Short: Strip down Aminet .readme in DLG *.fd files Author: bernie@shock.nervous.com (Bernardo Innocenti) Uploader: bernie shock nervous com (Bernardo Innocenti) Type: comm/dlg Version: 1.0 Architecture: m68k-amigaos INTRODUCTION DLGStripFD comes handy when you run a BBS with DLG Pro with an Aminet mirror od CD on-line. If you are annoyed of 10Meg file lists, you'll probably like this little tool. All it does, is cutting down all .fd files to a reasonable lenght. DLGStripFD uses four different criteria: - Removes the "Short:" keyword (but not the description). - Removes the rest of the header (uploader, type...) - Searches for the "Archive contents" part and removes it. - Limits the description to 15 lines. USAGE DLGStripFD FROM Where FROM is an optional filename or AmigaDOS pattern. For exaple, "FILE:(5|6)??/*.fd" will process all files in file areas 500 to 699. If not specified, the FROM argument defaults to "#?.fd" in the current directory. NOTES C source code included.
