Short: V1.1 GUI to parse AmiNet RECENT files
Author: D.F. Duck
Version: v1.1 (18 May 95)
Type: comm/misc
Long:
RECENT is a mouse driven graphic interface for parsing AmiNet RECENT
files. Interactivly select files to "get" from AmiNet. The result is
a unix-able script to "cd" around AmiNet and "mget" the files.
There are several other programs that do a simular task. The difference
with RECENT over the other ones is its output script will also "get" the
accompanying .readme file.
The reason for getting the .readme files; The SHORT description in the
AmiNet RECENT file is truncated to 40 characters, and it seems most
uploaders use longer SHORT descriptions.
If you have and use the AmiNote program (written by me) it will look for
the existence of the .readme file and pull the untruncated SHORT
description from it. Then add it to the archive file as an AmigaDOS
"filenote". Then optionaly Copy or Move the files to a bbs file directory
or AmiNet Mirror.
RECENT is written in ARexx, then crunched using The ReXXmAsHeR v0.4g.
