Short: Build 'RECENT' file from master AmiNET INDEX (CLI)
Author: pasc8891@raven.csrv.uidaho.edu
Uploader: pasc8891@raven.csrv.uidaho.edu
Type: util/misc
Problem:
If you've ever been away from AmiNET for several weeks you know
how difficult it can be to catch up. The RECENT file only shows
stuff uploaded over the past one week and the master INDEX file
is too long to read thru to see what's new.
Solution:
BuildRECENT will take the master AmiNET INDEX file (READ WARNING
IN DOCS!!!) and create smaller "RECENT" files with just the files
matching the age you specify. [Output is to STDOUT but you can
use output redirection to get a permanent file somewhere.]
