     NAME
            Filenote - Sets a comment for a file.

     SYNOPSIS
            Filenote [File]filename Comment

     DESCRIPTION
            You can set a comment for a file of up to 79 
        characters using this command.  You can also remove the 
        comment for a file using this command by specifying a 
        null comment string.  Comments may be viewed with the 
        list command.

            When you COPY a file, the note does not get copied 
        with it.  When you RENAME a file, the note stays attached 
        to that file.  If you change the file in any way, except 
        COPYing it, the file note does not get effected. If you 
        add another filenote to a a file that already has one, 
        then the old one gets deleted and the new one replaces 
        it.

            If you LIST a directory, these filenotes are 
        displayed. The notes will appear right below the file 
        name with a : in front of it.  If there is an icon 
        attached to that file, then you can read or a note 
        through that icon's information window.

            These filenotes do not effect the file they are 
        attached to in anyway what so ever.
