About DiskFIleName to DateFileName
──────────────────────────────────
FIL2DATE.EXE is a very simple and useful utility written to save a disk
file and renaming it to the todays date. As a SysOp, there are several
bulletins, caller files, download files, etc that I like to keep for
historic record. This program very simply takes the "disk file" and
renames it to todays_date.HIS
The usage is very straight forward! FIL2DATE FILENAME.EXT
As an example, I have a disk file named BLT13 (Who Called Today). I
run an event just before midnight and run this command line:
FIL2DATE BLT13
Saying todays date is 01-12-94, the program will rename BLT13 to
011294.HIS. I then use PKZIP and add it to the history .ZIP.
My event looks like this:
cd\pcb\blts
copy blt13 blt14 (blt14 is my who called yesterday)
fil2date blt13
pkzip -a tbb-blt *.his
del *.his
del blt13
I now have a .ZIP with every BLT13 inside of the tbb-blt.zip and
they ALL are dated!
