Short: V1.09 FAST Aminet INDEX/RECENT parser for Thor
Author: dandrea@unix.tfs.net (Daniel J. Andrea II)
Uploader: dandrea@unix.tfs.net (Daniel J. Andrea II)
Type: comm/thor
Distribution: NoCD
Replaces: comm/thor/AminetParse*
This is a small util for adding files from Aminet INDEX/RECENT
filelists. Lots faster than the original arexx scripts.
Includes file area filtering, and now creates NewFiles.txt like
Sortmail does. Fixed date parsing and added proper support
for weekly RECENT listings. Skips extraneous data at the start
of the file and to skip any data for the 'Message of the day:'
if there.
New this version: Fixed parsing of uni-paderborn RECENT files
Second upload: Neil Bothwick was a little slow at getting his
new version of AddAminet.thor to me, so I added it, changed the
docs, and re-uploaded.
Note: I have gotten tired of seeing those 'offers' for a free
Aminet CD, that actually is going to cost me almost as much
as just buying it from here within the USA. As a result,
I have decided to change the distribution of all my software.
I will no longer allow it to be distributed on Aminet CDs
until the 'free' CD for Aminet contributors truly becomes
free again. This policy is subject to change, depending
on what happens with Aminet policy. Only changes in this
archive was to bump program revision and make changes in
documentation to reflect this new policy.
Requires AmigaOS v2.04+ and Thor 2.3+
(at least v4 of bbsread.library in Thor)
