Simple Sorted Directory
                                     (SSD)
                    Simple Sorted Directory, Remote version
                                     (SSDR)
                          Vertically Sorted Directory
                                     (VSD)

				  version 1.1

	These are programs very similar to SD in operation, but  lacking
	some of the superfluous (in my opinion) features that clutter up
	the latest versions of SD  while  adding  a  few  features  that
	should have probaby been included in SD from the start.  The two
	most notable of these are a  more  extensive  summary  line  and
	options that control the display of file sizes.

	Some features were left out because there are other programs  in
	the  public  domain far more capable of performing them than SD.
	Namely, the .LBR directory and drive/user search.

	I have chosen to distribute three separate programs  instead  of
	the  usual one with option switches to prevent a lot of IF-ENDIF
	garbage  in  the  files.    They  are  SSD,  a	simple	terminal
	independant  program;  SSDR,  a  version of SSD meant for use on
	Remote CP/M systems (RCP/M's); and  VSD,  a  terminal  dependant
	version of SSD that displays sorted files vertically.

                                     * * *

SSD/SSDR:

	These programs are the most like SD in operation.  They read the
	chosen	drive's directory, sort it, and display it on the screen
	in a vertical format.  If a file has its system  flag  set,  and
	the  $S  command line option is selected, then the file is shown
	with an asterisk in place of a period between the  filename  and
	filetype (i.e. DUMMY   *FIL).

	SSDR is very similar to RDIR.  It shows a files XMODEM send time
	next to its size.  The $K option will compute sendtimes assuming
	1k packet transfers.

	The .ASM files contain two user-modifiable constants:	 NUMCOL,
	the  maximum  number  of files that can be displayed on one line
	(SSD defaults to 4 and SSDR defaults  to  3  for  an  80  column
	screen);  and  NUMLIN,	the  maximum number of lines that can be
	displayed on the screen minus 1 (defaults to 23 for  a	24  line
	screen).    These  values  are	located  at  103 Hex and 104 Hex
	respectively and may be patched with DDT.

VSD:

	This program is very terminal dependant and  will  only  run  on
	terminals    that    support	direct	cursor	addressing  Five
	customization strings exist within the file that must be set for
	the  user's  particular  terminal.    Each string takes the form
	"dnssssssssss," that is,  a  binary  number  (d)  of  .1  second
	intervals  to  delay  after  printing  the  string (not normally
	used), a binary number (n) denoting the length	of  the  string,
	followed  by  10  bytes  in which terminal control sequences are
	placed. These strings, their locations, and defaults are:


name	 loc	   FUNCTION		    default
------+------+------------------------+--------------------------------
CLRSCR| 0103 | clear console screen   | esc E
REVON | 010F | reverse video (dim) on | esc p
REVOFF| 011B |	       "	   off| esc q
FENCE | 0127 | file separator	      | esc F | esc G (H-19 graphic)
CPSTR | 0133 | cursor position string | esc Y
E2EOP | 013F | erase to end of page   | esc J
OFFSET| 014B | offset added to cursor | 20h
      |      | addressing values      |
NUMCOL| 014C | number of dir columns-1| 3 (80 column screen)
MHZ   | 014D | clock speed of system  | 2
      |      | in MHz (only if delays |
      |      | are used).	      |

	In addition, if your terminal expects the cursor position string
	to  send  the column value before the row value, you must change
	the EQUate ROWFRST to FALSE and reassemble the program using MAC
	or RMAC.

Command Line Options:

	There are four command line options supported by  all  three  of
	these directory programs.  They are:

	   B   - don't compensate for Block-size in filesizes
	   D   - reset the Disk drives before directory
	   R   - display file sizes in Records instead of k
	   S   - display files with the System flag set
	   Unn - change the default User-number

	SSD and SSDR also support the following options:

	   N - No screen paging
	   V - show program's name and Version number

	Finally, SSDR supports these xfertime options:

	   Bn - compute xfertimes for the baud rate n (0-9)
		(SSDR $B? prints a list of legal baud rate values)
	   K  - compute xfertimes as for 1k packet transfers

	In addition, SSDR will only allow the S and D options  when  the
	WHEEL byte is set (i.e. when a SYSOP uses the system).
