-
- LPUT is an automated ZCPR3 library maker. It doesn't replace LU or NULU,
- but will do for LBR creation what LGET does for extraction. Combine LPUT with
- LLF or LDIR and you can reserve the bigger LBR handlers for times when you
- really need them. LPUT automatically builds the right size LBR for the list
- of member files requested, which can be a comma-delimited series of wildcard
- file specs, including DU: and/or DIR: designations, similar to LGET, MCOPY,
- etc.

- Syntax: LPUT dir:lbrfile [dir:afn1.typ,afn2.typ...etc.[+nn]]
-
- Omitting the input filespec results in a LBR entry format & CRC update.
-
- If "lbrfile" is not found, LPUT will create it. In that case, an input
- filespec of "/nn" makes an empty LBR for "nn" members and "+nn" creates
- one with "nn" extra member slots.

- LPUT Notes - 1/2
-
- a. LPUT vs 1.7 incorporates new DSLIB routines that allow it to pick up
- member files' datestamps directly from ZSDOS. This also fixes a bug
- that showed up under ZSDOS where a member file's modified stamp would be
- updated as it was being added to a LBR. Some code crunching to keep the
- size under 6k. Linked with new Version 4 libraries (which now contain
- table-driven CRC routines). Linkage order - now WILDEX, MYSORT, UNDATE,
- DSLIB, Z3LIB, SYSLIB.
-
- b. LPUT vs 1.6b allows a trailing parameter of "+nn" to leave "nn" extra
- LBR directory entries beyond what is required for the member file list.
- This parameter is ignored if the target LBR already exists or if a "/nn"
- occurs first in the command tail. Uses Z33/Z34 CCP parser whenever it's
- available.
-
- c. LPUT vs 1.6a allows storing of last mod date in library directory along
- with cre date.
- LPUT Notes - 2/2
-
- d. LPUT vs 1.5 maintains dates according to the most precise information
- available, either from Datestamper's "!!!TIME&.DAT" files, the LBR's
- DRI-style member dates (ala' SETD.COM) or from CR23D-style imbedded
- datespecs, as appropriate. If DateStamper is not running, it operates
- like previous versions of LPUT.
-
- e. LPUT vs 1.4 adds fully buffered file input, more random reads to survive
- ZRDOS 1.7 and later peculiarities, no more attribits in LBR dir entries.
- Creates new LBR with correct size dir if the specified one does not
- exist. Special syntax: LPUT newlbr /nn will create an entirely empty
- LBR with nn entries. WILDEX lists now sorted via MYSORT. SYSLIB CRC
- routines discarded in favor of a lookup table ala' PPIP. This is ON!
- Systems release version.
