- MFlo is designed to move the listed files in a Bink/Opus style .flo
- file to a different target directory, such as is needed during
- Internet FTP transfers. The source file is either copied,
- truncated, or deleted as flagged in the .flo file. Any file listed
- which can not be successfully copied to the new directory is left
- listed in the .flo file. Successful operation deletes the entry
- from the .flo file. If all files processed successfully, the .flo
- file is deleted. Truncated mail files allow for correct file
- extension incrementing by the mail tosser.
-
- MFlo is completely command line driven, and as such can be used in
- batch files. Full Binkley/Opus style logging is available for all
- actions MFlo does. A test mode is also available, where the .flo
- file is read, but no actual processing is done. Sample logs are
- included in the distribution archive.
-
-
- Command line:
-
- MFlo -f<flofile> -d<targetdir> [-l[logname]] [-t]
-
-
- Command line options:
-
- -f<flofile> .flo file name (drive and path included)
- (Note: a simple text file list could also be
- used, one file per line, although truncating
- and deletion would not occur.)
-
- -d<path> Destination Directory (drive and path only)
-
- -l Activate logging - by itself, invokes default
- log file (mflo.log) in the current working
- directory
-
- -l<logname> Activate logging using named file for logging
- (may include drive and path)
-
- -t Test flag - if present, skips actual file
- processing.
-
- Errorlevels:
-
- Mflo returns 1 if an error occured during processing, otherwise 0.
- (Note: not finding the named .flo file is NOT an error, as there may
- not be anything outbound.
