- About Resize FSecs 2.5…
-
- This is a utility to adjust reported sizes of files in your
- FileSections. I wrote it originally so that my FileSections would
- accurately report sizes of files which I Stuffed or Packed after they
- were initially uploaded, and for those occasions when someone sends me
- an updated application without documentation and I add the documentation
- to the Stuffit archive. Since Host computes allowable download times
- from the sizes stated in your FileSections, it’s nice to keep them
- accurate.
-
- This version works with both Host 1.4 *and* Host 2.x FileSection
- formats.
-
- In addition to size adjustments, Resize FSecs can optionally globally
- change the name of an uploader -- I used this feature once upon a time
- to change all the “System Operator” uploads to my name -- and the basic
- access level for your files.
-
- To use it, just fire it up and have it read a FileSection on your BBS
- disk. It will follow the listed path to compute the size of the actual
- file, and will rewrite the listing if necessary. If you’ve elected to
- change an uploader name, it will do so for every match of the old name
- you’ve entered. If you’ve enabled the “Adjust Download Clearance…”
- option, it will change all file listings in the FileSection to the level
- you’ve set.
-
- This application is for the use of registered Archie users only and is
- not to be distributed on bulletin boards other than Glassell Park.
-
- Version 2.5 fixes a problem that the previous version had changing the
- uploader name in a FileSection.
