MUPDATE version 1.0
-------------------
MUPDATE is a little utility which updates automatically request magics for
BINKLEY (the names of the OKFILES are taken from BINKLEY.CFG) and deletes odd
files. MUPDATE uses a configuration file with the following structure
(example):
d:\fidonode\log\mupdate.log 100
nodelist e:\nodelist\nodelist.* 2
pointlst e:\nodelist\points24.* 3
bt-beta e:\bt-beta\bt241*.* 2
...
The first line is the name of a logfile (necessary) which will be cut to 100
lines after every run. The next lines are names of magics, filenamepatterns
and an optional number.
MUPDATE searches for the newest file matching a filenamepattern and updates
the path of the corresponding magic in the three OKFILES (if no file matches,
nothing is changed). The (optional) number controls the maximum number of
files matching the pattern which will 'survive'. If there are 5 files matching
and the number is 2, then the three oldest (timestamp) files are deleted.
There is one option in the commandline:
-q: Be quiet. Only log to the logfile
