Agreed Michael!
I also think filenotes are an execellent tool. I hope Khalid agrees!
There is NO file requester out there that supports filenotes. I like how
Analyze! supports em: It shows the filename, size and date *UNLESS* there
is a filenote, then it shows the name and filenote. It would be a great
asset for a few applications/orginizations of mine.
ForExample:
On all my downloaded stuff, I describe the file via the filenote. This
works great for stuff I get from CI$ that have only 8 character filenames
which leaves me to listarc them to remember what they really are without
filenotes.
I Use SID (dir util) to list directories showing only filenames and
filenote.
I use ListCom from the CLI to list just the file and comment on a single
line. (C:LIST makes a hard-to-read listing 2 lines per entry when
filenotes are involved.) ListCom v1.3x should be in the libs here
somewhere.
As I get better at C, I will probably improve ListCom. It will be *A LOT*
smaller in a 2.0 only version.
