MOD2LIST (P,R,TM) 1993 Sôfí. 94JAN08
Version 2.04
USAGE: MOD2LIST [?] | [infile outfile] {[-Uuserdefined8chars] |
[-UD] | [-D]}
What the beeep is MOD2LIST anyway:
MOD2LIST is a utility to make an ASCII list of music modules. With
the moduleinfo in an ASCII-file you can add any comment to them
like favourites or genre or artist/group or where you got them from
and so on.
Parameters:
?
= Short help screen.
<infile>
= Ascii list of moduledosnames with/without path.
How to make an infile: "DIR filespecs /B >infilename^m".
<outfile>
= Becomes a list of the aforementioned + dossize +
modulesongname.
-Uuserdefined8chars
= Sets the 8char field after the size of the module to
whatever is written except anything with spaces or spaced
out.
-UD
= Sets the 8usercharfield to the (current) date like yymondd.
Hints:
It is an extremely good idea to run my ADJUST.EXE util on the mods
FIRST. Then the dosnames in the outlist will be plain for everyone
and save you some desperate editing later. Also run ADJUST B4 ul to
any bbs and if you can write the WHOLE name + special chars in the
filedesciption. (+ author or origin of the module) ThAnX!
If you want to really top things off then also run modclean by
Torben Thellefsen before this program. Then the modules will be
stripped of insignificant bytes & unused pattern data. I saved 4,5
Mb of harddrive space running Modclean on the 1650 amigatype modules
I have. The PC types are still a minority in my collection.
Authors suggested use:
Make a batch file with this in it:
REM Mod2List callfile v2.03 (P) 93DEC05 mikkel breiler.
@ECHO OFF
DIR %1 /B >TEMP
MOD2LIST TEMP -U%2 >%3
DEL TEMP
and you will have a file that deletes the temporary file and
produces an ASCII file with the module's data in it.
Run that file for example like this in a dir with some appropiate
modules:
MOD2LIST.BAT *.mod 93-12-05 93DEC05-A.NMO
And you should get a file called 93DEC05-A.NMO (New MOdules for
that day) which you can play around with like use for BBS comments
or swaplists or impress your pet with.
Supported moduleformats:
See included file MODTYPES.LST.
Final words:
For any sensible reason: mikkel breiler, oestre allé, 3250
gilleleje, DK. Send a postcard now - tell me your thoughts on
MOD2LIST or any of my other utilities such as ADJUST or MODTYPE.

P.S. my alias is "Sofi" or "Sôfí" if the chars are available where you see
it.
