Whats New for UPLOADER. Version 1.01
Added more information at completion. You will be told how many records were
read, how many records were written, how many HDR files were processed, and
how many Search & Replace's were performed.
New Options (switches):
* Represents the wildcard *.*, means apply your instructions to ALL
.HDR files in the directory. Do NOT use *.*, always use the single
asterisk.
R/r Search and Replace: UPLOADER will only replace the uploader name, if
the one currently in the record matches your search entry.
L/l Literal: UPLOADER will update the Uploader name with the new name
EXACTLY as you enter it. This allows you to enter names like
SDN Network, without having the default PROPER case applied, which
results in Sdn Network.
These switches can be in any case, and can be anywhere on the command line,
UPLOADER.DOC has a few examples.
UPLOADER now PACKS the HDR file as it updates, entries that have been
deleted while in RAMGR, still leave bits and pieces, dead space, that
results in larger files.
UPLOADER does NOT Pack the index or description files, so it is NOT meant as
a replacement for the RAFILE COMPRESS command that updates everything.
LISTREC.EXE
Have included a pretty basic viewer, which will list records in one or all
HDR files. Will list to screen or to printer. Whipped this up to quickly
view files after doing a test run with UPLOADER.
It will display something like this
[ FDB11.HDR ]
File Size Password Uploader

See LISTREC.DOC for more.....
