Introduction

	FilesFirst is a command line utility which will scan through a
directory, and any sub-directories, and build a list of files followed by the
file size and directory containing the file.  FilesFirst is useful when
examining a collection of files of the same type, such as a collection of
archived applications, music or clip art files; the output of the program can
be loaded into a text editor, such as !StrongEd, and sorted, this gives a list
of file names and associated information which is very useful when looking for
duplicated files.

	To install FilesFirst, simply move the file "FilesFirst" into your
library directory.

	To scan a directory, use the command:

	FilesFirst <input> <output> [options]

	where <input> is the name of the directory to be scanned, once
completed the results are saved to <output>.

	Options are used to modify the standard behaviour of FilesFirst, and are
introduced by a hyphen, the option name, and any allowed parameters.  Each
option can be abbreviated to just it's first letter; all options are case-
insensitive.

	Option			Effect

	[-directory] <dir.>	Specify the directory to be processed.

	[-output] <file>	Save the results to this text file.

	-temp <file>		Specify file to use for temporary workspace, by
				default <Wimp$ScrapDir>.CountOutP is used.  The
				scrap file is deleted when the program has
				finished.

	-recurse		Recurse into sub-directories and include their
				contents, by default this is turned off.

	-verbose		Display the progress of the program.

	-nohour			Do not display the hourglass.

	-quit <* command>	Executes the command when the program has
				finished.

	-help			Produce a brief help text for the FilesFirst
				syntax and options.
