- FDSCheck 1.00

- ===============================================================================
-
- With the release of FrontDoor 2.x, some of the files used by that
- program had their names changed. Out of these files, several of them,
- notabaly FD.SYS (which has been renamed to SETUP.FD) and FOLDER.SYS
- (renamed to FOLDER.FD) are used by external utilities such as TosScan
- and GhostWriter. Until new versions of these external utilities are
- released, they still require the old (FrontDoor 1.99c) names to operate.
- This program will copy SETUP.FD to FD.SYS and FOLDER.FD to FOLDER.SYS
- every time changes are made to either your general configuration
- (SETUP.FD) or your areas configuration (FOLDER.FD). In doing so, you
- can keep the old FrontDoor files required by your external utilities
- up-to-date without having to do so manually. FDSCheck also eliminates
- the possibility of you forgetting to update these configuration files,
- which can cause some nasty little "surprises".
-
- FDSCheck must be in your main FrontDoor directory to run properly (or at
- least in the same directory as SETUP.FD, FD.SYS, FOLDER.FD and
- FOLDER.SYS). If any of these four files are missing, FDSCheck will halt
- and inform you of the problem. I suggest running FDSCheck every time
- you import or export mail (or at any other relatively short interval, as
- it is extremely quick to run). This will keep the old FrontDoor
- configuration files up-to-date for the external utilities that you use
- in your mail import or export routines.
-
- This program is guaranteed only to take up 8k or so of disk space. No
- other warranties, express or implied, are given. If you choose to run
- FDSCheck, you do so at your own risk. Running the program constitutes
- acceptance of these terms.
-
- If you decide to keep and use FDSCheck, and if you find it useful, a
- token donation of $2 or so would be appreciated. Even if you won't/can't
- send it, please send the author a NetMail [I like to know where my
- programs end up ;-) ] at 1:163/303.8@fidonet.org. If you have any
- questions/bugs/suggestions/comments, please send them to me at the same
- address. This program is shareware and is not to be distributed for
- profit or used in a commercial environment, period.
