CD'S AND FRED FRISH/FROZEN FISH ARE ALLOWED TO ADD THIS PROGRAM TO THEIR

LONG : VIPfilelister creates a seperate file list for each ABBS
conference that contains files uploaded privatly to it.
It then installs all of these filelists in ABBS as private
uploads to the different conferences with P.U. to C. files.
The sysop can easily configure where the TEMPORARY files should be,
where they should be installed in ABBS (DIRNAME) and what file
formats they should be available in. Prefs uses a nice
GadTools 2.04+ GUI :)
Usage: VIPfilelister
VIPfilelister -c (For prefs/config)
You have to run VIPfilelister manually once to configur it.
After that you can include it in your CyberCron script etc.
Info : The first time you run VIPfilelister you'll have to configure the
program to your needs. After that you just run the program and it
does everything! You can for instance run it through CyberCRON at
a certain time each night to update ALL your VIP filelists.
Nice & easy.
Required files:
C:COPY
C:DELETE
ABBS:ADDFILE (2.5 (19.Feb.95 OR with equal command args)
ABBS must be running!
How2Install:
Copy VIPfilelister where you want it, just make sure that "Copy" &
"Delete" is in the C: directory and that you have "Addfile" in the
ABBS: directory
$VER: VIPfilelister 1.1 (10-May-1995) ©1995 Stig Bjåland
$HISTORY:
1.1 Third release - 10 May 95
More text output added. ("Installing FILENAME")
Bugfixes:
Sometimes some dirnames was missing in some lists - fixed.
VIPfilelister installed *.txt format lists even if that option
was off - fixed.
Date format was in FORMAT_CDN not in the ABBS format, and
the list was not exactly like the one ABBS produces. Now it's
100% equal to the ABBS output so THOR and other programs that
parses the filelist will have no troubles.
(Dirnames also missed an "/" - fixed, and "I" on files with
information added)
1.0 Second release - 06 May 95
Bugfix:
Findfile in ABBS didn't work :-(
0.9 First release - 28 Apr 1995
