FILE command N - New files list
This command will list files that have been added to RBBS-PC since a given
date, or since the last time you checked the file list.
You will be prompted for a date after you give the "N" command. Enter the
desired date in numerical format with no characters separating the month,
day, and year. For example, "032090" would list files included on the
system since March 20, 1990. Press [ENTER] at the date prompt to use the
date you last checked for files.
Next, you will be asked for a directory to scan. Type in their name(s) or
number(s) separated by spaces. You can scan all of the directories on
the system by typing "A" at the prompt. Pressing [ENTER] will return you
to the Files Menu.
TIPS:
1. You can obtain a list of directory names and numbers by using the "L"
command.
2. Using "ALL" may result in a time consuming search if the RBBS-PC system
contains many files. You can save time by searching specific
directories.
3. You can stack the N)ew command with a date and category. That is, you
can enter "N MMDDYY" (e.g., "N 032090"), or "N S" to specify files new
since you last checked, directly from the File Menu. You will then be
asked for the directory you would like to scan. You can also
pre-specify the directories to see. E.g., "N 032090 COMM UTIL" lists
are files on or after 03-20-90 in directories COMM and UTIL.
