- Short: MUIfied SetOwner/MProtect command for muFS
- Author: Allan Odgaard <Duff@DK-Online.DK>
- Uploader: Allan Odgaard <Duff@DK-Online.DK>
- Version: 1.2 (8-Jan-97)
- Type: util/sys
- Requires: Kick 39+, 68020 or better, MUI 3.1+.
-
-
- This is a MUIfied SetOwner & MProtect command (2 in 1) for
- MultiUserFileSystem.
-
- It is made with the intention that it should be used together with the new
- and great DirectoryOpus V5.5, but you can use it however you want!
-
-
- * Features:
- ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
- o If you try to change the protection mask, or owner, of a file that you
- doesn't own yourself, then you'll be prompted with a password requester,
- where you can enter the needed password, or the roots :)
-
- o It can recursively process a complete directory with subdirectories...
-
- o Protection bits are set using a "Set" and a "Clear" mask.
-
- o Has "Ok | All | Skip | Abort" gadgets for processing of multiple files.
-
- o Uses MagicUserInterface. Unfortunatly not all think of this as a feature ;(
-
- o You can set wether it should also change the owner of a file.
-
-
-
- * Install:
- ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
- Copy it to C:
-
- It takes 3 CLI arguments:
-
- Files/A/M:
- The files you wish to process.
-
- All=Recursive/S:
- Set this if it should also protect the contents of directories.
- (this can also be toggled via the menus)
-
- NSO=NoSetOwner/S:
- Set this if it shouldn't change the owner of files.
- (this can also be toggled via a checkmar)
-
- *** START OF WARNING! ***
-
- Please give it a stack of atleast 8kb.
- If you experience any problems, then raise it to 16kb.
- If you still have problems then please contact me!
-
- **** END OF WARNING! ****
-
-
- * Usage:
- ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
- It should be rather logical, however please notice the menus, and also the
- context sensitive menus over the "Set" and "Clear" groups!
- If you once enter the roots password, then it'll remember this one until it
- quits.

-
- * Bugs:
- ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
- If you process the contents of a dir, then it won't prompt you for a password
- when it fails to protect/change owner on a file, but instead just skip that
- file.
-
-
- * ToDo:
-
- Some proper amigaguide documentation...
