Count is a simple program that recursivly counts the sizes
of files within a directory or volume.
* Count is internally multi-threaded so you can count
many items simultaniously.
* Count works using an AppIcon on workbench and each
separate window can be iconised so you can even change
screen mode whilst counting many things simultainously.
* Count can the display physical size as well as logical size
of files. Generally, on a filing system files take up
an amount of space that is not equal to the actual file
size - its generally bigger. This is because files must
take up at least the size of one block on the filing system
and often files will not fit exactly into a set number of
blocks; this difference in size is what is meant by physical
size as opposed to logical size. This "physical size" is
sometimes useful to know. Of course, count displays the
logical size of files to.
You tell count to display physical size by choosing a
menu option.
* Count can display varying levels of detail whilst it counts
files.
1) (Normal) It can display the filename of every single file
it encounters.
2) (Faster) It can display only the names of the directorys
it encounters.
3) (Fastest) It can display no interim information about the
counting process at all and only display the results at the end.
* Counting can be both paused and aborted.
* Local preferences are saved into ENV: so during normal use
you will not have to reselect your prefered options. Of course
global prefs can be saved to ENVARC: - via a menu item.
* Count uses MUI so the interface is completly font sensitive and
resizeable.
