║ UpTriBBS - What is it? ║
╙───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╜
This program is a companion utility to help interface UpCheck with
TriBBS a little more closely. It will convert your FILES.LST file
to the correct binary mode as wanted by TriBBS, but in addition it
will remove the duplicate file entry that TriBBS creates, and take
any additional information from the description entered by the user
if a FILE_ID.DIZ did not exist in the archive.
Usage: UPTRIBBS <full_path_and_filename>
or: UPTRIBBS <pathname>
You can run this in your BETWEEN.BAT file to reset your uploads
directory after the user logs off, or after each upload if you
prefer..
For example:
UPTRIBBS C:\FILES\UPLOADS
Also, if you wanted to run it after each file uploaded, you can
also run it with something like:
UPTRIBBS C:\FILES\UPLOADS\THEGAME.ZIP
And it will correctly update the file listing for the Uploads
directory also. You should make sure that you have your file
setttings correctly set in UpSetup before using this program,
as it requires to know whether you are using a matchup file
or straight processing.
This program has one limitation, and that is that it will not
remove any duplicate entries after about 5000 file entries,
so if you have more than 5000 files in your uploads directory,
you might have to sort them out before using this program.. :)
