request V0.1.4
(C) 1994 by Thomas Zwettler

This is my first release of a filelist browser and request builder
for ifcico. 

It handels filelists downloaded from a BBS shows its contents in
a nice way :-) and gives you the possibility to scroll through the list 
and select files which are written to a request file in your outbound 
directory. It is also possible to enter magic names like FILES etc. or
search for specific patterns in the filelist (the file KEYS in this
directory shows you the keys to use). 
A config file in the same directory is used to get the outbound path
where the program will write the request file.

The name of the filelist should be in a form like "03100039something", 
because the program uses the name to determine the outgoing filename.
The first four digits are representing the net-number - in our case 0310 -
the rest stands for the node-number - 0039. This will generate a filname
like 01360027.req in the outbound directory which can be used by ifcico
(Binkley?) for a request at 2:310/39. 
If you don't want to name your files the way described above you can use 
the option "-n XXXXXXXX". In that case the program generates the name from 
that string given in XXXXXXXX and ignores the filename. The format of the
string should be the same as the first eight digits of the filename
(03100039).

Using the option "-o output-path" you can overwrite the path in the config
file and use this path instead.

 
If you find this program useful or if you find a bug please send me a
mail and let me know what's wrong or what could be done better.


CHANGES since 0.1.3:
Nothing great, just some bugs fixed and some other maybe added :-)
