MORE INFORMATION
================

  ; Microsoft DoubleSpace Setup Information File
  ;
  ; This file customizes the behavior of DoubleSpace when it is compressing
  ; existing drives or creating new drives.

  ;
  ; Commands under [SpecialFiles] indicate actions to be taken for specific
  ; files; the options are COPY=filename, IGNORE=filename, and
  ; MOVE=filename. Without a path, any file of that name will match;
  ; wildcards (?, *) are acceptable.
  ;
  ;   COPY=
  ;     Specified file(s) are copied to compresed drive, and left behind on
  ;     the uncompressed drive.
  ;
  ;   IGNORE=
  ;     Specified file(s) are left behind on the uncompressed drive.
  ;
  ;   MOVE=
  ;     Specified file(s) are moved to the compressed drive.  This is the
  ;     default behavior for all files, except those with the SYSTEM
  ;     attribute.
  ;
  [SpecialFiles]
  ;
  ;  The following two exceptions are for Microsoft Chart, French version:

     MOVE=MC.COM
     MOVE=MCA

  ;
  ;  The following two exceptions are for Microsoft Multiplan, French
  ; version:
  ;

     MOVE=PLAN.COM
     MOVE=MPA

  ;
  ;  The following two exceptions are for Microsoft Word, French version:
  ;

     MOVE=MW.COM
     MOVE=MWA

  ;
  ;  The following exception is for Norton Anti-Virus:
  ;

     COPY=NAV_.SYS
  ;
  ;  The next two are for drivers required to access the hard disk, whose
  ;  absence could cause data loss [rather than refused access]
  ;  if they were not loaded during recovery from an unexpected reboot
  ;  while compressing a drive.
  ;
     COPY=ASPI4DOS.SYS
     COPY=USPI14.SYS

  ;
  ; Programs under [CopyFiles] are optional utilities that will be left on
  ; the original boot drive if there is enough space.
  ;
  [CopyFiles]
     MSD.EXE
     MEM.EXE

  ;
  ; Programs under [dangerous] will be REM'ed out of config.sys during
  ; DoubleSpace Setup, and will be restored when Setup is complete.
  ;
  [Dangerous]
     PROTMAN
     WORKGRP
     UBNEI
     UBXPS
     ELNKII
     INTERLNK
     MC.SYS
     FASTOPEN

  ;
  ; Programs under [prior] will have DEVICEHIGH=DBLSPACE.SYS placed -
  ; before- them in config.sys.  This is done to avoid memory
  ; incompatibilities. Note that it is okay to have multiple DBLSPACE.SYS
  ; lines in config.sys; any redundant loads are ignored.
  ;
  [Prior]
     PROTMAN

  ;
  ; [Fragments] accepts two lines:  Initial=#### and Addition=#### .
  ; Initial is the number of fragments which will be allowed during SETUP
  ; Addition is the number of fragments we allow, above that which is
  ; currently in use, at all other times with DoubleSpace.
  ;
  [Fragments]
     Initial=10000
     Addition=110

  [UncompressSpecial]
   DONTCOPY=DBLSPACE.INI
