      DFSee version 6.10 27-07-2004  (c) 1994-2003: Jan van Wijk
 =========================[ www.dfsee.com ]==========================

6.xx includes a menu-system giving access to many of the DFSee functions,
making it MUCH easier to operate for less experienced users as well as
allowing good context-sensitive help-screens to be made available.

Another major improvement is with IMAGING, allowing multiple files, removable
media, and better (smart) compression for filesystems with unused space.
