Advert Cutter/2 v0.1 by sehh
-=============================================================================-
-= What is Advert Cutter/2?
Welcome to my second OS/2 program made with ADA for OS/2. This simple util
will remove lines from file_id.diz files based on a list of lines. When
you run the program, it looks for the text file adcut.wrd, reads each line
and then looks for them in the file_id.diz. If it finds a match then it
erases it from the file_id.diz and zips it back overwriting the old one.
-= Why is it good?
I had alot of problems with file_id.diz files and all the other programs
that i tested couldn't change a read-only file_id.diz, also most of the
other programs needed registration, so these things are fixed now :)
-= Why is it not good?
Because i haven't managed to make it work with multiple zip files, but
i will give you a script that will run my program for each zip file,
yes i know thats not a good idea but until i make it work with multiple
files you will need to use some other way.
-= Soon to come!
Multiple zip file support.
I will combine my two utils Advert Adder/2 and this one, into one util
that will do all the job at once.
-= Command line help
-w <filename> Specify another list file name.
You don't have to specify anything, by default adcut will look for the
adcut.wrd file in the directory that its run from.
Also the run.cmd script can be used for multiple zip files in a directory,
but it passed just the dir/file to adcut and not any other parameters, if
you need to use the -w parameter then you need to edit run.cmd your self.
-= Error Levels
You can use the following error levels with adcut and scripts to monitor
if everything went well.
0 = Program terminated normaly
1 = Command line error
9 = Program/File error
-= How do i find the Author?
