How to get it:
First you must be sure that FQuery WORKS for you. The unregistered
version does EVERTHING except create outgoing packets. The outbound
response messages are displayed in the CLI instead. You may capture
these to a file and examine them to be sure that the messages are
proper.
You can also use the TEST function to test various queries and be
sure that your filelist is in the expected format to produce properly
formatted response messages.
FQuery expects that file entries in your filelist start in column
2, in other words, each filename is preceeded with a space. FQuery
will treat ALL text lines that are preceeded with a single space as a
file entry. It will ignore lines that have a character in column 1
or are not description continuation lines as defined by the DESC_NUM
and DESC_COL entries in your config.
The utility FQCheckList can be used to scan your filelist. It will
output some statistics with which you may determine if your filelist
is compliant with FQuery requirements. It takes as arguments the
fullpathname of your filelist, the start column of the file
description and the word number in the line of the description.
Another method to test for filelist compliance is to issue the
commands:
SetEnv FQSEARCH DESC_COL,DESC_NUM ;use the actual values
;not the variable names
FQsearch FullPathNameOfFileList #? -f
The output should display all the file entries from your filelist,
properly formatted.
IF you find FQuery meets your needs, request a keyfile via ROUTED
or crash netmail, including your TESTED configuration in the message.
If you are accepted as a user, you will be notifed by ROUTED netmail.
Your keyfile will be placed on hold for you in an archive with your
name.
Whenever the source is changed a new FQuery archive will be
created, containing the current version. Updated archives are
automatically placed on hold and a netmail message sent to each
registered user.
