version 0.2
Intro:
-----
This utility will replace expand your ability to remove and wipe out files
from your File Bases. What it does is delete your files just like DLG does,
which moves the files to FILE:KilledFiles, and can also delete the file
from the Hard Drive.
Requirements:
------------
OS2.04+
dlg.library
dos.library (ROM)
exec.library (ROM)
DLG 1.0
Technical Info:
--------------
fdDelete in all respects is safe to OS 2.1(I have 2.1), and requires OS 2.04 to
run. fdDelete will delete the .fd files and remove the descriptions from the
file.dat file, and will also either move the file to FILE:KilledFiles directory or
just delete the file. This utility should be safe to all OS above version 37.175.
Also if you decide to use this utility I will not be responsible for any damages
that may be cuased on your computer. All of the moving and deleting are done by
the ROM functions, all of the removing of the File Descriptions from File.Dat is
done with the DLG.Library.
Usage:
-----
Make a menu entry on your File Menu and call it whatever you want with
following info:
fdDelete %FILE_FILENUMBER
OVERLAY
Lower Level 255
Upper Level 255
I recommend that only the Sysop and maybe the CoSysop be given access to use
this command, since it will delete the file off of the HD if the wipe option is
used. To delete a file, just punch in the file number and the letter you used
to run the command (ei. 134D).
Version:
-------
0.1 (8152 bytes) First Release
0.2 (8152 bytes) Bug Fix - File Protection Bits were not handled properly and
would cuase a whole directory to have all protection
bits removed (ei the 'R' bit, and now noone can
download the file becuase the Read bit is missing).
Now it respects the file bits, and will only add
file bits 'ED' to either move or delete the file,
it will not touch them unless you 'Wipe' or 'Remove'
the file.
Bug Fix - If you did not specify the %FILE_FILENUMBER argument
the utility would not complain, and on rare instances
could cuase a memory failure since it did not check.
Now it will complain properly
Future:
------
0.3-0.4 Further bug fixes or internal releases.
0.5 More configurabity (ei. change were Removed files go).
0.9 Add a user interface(before this version it is Sysop Only)
That will allow users to request OLD, CURRUPT, or incomplete to be
deleted later by the sysop.
1.0 Get rid of all bugs in 0.9 version and possibly make the user interface
configurable(ei. add your own reasons to have files deleted).
Support: (BUGS, Suggestions, etc...)
