M2Du 3.71 - By Greg Browne - CIS [72250,106]
~~~~~~~~~
DirUtil in Modula-2 - 50-1000 files CLI or WB.
Last modified by author 11-16-88
DISCLAIMER: I deny everything! I only wrote this for me!
If it doesn't work for you, don't use it!
-------3.71
Changed COPYALL and COPYif. NEITHER CREATES EMPTY DIRECTORIES.
COPYALL will create them if you start it with RMB.
(Got rid of the "fake" copyall stuff).
COPYif does not create a directory UNLESS it must copy one of the files
in the source directory. (Prevents making empty trees on update copying).
Added "S"cript and "P"ure bits to the Sho/SetPROT functions.
NOTE: THESE FUNCTIONS SHOW OR CHANGE BITS, NOT Status of permission.
"A" - cleared whenever file is written to, so if NOT set, file is changed.
"P" - set to show "P"ure re-entrant file.
"S" - set to show "S"cript file.
"RWED" - set to deny permission - clear to allow permission.
-------3.70
Added <DIR> to filewindow (for colorblind people). Also Dir's show date
when in DATES mode.
Gave NORMAL/FAST(dir) its own real gadget. Shrank others to make room. There
are now 76 gadgets, and about 40 of them do at least two different things.
MAKEDIR now creates whole paths. IF you MAKEDIR "df0:my/dir/too" and
NONE of it exists, it will make the whole path for you, if it can.
New Hidden GADGET (thanks Fred Kuhn for the idea). Use the RIGHT mouse on
top of the PRT:PAR:SER: gadget to dump a sorted (or unsorted if that is
selected) directory listing to whatever device or file is showing there. If
you use #Ofile to change the SER: name to "dump" it can be dumped into
a file named "dump". The dump will include BOTH the size and date.
RIGHT mouse on the "R" window will return you to R-History-Item-0.
RIGHT mouse on the slider duplicates the f->D&S button, putting the first
highlighted dir onto both "S" & "D" and getting "S" (If it is a file, it
is appended to "D", but not "S".
ALSO Devices with less than 4 characters (i.e. c: or l:) will now go
properly in command sourcing. Before, they made a mess. So you can do
#8c: or #4m2: as a device replacement.
-------3.69
New hidden gadget. If 'D' is hit with RIGHT Mouse it will toggle a
flag for RAW or SORTED directories. The flag takes effect immediately.
For simplicity, going TO RAW causes a re-read of the directory.
Also changed title bar for more info
nnnn/mmmm 00:00 R-00 [cccccc/cccccc] [fffffff/fffffff] tttttttt
--------- ----- ---- -------------------------------------------
files 24 hr 'R' CHIPmem FASTmem TOTALmem
curr/max time hist [avail/lgst] [avail/lgst] Avail
item
Also set up so Iconified window (if active) can be unshrunk by RIGHT mouse
anywhere on screen. (Hanging gadget still works, too)
Fixed PRINT/HPRINT to cause FF ONLY when RightMouseButton used.
-------3.68
Changed View mousebutton usage for movement.
LEFT mouse = move continuous (top ½ = toward top / bottom ½ = toward bottom)
RIGHT mouse = move ONE LINE PER CLICK (same ½'s)
Fixed "B" command in Du.hist to work after startup or from .hist file
It ONLY worked from command tail , in case you hadn't noticed.
RMB used in an unrecognized place, brings up the Version/Author/Date info.
-------3.67
Rearranged gadgets a little (sorry) for new ones...
ArcTAG = tag if Archive bit set LEFT mouse=files RIGHT mouse=dirs
WinTAG = tag if in window range LEFT mouse=files RIGHT mouse=dirs
D+f->D = ADD highlighted file (or dir) to 'D' with / if needed
f->S/D = do D+f->D and then GetDir if it is a Directory.
Added RIGHT Mouse to COPYALL - Copies structure but not content.
i.e. All files are created 0 bytes long. I use this to save a structure,
like the old program DCAT did. (REMOVED 3.71)
-------3.66 not released
-------3.65
Fixed a couple of things that didn't work as advertised. Now accepts
blank lines in Du.hist & supresses sys requesters during copy again.
The APPARENT slow load was due to reading Du.Hist BEFORE opening the
window. Now it just reads it after again, so it will seem faster.
Added ability to read a single setup command from "R" gadget by entering
it (with # and all) in the "R" gadget and clicking RIGHT mouse on "R".
-------3.64
Added Commands to Du.hist and ability to read history file from within DU.
Sample Du.hist file shows what and how. Increased "R" to 20 items.
Now DU.hist file can specify EDitor name, SHOWname,initial directory,
run command and others (see the sample).
ALSO, ShowIFF will use internal routine ALWAYS when started with RIGHT mouse.
-------3.63 and older - find old file
