  • Allfiles generator

    From Sean Dennis@1:18/200 to All on Tuesday, September 24, 2019 22:19:00
    Hi everyone,

    What are you using for an allfiles generator? I was using AMU but it's croaking for some reason (probably because I have Max installed on a 128GB JFS partition in ArcaOS). I'm trying to find other programs to try...

    Thanks,
    Sean

    Checked my backup, I was using Allfix to generate the lists. Not sure
    if that will help or not.

    I was thinking about using Allfix for files and echomail but I've not looked into doing so. That sounds like a lot of time and effort but it would be nice to have filefind.

    Just for setting it up for allfiels lists isn't that much as I recall,
    but again we are going back umpteen years. ;)

    I'll talk to Andrew about setting up Allfix. I like using NEF for files though
    since it was written specifically for Maximus/Squish and works well for me. We'll see.

    Same here, I'm using NEF (FileFix) and SQAFix(AreaFix) on Ecomstation 2.2
    My Filelister is FLM from Alberto Pasquale. It's quite old, but it works on modern platforms. All other Filelisters, possibly written with pascal failed on
    my hardware. Before I used MAXLIST3.xx for years, but this pascal-program traps
    on modern ghz-cpu's.

    If you want, I send you my setup and all necessary dll's.

    currently i'm working on a 'high speed filelister' using max3.idx. It works great, but got hardcoded language defintions. I've got to expand it from german
    to other languages. I don't think, you would like to have german at your filelist. ;-)
