AUTOSCAN
                              ~~~~~~~~

      After a conversation with Eric Boehm of the /\/\ountainTop
      BBS I decided to write this thing to automate some of
      the more tedious tasks such as scanning for Virus's..

 10-19-90  Version 1.0:
      First public release, needed a config file to run and only
      supported ZIP and ARC file...Needed a dedicated "work" directory
                  
 10-20-90  Version 1.1:
      Someone wanted the ability to scan the hard drive(s) so that code
      was thrown in...(yea - a day later.) 
      Added built in config file editing.

 11-15-90 Version 1.2:
      Removed all code for the config file and built in the ability to
      search the current path for any needed files. Added support for
      ZIP,ARC,ICE,LZH and PAK files..Installed code to made it's own
      work directory and delete it when done...NO config file is now 
      needed..(ok Eric ?? <smirk>).
      The log file was placed in the root directory of the current drive,
      also added time and date to the log.

 12-23-90 Version 1.3:
     Made MANY changes is the source code and dropped the size of the
     EXE file..Log file is now placed in the same directory as
     AUTOSCAN.EXE, beats having a few of them eh?. Extended the scanning
     of hard drives to C: thru H:. Log file reports more of what is going
     on plus it's easier to read now..
     Check for DosExitcode and Doserror installed, made it a little more
     reliable when it checks how scan.exe exited.
     Installed code to run CHECK.EXE to simulate a Virus...
     Happy Christmas!!!!

 01-13-91 Version 2.0: 
     Hmm many changes to the source code. AUTOSCAN will now scan archives
     within archives to ANY level and ANY combination of compression types.
     Added support for LHARC and PKXARC, AUTOSCAN will use them if ICE.EXE
     or PKUNPAK.EXE aren't found. It will also check free disk space, if 
     the amount of free space is less that 50% times the archive size 
     AUTOSCAN will exit and make a note in the log.
     AUTOSCAN will now keep track of the files it has already processed.
     AUTOSCAN, if it detects a bad Archive or Virus, will rename the file
     with and extension of .BAD.
     Fixed a minor problem that if any needed file wasn't within the first
     40 characters of the path it wouldn't be found..oops..sorry..
     
     Added in several Dos Errorlevels so batch files can be used effectivly.
     'Bout it for now I think ! Any Ideas ?
      First version released onto the SDS Network..

 01-27-91 version 2.1:
     Hmm many changes to this one too, just when I thought I was done..
     Thanks to a few people around the country I have added a few more
     things in....
     Added F10 to abort - Please read the docs. reguarding this option.
     Added /N and /A these option are for the registered version ($5) and
     allow AUTOSCAN to check for Bad Archives only and Scan all drives
     and examine ALL ARCHIVES...WOW!.
     MANY internal changes to the code, streamlined a few of the procedures
     and functions...Changed the amount of memory that Autoscan needs in
     order to prevent runtime errors on some machines.
     Scan.Exe will now only scan RAM on the first pass, thus the runtime of
     autoScan is vastly reduced. Remember AUTOSCAN ? for online Help.
     GO GIANTS!!!!..
