Filename			Type	 Bytes	 CRC

Directory PD:
CPMJUL12.LST.2			ASCII	132000  2864H <--ascii
CPMJUL12.LZT.1			BINARY	 71808  A58BH <--crunched

CPMJUL12.LST is a list of CP/M public domain files as of 5 a.m. e.d.t.
12-July-87.  The listing is sorted alphabetically by filenames within
each catagory.  Each filename has a short one-line description.

This file will be replaced periodically as new files are added to the
database.  Many of these files are available from SIMTEL20 (see the
PD:CPM.CRCLST) and my RCP/M (see PD:ROYALOAK.DZR).
All are available from GEnie's CP/M RoundTable.

This database is the start of a complete catalog of the files on
SIMTEL20.  If anyone knows how I can take a directory listing like the
one in PD:FILES.IDX (a comma-delimited listing) and somehow match
the filenames and merge the two, please contact me via netmail.  I
would like to have a utility that would make a AAAREAD.ME file for
each PD: subdirectory which would contain the descriptions for
the files in that directory.
