MKDLIST
                        Version 1.0 of 02-19-92

                     Copyright 1992 Samuel H. Smith

Purpose
-------

This program can be used to speed up searching of slow drives, such as
CD-ROMs. You can also use this to reduce network traffic if you list
network download directories and place the listing on a local drive.


Usage
-----

MKDLIST dir ... dir [>out]

You may specify one or more directories to scan.  Subdirectories are
automatically included, so
        D:\
will scan all directories of drive D:, while
        D:\DL
will scan D:\DL and all subdirectories under D:\DL.

Example
-------

ECHO C:\UPLOAD >C:\PROTO\DUPLIST.DAT
MKDLIST C:\DL1 D:\DL2 K:\ >>C:\PROTO\DUPLIST.DAT
MKDLIST L:\COMM L:\GIF L:\EDIT L:\GRAPH >>C:\PROTO\DUPLIST.DAT

This would produce a DUPLIST file that (1) refers directly to C:\UPLOAD
for recent uploads, and (2) lists the specific filenames of all
available files in other download areas.

You can run MKDLIST multiple times, appending the results to a single
output listing.

HS/Link betas dated 2-18-92 and later are able to process such a file list
with the -NO option.   For example:

        hslink -NOc:\proto\duplist.dat ...

Batch files
-----------

I recommend you create a batch or EVENT to automatically update this
listing file if it refers to directories that are being updated.

The MKDLIST program output consists of all available filenames, but with
drive and directory stripped off to save space.

Example batch file to update DUPELIST.DAT:

UPDLIST.BAT
-----------

REM... FIRST ENTER THE "UPLOAD" DIRECTORY NAMES INTO THE DUPELIST.  THIS WILL
REM... ALLOW HS/LINK TO SCAN THE LATEST FILES SINCE LAST TIME THIS BATCH WAS
REM... RUN.

echo V:\UPLOAD  >U:\PCB\GEN\DUPELIST.DAT
echo W:\ULW     >>U:\PCB\GEN\DUPELIST.DAT
echo V:\PRIVATE >>U:\PCB\GEN\DUPELIST.DAT

REM... NOW BUILD A LIST OF FILENAMES IN THE OTHER DOWNLOAD AREAS
