-
- Trion Bulkupload is an automated way to upload high numbers
- of files at a time with online one doscommand.
-
- Every file section has a directory where the fysical files are
- stored.
- When Bulkupload is started it will scan all files in these
- directories and check if they are present in the filecatalogue.
- If a file is not preset it will try to Add this file.
-
- Optionally you can let it process at single file section
- instead of all. Which is faster when only have added files
- to a single section.
-
-
- Bulkupload has a few options you can use on the command line:

- Use: TBulkUpload [-flags] [section] ["sysop"]
- Section: if a number is used, only that section is processed.
- Sysop: if a name is used, that name will be used for Uploader.
- Flags: -D .. Use original date on file instead of now.
- -Q .. Quiet operation.
- -I .. Get Description file from archive.
-
-
-
- If you start with a name (between "") at the command line
- that name is used in the Uploader field if files are
- added to the filecatalogue. Default the name of
- the Bulkupload programm will be used.
-
- If you start with a number on the command line it will
- switch to "single section" mode .. and use the number
- for the file section number.
-
- If the -I flag is used the program wil use the upload script
- to process files and check if there is a description file
- like FILE_ID.DIZ present in archives .. and use it for
- the description of the file.
-
- If the -D flag is used the date from the file is used as
- the Upload date.. if you don't use this flag the time
- at the moment of adding the file is used as upload time.
- This flag is usefull if you build a filebase for the first
- time or remake the filebase .. so not all the files while
- be shown during a new file scan.
-
- This programm is very Usefull if you have to start a complete
- new file catalogue. Or if you lost your old file catalogue.
-
- Note that Bulkupload validates all files it uploads, so you
- don't have to validate them all bij hand or by CheckFileBase
- Utility.
