This is a quick and dirty edition of QVWEED.DOC so I won't go into boring
details.
MISSION: Everyone should have a mission statement, and so does QVWEED. It's
purpose is to facilitate the expedient acquisition of compiled binary virii.
Basically, what you do is tell QVWEED what directory your virii are kept and
using either TBAV or F-PROT (whichever you have in your system), determine
which particular files you have. QVWEED creates a QVWEEDER.LST which contains
all the virii your AV program detected in the provided directory. What
seperates this product from TBWEEDER is the fact that it can check three
different archive types (ZIP, ARJ, LZH) if you have them on your system and
in your enviroment path. Once you have your *.LST file, when you receive a
collection from someone for the purpose of trading, just rerun QVWEED giving
the directory of the other collection, and QVWEED will use your QVWEEDER.LST
to either sort out the dupes or pull missing virii from their collection and
place them in a sub-directory named "MISSING". Simple.
SYNTAX:
QVWEED is simple to use. If you need to make your QVWEEDER.LST, just type:
"QVWEED /dir:your\virus\dir\ [/fprot]"
^^^^^^--If you use F-PROT
If you get another collection and want to compare them then type:
"QVWEED /dir:their\virus\dir\ /qvweeder.lst [/fprot]"
This will have QVWEED copy the missing virii into /MISSING for you.
If you want QVWEED to just delete the duplicates in the new collection:
"QVWEED /dir:their\virus\dir\ /qvweeder.lst /dupe [/fprot]"
That's all there is to it. And if you just want to compare lists without
having the collections available, get a copy of my VCOMP. the QVWEEDER.*
files are compatible with what it uses to do comparisons.
That's it. If you have any problems or complaints let me know, this is a
first generation beta copy so I appreciate all bug reports.
