- FETool by Joerg Michael (2:244/1129@fidonet)
- ============================================
-
- Magic filename: FETOOL - current version:
-
- FET_140.ARJ 79758 31.12.93 FastEcho value added tools v1.40
-
- ----- FETool Features --------------------------------------------------------
-
- ■ For FrontDoor/InterMail users: automatic maintenance of your
- FOLDER.FD/.CFG file beyond FastEcho's auto create feature.
- Deletes areas from FrontDoor's/InterMail's setup when they have
- been deleted from FastEcho's area setup. Adds areas you have
- created manually to your mailer's editor setup. The registered
- version also checks for crosslinked areas.
-
- ■ For points and nodes without downlinks: provides an integrated
- basic file echo processor that processes standard *.TIC files and
- moves the associated files to subdirectories according to file
- area names. Files can be announced in a netmail and are,
- optionally, CRC32 checked.
-
- ■ Create echo area lists for different purposes. Command line
- switches let you define the listing by 'groups' and 'read
- security' levels as well as by storage type
- (HMB/Fido/Squish/JAM/PT). The available formats are:
-
- 1. 'human readable' with comment, group, security levels, and
- information on passthru/'rescan'able' status.
- 2. FastEcho AreaFix compatible, used for FastEcho's area request
- forwarding feature.
- 3. simple list containing only area tags, perfect input file for
- DELAREAS and FAKEREQ commands.
- 4. list of "passive" areas. Some people like to kill these.
- 5. list of area tags ordered by group letters
- 6. list of active areas for a specific system
- 7. list of Squish type areas in AREAS.BBS format for editors and
- maintenance tools.
- 8. Yuppie! point system compatible [Yuppie! is a german point
- package This list will be turned into a nice area request menu
- at the Yuppie-point.
- 9. For nodes: create a list of passthru areas with only one link
- ('empty' areas). Also perfect input to DELAREAS.
-
- ■ create AreaFix requests on the fly. No need to create a netmail -
- just connect and disconnect areas from the command line.
-
- ■ For nodes: create 'fake' AreaFix requests from your downlinks to
- *your* AreaFix to connect them to echo areas, to send them area
- setup information or the help file. Simply: create requests on
- behalf of your downlinks.
-
- ■ "Delete" echo areas from FastEcho by command line or list file.
- This function will only delete areas with exactly one link and
- will automatically create areafix-unlink requests to shut down
- these areas.
-
- ■ Automatically delete zero length netmail message files. Some
- programs may leave these behind due to bugs.
