Information about “TREETOP”
This is a multi-functional hard disk file and directory manager that
provides an easy-to-use interface to DOS commands. A tree structured
graphic image of the disk directory structure is first displayed when
running TREETOP, then a point-and-shoot user interface is used to
execute commands and navigate through the hard disk. It's fast and
user-friendly, featuring pull-down menus, on-line context-sensitive
help, a user-installable setup and full mouse support.
TREETOP helps you organize your files and directories so you can
easily maintain your hard disk. You can rapidly search, sort, rename,
add, delete or view files and directories with single key commands. The
pull-down menus make changing the date/time stamp or file
attributes easy. Files can be tagged by directory, filename, date/
time, file attributes, entire logical hard drive, or any combination of
these items. Once selected as a group, you can mass copy, print, sort,
delete, or move these files from directory to directory or disk to disk.
Temporarily shell to DOS, or execute any .COM, .EXE, or .BAT file on
your drive from within TREETOP. The user-installable setup provides a
means for entering the name of your favorite text editor so TREETOP can
automatically run your editor when you choose to edit a file.

TREETOP INSTALLATION
This installation describes how to load TreeTop onto your hard disk
drive and modify your AUTOEXEC.BAT file so that it will run at its
optimum performance. TreeTop consists of three files that should be
on your hard disk drive for proper operation and two other files that
you may want to include for easy reference. These files are listed
below with a brief explanation for each of them:
1) TT.EXE - This is the main executable file that is run
when you execute TreeTop.
2) TREETOP.HLP - This is the file that contains the online,
context sensitive help for TreeTop. If this
file is not on your hard disk drive, TreeTop
will still operate properly, but you won't
have any online help.
3) TREETOP.PAR - This file contains the user defined setup
parameters for TreeTop. It is not supplied
on the master disk because it is created
automatically by TreeTop when you save the
setup parameters.
4) TREETOP.DOC - This is a text file that has a copy of the
Purchase/License, Warranty, Ordering
Information, Order Form, and Installation
Instructions.
5) README.TXT - This file contains the latest information on
TreeTop that may not be reflected in the
bound manual.
There are two requirements that must be met for TreeTop to operate
properly on your computer. You must first copy the file TT.EXE to a
directory on your hard disk drive that is included in the global path
variable. That will insure the execution of TreeTop from anywhere on
your system. The second requirement is that you set up an
environment variable that instructs TreeTop to find its help
(TREETOP.HLP) and parameter (TREETOP.PAR) files in the correct
directory.
The easiest way to accomplish this is to create a directory on your
hard disk drive called TREETOP, then copy all of the above files to
that directory. You must also edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to include
the directory TREETOP in the path command and set an environment
variable that tells TreeTop where to find its files. You can do this
by following the steps outlined below:
1) Choose the drive on which you wish to install TreeTop.
The following example assumes drive C:.
2) Now create the TREETOP directory by using the
"make directory" DOS command, MD. Note: After each
command listed below, press <ENTER> to execute.
MD C:\TREETOP
3) You can now copy all the files from your master floppy to
the TREETOP directory using the DOS copy command. If
your master disk is in floppy drive A:, type
COPY A:*.* C:\TREETOP
TREETOP INSTALLATION cont.
4) You must also edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file so that each
time you boot the computer TreeTop will know where to
find its help and parameter files. To do this, include
the following line in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:
SET TREETOP=C:\TREETOP
5) The last thing you must do is edit the path command in
your AUTOEXEC.BAT file to include the directory,
C:\TREETOP; in the path variable.
You should reboot your computer when you have completed the above
five steps. After rebooting, you can run TreeTop by simply typing TT
from anywhere on your system. If you have setup TreeTop properly, the
TreeTop registration screen will no longer appear automatically each
time you execute TreeTop.
Note: You should only edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file in a non- document
ASCII mode (also known as DOS ASCII or text mode.) If you are not
familiar with your autoexec.bat file or how to edit it, you should
read your DOS manual and/or get some help from a knowledgeable
person. Most editors or word processors provide a way to edit files
like autoexec.bat. Check your editor or word processor manual if you
are not sure.
INSTALLING A MOUSE
To use your mouse with TreeTop, you must first load the standard
Microsoft (or Microsoft compatible) mouse driver. There are
typically two different ways to load a mouse driver. The first and
most common way is to include a line in your CONFIG.SYS file that
instructs the operating system to load the mouse driver every time
you boot. The other way is to execute a .COM file from the system
prompt or from your AUTOEXEC.BAT file that loads the mouse driver.
See the manual that accompanied your mouse for specific instructions
on how to load your mouse driver.
