1. What is ScanRun ?

        This program is a universal interface for different utilities
   that without ScanRun can only be used manually. These utilities are
   especially the EXE and COM packers which usually don't have any user
   interface. This is what ScanRun is meant to change, but it can be used
   with other utilities, too. You can use it with jpeg or gif optimizers,
   to copy, move or delete files with specified extension (eg. tmp files),
   you can even create slideshows with a picture viewer utility... etc.
        Basically it's a file finder but the difference is that you can do
   almost anything with each file by running external utilities on them
   (Note: you can run exe, com, bat files and any existing dos command).

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Requirements.

        It can be run on almost any Ms-Dos system and under Windows, too.
        - 386 recommended;
        - approx. 500 kb free Dos memory (depends on the utilities you use);
        - faster drives are better (use HDBENCH v1.5 to test your drives);

   My configuration:
                    - Machine: Intel 486SX2 50 Mhz
                    - Environment: DR-DOS 7.03  -> 571 kb free Dos memory
                    - Drives:
                      1st: Samsung Apollo 250 MB: Dos (with FAT 16)
                      2nd: Samsung Apollo 250 MB: Linux - kernel 2.2.16

3. Other tips and comments.

  If you find it too hard to give the program your parameters each time you
  run it then put those parameters into the default.log file and this way
  you will be able to simply select your special configuration thanks to
  the 'Defaults' option.

  This program is far from being perfect, you may find lots of bugs or other
  annoying things in it, but keep in mind that I have worked a lot on this
  software and that it is Freeware.

  ScanRun was written in Turbo Pascal v7.0.
  It was compressed with aPACK v0.99b by Joergen Ibsen which I consider to
  be the best executable compressor around. Thanks Jibz !

4. What are Change, Fcopy and Mover ?

        These are simple utilities, mover.exe is the equal of the move
  command available with every Dos version, change.exe is something not very
  useful in itself, but when using programs which use input and output files
  it might come handy. Fcopy.exe is the equal of the Dos copy command and
  Fdelete is something like del. For obtaining information on how to use
  these utilities, run each one without any parameters. Note: these small
  programs are freeware, too.
