Cyldir Description

The Cyldir application will search for lost and not lost directories in a lost or not lost FAT partition. Usage: Cyldir [] Lists lost, not lost and obsolete directories found in a FAT partition with FAT at the given location. Short filenames are shown. in sectors. in KB. entries for FAT16, root cluster for FAT32. extension must be .txt. Or copies files from a lost directory. If the 'copyfiles' option is used, the current directory must be empty if not root. The directory cluster numbers can be found in the search log file. In pure DOS longname.bat for renaming is added. A file cyldir.log is added with names of files which are not readable or may be fdisk damaged. Files > 2 GB cannot be copied. The correct DOS codepage should loaded, or (example) the command 'set codepage=865' issued before search. During file copying the correct codepage should be loaded. Run Cyldir from floppy or a partition without problems. Copied files cannot be expected to be OK. Alternate usage: Cyldir dir [] Or: Cyldir tree [] A search log file cdir.txt must exist in current directory, or in the root of current partition. Recommended: Put cdir.txt and cyldir.exe in a new empty directory, e.g. arget, and work from there. Copies files from lost partition. Directories are created relative to current directory. If 'tree' is specified, files in subdirectories are copied. If target subdirectories already exist, they must be empty. Up to ten can be entered. If the root directory cluster number is entered with the tree option, you can add '+lost' to the command line to include lost directories, beginning with ? in cdir.txt. If run in a Windows DOS box, long file names are copied. If run in pure DOS, a file longname.bat for renaming to long file names is created in each directory. Enough free space should be present. To stop after current directory, press . To write a directory listing to cdir.lst, use: Cyldir list Example: From Findpart or Findfat you have for disk 1: -----FAT CHS -Size Cl --Root -Good -Rep.
