Program: convert.exe 07/25/90
Programmer: George Kerber
Purpose: Converts existing S:BADGER.DATA (pre BADGER 2.0) to the new
format to be used by BADGER 2.0 and later versions.
If you are upgrading BADGER from an earlier version (or 1.04 or less),
your s:badger.data file is incompatible with (version 2.0 above) newer
versions. CONVERT is a conversion program that will convert your old
s:badger.data file to a compatible file type. There is no need to convert
your data-file if you are not using a registered version of Badger.
Shareware versions of Badger cannot share data-files.
Before starting, make a copy of your old data file.
1> copy s:badger.data s:badger.old
To convert your file, it must be located in your s: directory and named
badger.data. If you are using the program per the documentation, this will
be the default configuration.
Simply enter 'convert' at the AmigaDOS prompt. If your data file is of
the old type, it will be converted to the new format.
Your data file can now be read by the new Badger program.
This change was necessary to accommodate the new reference year field in the
Badger program.
