What is upx? Is that the linker?
BTW. I appreciate all the help I have received here. All of you
please feel free to download this apparently finished program, and
also my string class. For such a simple command line navigational
utility, this was a real B***H to program. I only use C when I don't
see any other options for using something a little easier. In this
case I was getting my ass handed to me in quickbasic, and I quickly
realized that all bets were off. I don't know that I could have made
this without my string class. I doubt it.
Here is the download link to the zip file.
