POF! - Plenty Of Files
Yet Another File Listing Utility
November 92
*** PUBLIC DOMAIN AND UNSUPPORTED ***
>>> WHAT?
---------
POF! is a filelister for LazyBBS, it produces the master list of files
of your board. The list can be put for download for users, and/or be
requestable under the FILES fidonet magic freq name.
It was written for use with LazyBBS, but can be used with for any
board using FILES.BBS like download areas. LazyBBS is Fidonet BBS
software for a Pandora message base, currently available on Unix
and Atari STs.
To port it, look at the beginning pof.c for defines... and compile
pof.c. Unix users don't forget to convert crlf text files to lf files
if your copy comes from with crlf.
>>> HOW?
--------
You call _pof_ with the configuration file on the command line, and
the output will be sent to stdout (the console as default, can/should
be redirected).
Command line options:
-d<days> (NOT -d <days>) may be used to produce a list of only
recent files.
-l<logfile> log errors and filelist report to a standard fido log
Example: pof pof.cfg >allfile.txt
pof -d30 pof.cfg >lastmonth.txt
pof -lpof.log another.pof >another.txt
The format of the pof.cfg file is:
- Any line beginning with ; is a comment
- Any line beginning with @ or # is a control line:
@<file> file to be included
#<comment> comment to be included in the output
- Any line not beginning with ; or # or @ is a path to be scanned.
Example:
-----<cut>----------------<cut>----------------<cut>--------
