@rem FASTFREQ.BAT (sample bat)
@rem
@rem Makes an "innie" (dirx.lst) in c:\backup from files on D:\001\car*.*
@rem for instant user access to previously offline files
@rem
@rem Say a user requests some files that are not anywhere on your download
@rem drives but are on your system somewhere.  He wants them right away and
@rem you want to let him at them right away.  How to do it?  Use this
@rem batfile.  You will need to edit some of it.  Specifically, you will
@rem need to have a "Requested Files" area already set up on CDMX2DOR (see
@rem my REQBOB.LST as an example).  Be sure that your CDSONLIN.LST is
@rem edited to include its being able to access your REQBOB.LST (or whatever
@rem you call it.  As you will notice, my REQBOB.LST points to c:\backup
@rem subdirectory so the dirx.lst there must contain a list of the files
@rem that the user is requesting and these files must be in c:\backup for
@rem him to download.  The files he wants are on Drive\Sub D:\001 and the
@rem files begin with CAR.  My home directory where I am starting this
@rem bat file is C:\cdbob.
@rem
@rem make appropriate changes to c:\backup     (your Req'File subdirectory)
@rem make appropriate changes to D:\001\CAR*.* (the file area/type user wants)
@rem make appropriate changes to c:\cdbob      (your startup subdirectory)
@rem
@rem You will need to adjust your dlc# as necessary to make it look
@rem right (if there is an associated files.bbs on the D:\001 drive).
@rem Different files.bbs's exist; some have dates/size, some not.  If they
@rem do have date/size already in them then a dlc# around -14 ought to get
@rem it right in the dirx.lst; if they don't have date/size, then a 0 will
@rem get it about right.  If you have download counters in those files.bbs's
@rem and no date/size info, then you'll need to have the width of your
@rem dl counters from bracket-to-bracket, e.g., dlc#=6 for a [0000] dlc.
@rem Experiment and see what happens.
@rem
@rem Your D:\001\CAR*.* could be a *.zip or a h*.arj or whatever.
