- Short: Converts AmiNet Index to DataBase Import
- Author: Carsten_Pluntke@ouzonix.bo.open.de (Carsten Pluntke)
- Uploader: t.esser@darkness.gun.de
- Type: util/conv
-
- This utility converts the AmiNet Index files to these files you can import
- into DataBase programs like SuperBase or MaxonTwist and (hopefully) many
- others.
-
- Features are:
-
- 1) Trimmed database fields (no leading and trailing spaces)
-
- 2) Fast! (at about 22 seconds parsing an 1MB index file on an A3000-25)
-
- 3) Optionally including a list identifier into the records. (Like
- the number of the CD)
-
- 4) Auto-detecting list field widths
- Useful for these guys having AmiNet CD 3 and earlier together
- with AmiNet CD 5 and up, because the width of the Name field varies
- slightly, making other programs with fixed-width fields screw up.
