=============================
New features in WhatArc v2.02
=============================
» Added support for ARJmail. The keywords for the control
file are ARJ_X and ARJ_A.
» Because 'ARCmail' and 'ARJmail' both start with 'A', you
must specify 'ARC' or 'ARJ' after the 'SEND' keyword. An A
is not sufficient.
» WhatArc has an errorlevel translation facility. For each
archive creator and extractor you can specify the
errorlevels it returns when an operation has been
completed successfully:
ARC_X_OK <level> ARC_A_OK <level>
LZH_X_OK <level> LZH_A_OK <level>
ZIP_X_OK <level> ZIP_A_OK <level>
ARJ_X_OK <level> ARJ_A_OK <level>
All 'OK' errorlevels default to zero. WhatArc will return
an errorlevel depending on the result of the archive
operation. This errorlevel is also definable:
NO_ERROR <level> specifies the errorlevel
WhatArc returns when an 'OK'
errorlevel (above) is
returned. Default is zero.
FAILURE <level> specifies the errorlevel
WhatArc returns when an
errorlevel other than 'OK'
(above) is returned. Default
is one.
» Improved logging. Among other things, WhatArc reports the
errorlevel returned by the archiver in the log file.
» New keyword DELPKT:
DELPKT yes
or DELPKT no
When 'Delete Packets' is switched on (default), and
WhatArc is started with an 'M' or '-M' command, it will
check whether the packets exist after the archiver returns
an 'OK' errorlevel. If the packets exist they are deleted.
This is for archivers which can't do a 'Move' operation.
» New keyword NODUPS:
NODUPS yes
or NODUPS no
When this feature is switched on (default), and an
archiver reports an error during extraction, WhatArc will
delete the extracted packets and rename the archive to
.BD0, .BD1, .BD2 etc.
This will prevent the mail processor importing the packets
existing packets and extracting the archive again during
the next run, which would normally cause dups.
