- M.I.A. Files
- ------------
-
-
- Several folks have asked about the files that inevitably disappear from one
- SNIPPETS release to the next. Some have gone so far as to suggest I include
- a brief rationale within SNIPPETS.NDX why each deleted entry (marked with a
- '-' in the first column) was dropped. This would be impractical since
- SNIPPETS.NDX is more than a simple index - it also acts as the control file
- for SNIPDIFF. As such it is maintained by a separate program and its entries
- read in order when producing SNIPDIFF. More importantly, its file
- verification tag is computed during the automatic maintenance cycle.
-
- In other words, it's more work than I want to tackle right now, OK?
-
- This file is therefore a separate list of all the files deleted from SNIPPETS
- since the last release along with the reason they were removed:
-
- Pdn.Lst : New list not received in time, also questionably useful
- Rg_Qsort.C1 : Renamed Rg_Qsort.C
- Rg_Qsort.C2 : Renamed Rgiqsort.C
- Vio.H : Redundant with Scrnmacs.H, also large model only code
- Vio.Asm : Redundant with Vidport.C, also large model only code
