- FMover - RemoteAccess V2.00 File Mover
- Version 1.0
-
- This program will allow you to tag any number of files in one area
- and move them to another file area. You do not have to move Blocks
- of files, you may individually tag them.
-
- This version does not support the file locking used for the files database.
- Please run this ONLY with all nodes shut down.
-
- I have used this myself, and fixed all the bugs I have found, but
- we all know that, odds are, its gonna trash SOMEONE's file base.
- Please make a backup of your FDB files BEFORE you run this for the
- first time.
-
- A couple of the features:
-
- - Tag individual files, not BLOCKS of files.
- - Tag by Filename Match (Wildcards ok)
- - Tag By Keyword Match (matches against filename, or description
- text)
- - Jump To Next Tagged File (To review after a tag by filename or
- keyword)
- - Always shows you how many files are tagged, and total size.
- - Will NOT allow you to even attempt copying to a CDRom
- - As you highlight an area, it shows the drive space free.
- - Checks Free Disk Space before attempting copy.
- - Allows you to assign a NEW Area for each file, then move them
- all at once.
-
-
- This is by no means meant to replace RaMgr. There are many things
- this software will NOT do, such are delete files, rename files,
- import files, Sort areas, and the list goes on. What it does do, is
- make that monthly job of moving new files into their proper area
- much easier.
-
- FMover looks for the FILES.RA and CONFIG.RA files in the directory
- pointed to by the RA environment variable.
-
- This program is limited to 1000 File Areas and 1500 files per area
- If anyone needs more right away, let me know.
-
- If you wish, you may specify a /LIST on the commandline and FMover
- will create an ASCII File called 'FMover.Lst' which will list all
- your file areas. This will come in handy if you want to assign new
- file areas by number. Simply print it out, and keep it handy.
-
- When you are in a file area, hit RETURN at a file, and you will be
- prompted for the area to move the file to. This is where the list
- comes in handy. Once you have tagged all the files you want to move
- with their new areas numbers, simply hit Alt-M to move ALL files to
- their new areas...
