1 SWING
  SWING is  a  graphical  VMS  directory  and  file management utility
  similar to PC packages such as XTREE-GOLD and PCTOOLS.  SWING may be
  run on any terminal  supported  by  the  VMS SMG (Screen Management)
  routines, such as Digital's VT  series  or  any  reasonably complete
  emulation.

  Format:

      $ SWING
!
2 Parameters
  If a directory specification is used  as  a  parameter  on the SWING
  command  line,  SWING  will  open  its display  at  that  directory.
  Multiple directories may be separated by commas and/or spaces.

3 Examples
  Valid SWING commands include:

      $ SWING [.subdir]
      $ SWING SYS$LOGIN
      $ SWING SYS$LOGIN,SYS$EXAMPLES,SYS$LIBRARY
      $ SWING SYS$LOGIN SYS$EXAMPLES SYS$LIBRARY

2 Command_Qualifiers                                         
  /HELP            

    This command qualifier displays basic syntactical help for SWING.
    It may be specified as either:

       $ SWING /H
     or
       $ SWING -H


  /VERSION

    This command qualifier displays the current version of SWING.  It
    may be specified as either:

       $ SWING /V
     or
       $ SWING -V


  /FILEMANAGER

    This command qualifier starts SWING in the  File Manager  screen,
    bypassing the Directory Manager.  It may be specified as either:

       $ SWING /F
     or
       $ SWING -F


  /0

    This command  qualifier directs Swing to look for a master (total
    device) directory structure  file (see Settings_Files) if it does
    not find one for  the  root directory structure, and to use it if
    found rather than creating one for the root directory structure.

       $ SWING /0
     or
       $ SWING -0


  /C

    This command qualifier  directs  SWING  to make  SYS$SYSROOT  the
    default device when you  exit  in a  SYS$COMMON  tree, and such a
    tree had been put up via an  argument or logical translation that
    had SYS$SYSROOT as the device.  It may be specified as either:

       $ SWING /C
     or
       $ SWING -C

    When SYS$SYSROOT is part or a directory specification,  trees for
    both the  SYS$SPECIFIC and SYS$COMMON  devices are displayed, and
    an exit in one of these two trees normally makes that device your
    default.


  /S

    This command qualifier  directs  SWING  to make  SYS$SYSROOT  the
    default device when you exit in a  SYS$SPECIFIC  tree, and such a
    tree had been put up via an  argument or logical translation that
    had SYS$SYSROOT as the device.  It may be specified as either:

       $ SWING /S
     or
       $ SWING -S
!
2 /HELP
  This command qualifier displays basic syntactical help for SWING.
  It may be specified as either:

2 /VERSION
  This command qualifier displays the current version of SWING.  It
  may be specified as either:

     $ SWING /V
   or
     $ SWING -V
!
2 /FILEMANAGER
  This command qualifier starts SWING in the  File Manager  screen,
  bypassing the Directory Manager.  It may be specified as either:

     $ SWING /F
   or
     $ SWING -F

2 /0
  This command  qualifier directs Swing to look for a master (total
  device) directory structure  file (see Settings_Files) if it does
  not find one for  the  root directory structure, and to use it if
  found rather than creating one for the root directory structure.

     $ SWING /0
   or
     $ SWING -0
!
2 /C
  This command qualifier  directs  SWING  to make  SYS$SYSROOT  the
  default device when you  exit  in a  SYS$COMMON  tree, and such a
  tree had been put up via an  argument or logical translation that
  had SYS$SYSROOT as the device.  It may be specified as either:

     $ SWING /C
   or
     $ SWING -C

  When SYS$SYSROOT is part or a directory specification,  trees for
  both the  SYS$SPECIFIC and SYS$COMMON  devices are displayed, and
  an exit in one of these two trees normally makes that device your
  default.
!
2 /S
  This command qualifier  directs  SWING  to make  SYS$SYSROOT  the
  default device when you exit in a  SYS$SPECIFIC  tree, and such a
  tree had been put up via an  argument or logical translation that
  had SYS$SYSROOT as the device.  It may be specified as either:

     $ SWING /S
   or
     $ SWING -S

  When SYS$SYSROOT is part or a directory specification,  trees for
  both the  SYS$SPECIFIC and SYS$COMMON  devices are displayed, and
  an exit in one of these two trees normally makes that device your
  default.

2 Help
  There are two kinds of online help within SWING.   Quick menus are
  available via its ? option, and standard VMS help is available via
  its H option.

  A full User Manual and Tutorial (SWING_MANUAL.MEM) is available as
  well.  See the system manager if you do not know where it is kept.
!
2 Settings_Files

  SWING creates several files which are documented in the online help.
  By default, these files are created in SYS$LOGIN.  SWING may be told
  to use another directory by defining the logical name  SWING$SAVE to
  equate to the desired directory.
