i am, however, curious about you statement... what do you meain by
"limited replace line support"??
Yes, same here <g>
and if one have archive bbs, it might be complete ignored
very true! ;) i once lost years of files that had been distributed...
most of those were lost due to aging off which was handled quite
quickly... others, as you note, were replaced... either by newer versions
with a different name or b others with the same name... different named
ones are easy enough to deal with but same named ones present a different
problem to deal with :?
I think the only files I've "lost" were due to my own sillyness.. like
fat-fingering "rm * ~" Lol.. yes, that was nasty.. I have a safe del
too, that I never use haha.. anyway, I can't think of a time when a
tick caused any files I didn't want cleaned up to be deleted..
A idea could be a script file to use before makenl is running there is checking
for a old nodelist exist and if there is a old nodelist.282 then move it to another directory if you like to have it for some checking of nodes.
When I making my nodelist for other networks is there olny a nodelist from last
run of makenl, but in my file areas for nodediff and nodelist can be older files.
For some years back were I getting zone2 made nodelist and nodediff in uppercase and now is i getting them in lowercase so the old ones in uppercase not have been moved out.
Take care,
Gert
