File Name: sysedit.exe v.1.00
Description: 16 bit dos/windows file editing program LAN administrators
                may find useful to mass edit workstation system files (or any file for that
 			matter) using tools such as Tivoli. Or use to do routine edits on
		individual workstations.

This Grep-like program will insert strings specified as arguements into any file the user desires.
Upon run, the original file will be copied to filename.tmp. During the copy process,
the user specified strings will be inserted either by line number or in the line
after a search pattern is found.

Features: 	Case sensitive or insensitive find
	  	Insert by line number (First line in file is 0)
		Delete lines found in file

Use a Batch file to replace original file with the *.tmp or to change the file's name
completely.

Syntax: Program_name inputfile switch [findstring] string [string][string][string]
	Quotes are needed around strings
valid swithches:  -a    insert after, sensitive find
		  -ai   insert after, insesitive find
		  -l #  insert into line number #=line number
		  -d	delete any line with the specified string, sensitive find	

example command line: sysedit c:\config.sys -a "DOS=" "set TZ=MST7"
	This will insert the line set TZ=MST7 into the file config.tmp
	after the line containing the string DOS.

This is an as-is program and as such makes no claims as to its reliability. The user will
use it at their own risk.

THIS IS SHAREWARE. Please send $5 to the following address if you intend to
make use of this program. Distribute freely.

INSTALLATION: Just unzip and move to the directory of your choice.
