PmDELDUP
PmDELDUP was written specifically for licensed users of PmCat and
PmCat+ and will be sent to each user who decides to register either
version of PmCat.
PmDELDUP will find all of the files with duplicate filenames in
your PmCat catalog and then display them along with their sizes and
pathnames (locations).
PmDELDUP incorporates the same interface present in PmCat+. That
is, it has mouse support and pick lists to select your catalog(s).
There is also the same context sensitive help for the menus.
Using PmDELDUP:
1. Read in a catalog file.
2. Select View from the menu.
3. (optionally) Sort the files if desired.
4. Use <SPACEBAR> to mark those files you wish to delete.
Once the marking is done you will no longer be able to fully
view those files. The marker in the first letter of the file-
name was just put there for possible reference.
You leave the screen with <ESC> and if you wish to view the
files again, the ones you marked for deletion will no longer
be on the display.
5. Write the changed catalog to disk.
THIS OPERATION OVERWRITES YOUR OLD PMCAT CATALOG AND THE FILES
YOU DELETED WITH PMDELDUP ARE GONE, GONE, GONE!
If you made an error in marking, just <R>ead in the original
catalog again and you will be back at the starting point with
nothing lost except a few minutes of time.
I'm trying to think of an efficient way to allow un-marking of files
as that is obviously a convenient feature ... but it eludes me for
the time being.
