal and not the best solution; it is only suitable for own local collection, and then only with great perseverance for filling. Although you can write it to disk along with all the software included in it. You can give it to a friend so that he can see what you have, mark what you need, and then it’s easy to copy all this to him in the program itself... There were two attempts to promote it to a more global level, first under the auspices of NetSpec (if anyone remembers this miracle), then in a new rebirth - Scentre (hello Diver!). Both failed for different reasons. If anyone is interested, I can give you FileBase (program + my database). Sincerely, Thann Erannor aka ex-Boh/Image Crew.

Hello, Thenn It seems that under Win there are programs that scan the screw and report identical files, This means that the program can be located in different directories several times. please advise names.

Hello, goodboy File cataloging is always requires def. "Personal" rules I remember when I first encountered with this problem paid first on ie5.5 in the Favorites folderBookmarks so here I apologize for the link in general no number, just a description one can only dream of each of them and rely on intelligence creator of the site. I found a very banal solution, Hungarian_nation or a_air b_book c_coin .. The trick is that the alphabetic nat has the property of ordering in folder according to the command. Can be used in addition to this 3 letter nation trd_game scl_soft tap_demo Here I think the principle is also clear. We put the extension in front and not in the back. now let's move to global level what's here you can come up with zx --zx_dos -+---e_shalaev1 - emulators -+---r_SN - editor --zx_win -+---e_zx_view1 - emulators -+---r_nnm - editor --zx_dk - developer kit -+---z88 --zx_games -+-------g_trd -+-------g_scl -+-------g_tap --zx_soft -+-------g_trd -+-------g_scl -+-------g_tap --zx_arc - All rar zip archives, etc. are stored here. I usually put the title before the extension I also add *.ext of the stored format i.e. name.trd.rar or name.tzx.rar very convenient and without compromising the name But before that I turn over the RAR archive in order to reduce the size and add a commentary on the files of which in lifeyou won’t get it from anyone.. sometimes *.diz they will only put that.. heh -+-------games -+-------soft -+-------demo -+-------emul -+-------view Just like that, using improvised means and you can organize any directory without any hassle Hmm, when organizing using this method you need remember that the English alphabet comes first then Russian, and in front of them all the numbers proudly stand Note to cool programmers There is a tzx format so there are rumors that it's in You can choke and comment and Spectrum type and screensaver picture and kits All in all a complete set... I think you can also include a description in place of a comment, which is in some sense a description but that's not the point... :D

Hello, goodboy goo> it seems under win there are programs that scan the screw and report it goo> identical files For example, in Total Commander (version 6.03 for me) in the file search mode in In the "Advanced" tab there is a "Search for duplicates" function. I think it will do. A For example, there is also a program called NoClone, although I have never used it. Located at http://noclone.net/
