Handle
bridges the Long Filename - DOS program gap.
Handle lets you specify a group of files using wildcard patterns, and a program to handle the files. Handle will pass the DOS 8.3 filename of the files to your program. Your program should manipulate your files and write the output to a subdirectory. Afterwards Handle will rename the files in the subdirectory to the original long filenames.
Demos are included that let Handle call the freeware program snobol4.exe from Catspaw, Inc. to manipulate some HTML files. Read more about:
