RESTORE 6.3 is freware replacement for the official DOS Restore.
    It restore old MSDOS or PCDOS floppy backups.
    What's wrong with the official DOS Restore versions 2.0 to 7.0.
1.  You may no longer have the PC DOS or MS DOS softaware or
    know how to install it.
2.  The DOS 3.2 version according to a Microsoft technician has 22
    reported bugs.  It is "the lemon of MS DOS" to use his phrase.
3.  Under DOS 3.2, MS DOS and PC DOS use incompatible formats for
    Restore diskettes.  You cannot restore files backed up on
    IBM PC DOS to an MS DOS system and vice versa.
4.  DOS 3.2 and 3.3 disk formats are incompatible. You cannot
    restore files backed up on DOS 3.3 to a machine running DOS
    3.2.  Version 3.2 Restore will not run under DOS 3.3, etc.
5.  DOS 5.0 restore can now read DOS 3.2 backups, but not vice versa.
6.  DOS 6.0 backup is completely incompatible with earlier versions.
Canadian Mind Products Restore works under all versions of PC
and MS DOS from 2.0 to 7.0 and will restore diskettes created by
DOS BACKUP 2.0 through 5.0.  It runs fine under Windows or OS/2
in the DOS emulation box.
This allows you to restore your backups even if you have changed
operating systems.  It also allows you to distribute large files
or programs on floppy to people running an unknown variety of
operating systems.  This is how the Federal Aviation
Administration distributed code to all the airports.
WARNING! RESTORE only works with 8.3 filenames.

 C:      = target hard drive, i.e. C:, D:, etc.
 path    = the directory where the files will be placed.
 filespec = the specification of files to be restored.

Samples of Use
==============
 RESTORE.COM A: C:\*.* /S /P    -- restores all files, letting you
                                   decide which ones to restore individually.
 RESTORE A: C:\*.BAT/S          -- restores all BAT files in all
                                   subdirectories.
 RESTORE A: C:\MySub\MyFile.Ext
 RESTORE A: C:\MySub\*.*/P/S/Q
 RESTORE A: C:\MySub/P
 RESTORE A: C:\MySub
 RESTORE A: \MySub              -- presumes default drive
 RESTORE A: C:*.*               -- presumes default directory
 RESTORE A: C:\*.BAT/S          -- restores all BAT files in all
                                subdirectories.
 It is not as elaborate as the commercial versions, only the /S
 and /P switches are supported.
Version 6.2 displays the new address and phone number.  Also
documentation and program listings clarify the use of Restore
under DOS 5.0 and 7.0.  Clarification on site licenses and bundling
restore to install your software.
ASSEMBLING
You can use the ANT scripts, or assemble and link manually.
REBUILD.XML is a simple restore build that presumes all files are already in the project directory.
Build with ant -f rebuild.xml zip
Assemble restore using ANT
Invoke with [ant clean] to erase class files and start over.
Invoke with [ant assemble] to just assemble and link.
Invoke with [ant zip] to create zip files containing source and executables.
You must have ml.exe, ml.err (the assembler) and link.exe on the path.
You can get ml.exe 6.15 from http://download.microsoft.com/download/vb60ent/Update/6/W9X2KXP/EN-US/vcpp5.exe extract with WinZip.
You can get link.exe 5.6 from http://download.microsoft.com/download/vc15/Update/1/WIN98/EN-US/Lnk563.exe and extract with WinZip.
ml.exe/link.exe 9.0, bundled with Visual C++ Express available from http://www.microsoft.com/express/download/#webInstall,
will NOT work unless you modify the ANT script and modify the source code drastically.
You could assemble manually with:
ml.exe /AT/c /Fl /Zf restore.asm
and link with:
link.exe /MAP /TINY restore.obj,restore.com,restore.map;
