- Short: Calculate the total size of an Aminet index
- Author: P-O Yliniemi
- Uploader: P-O Yliniemi
- Type: util/rexx
-
- This is an Arexx script written for Edge v1.704. The script
- can easily be changed to work with other editors.
-
- Bugs: Doesn't support Aminet files larger than 99.9M
-
- Total size must be smaller than something around
- 2.300.000.000K (or was it 4.600.000.000K ?).
-
- Doesn's support index files with more than 4.600.000.000
- entries (Aminet IS growinn...).
-
- SLOW, around 11 lines/second on my computer (A500,
- VXL-30 33MHz accel, 18Meg mem). I will rewrite this in
- Assembler soon.
-
- Test with the index file (30-May-95) gave the following result:
- Files: 16499
- Size: 2551349.2K = 2491.5M
