- File Description
- ───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- RALPURGE.EXE This is the executable (honest)
- RALPURGE.CFG This is the configuration file for the above
- RALPURGE.DOC This is the RALPURGE documentation. You are reading it!
- FILE_ID.DIZ This is a brief description of the archive.

- └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
- RALPURGE is a wee utility designed to intelligently purge records from your
- RA log file. I found that my log file was getting large and rather than
- delete it in my daily/weeky bat file I wanted to have it purged retaining
- the last x number of days. This is specially useful for programs which
- read the log file for recent activity (eg THEYDID etc). If the RA log file
- is deleted then it seems (incorrectly) to be that there is no recent
- activity. I couldn't find anything to do this for me so I wrote it myself.

- │░░░▒▒▒▓▓▓ Installing RALPURGE ▓▓▓▒▒▒░░░│
- └───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
- Ok, by now you have alreadfy unzipped the archive into a directory of your
- choosing. All you have to do now is the configure RALPURGE. Load the
- config file - RALPURGE.CFG - into your favorite editor and configure it
- accordingly. The following parameters are allowed...
-
-
- NUMBER OF DAYS =
-
- This determines how many days will be left in the log file starting from
- the current date.
- eg. if the date is 3.8.95 and NUMBER OF DAYS = 12, then only records with
- the dates 23.7.95 thru 3.8.95 will be left in the log file. All others
- will be purged.
-
-
- LOG FILE =
-
- This is the path and file name of the RA log file.
- eg. LOG FILE = d:\log\ra1.log
-
-
- DEBUG =
-
- If this is set to Y then the number of records purged will be displayed.
-
-
- Save the config file. All you now have to do is put the a command in
- your bat file which runs the BBS to run RALPURGE (I run RALPURGE once a
- week in my weekly maintenance run). If you put RALPURGE in a directory
- c:\ralpurge the following should be added...
-
- CD\RALPURGE
- C:\RALPURGE\RALPURGE
-
- Thats all there is to it!
