- Intro....
- ***************************************
-
- This program splits the Index-file from Aminet into several smaller.
- The files created are named XXXX.dir, where 'XXXX' is the path and
- filename of your choice, and 'dir' is the dir(not sub-dir) which the
- file is a list over.
-
- Example:
- INDEX is split into
- DH0:AminetIndex/list.biz
- DH0:AminetIndex/list.comm
- DH0:AminetIndex/list.demo
- DH0:AminetIndex/list.dev

- ***************************************
- Usage...
- ***************************************
-
- Open AISW.rexx in a texteditor, and change the 2 config-lines.
- Run it with 'rx' from a cli.
- example (you never know) : 'SYS:rexxc/rx rexx:AISWR.rexx'
-
- This program dosen't take much CPU, almost none.
- But it does take time (thanx to rexx, not me (almost not anyway).
- on my computer it takes aprox 15min (yepp i know, but its better than
- doing it in a text-editor).
-
- ***************************************
- Why?
- ***************************************
-
- Why did i make it???
- Well, before this progg, i used a texteditor to cut and save all
- those list-files (didn't take 5 minutes :),
- so .. why not make a proggram to do it for me?
-
- Why did i send it to aminet???
- After all DL from aminet, i figured it was time to send something in
- return, soo..
