  Display File Systems; version 5.10 15-01-2003  (c) 1994-2003; Jan van Wijk
 ----------------------------[ www.dfsee.com ]-------------------------------

Version 5.xx is the best tested, and most feature-rich DFSee ever!

The most important changes are the 32-bit DOS version that runs in just 200 Kb
of DOS memory and is as powerfull as the OS2 and NT versions, and lots of
progress indicators as well as a few new commands.
