└──────────┴───────────┘
0.93ß - A new command-line switch has been installed; the -L switch will
(10/23/92) create a text list file containing the names of the files that are
identified as BBS ads. This list file can be passed to an archiver
to delete the listed files from the archive without the
unpack/delete/repack sequence of events. Refer to the documentation
for more information.
Installed a cap on the maximize size of a file that will be checked
by ANTI-AD. You will find that this will increase the speed of
ANTI-AD's processing.
Removed the screen-clearing code from program startup. It screwed up
the display of ULP (and probably other upload processing utilities)
during processing.
0.92ß - Added the ability for the user to select the disposition of the BBS
(10/6/92) ad file depending upon the detection method. The two parameters are
CRC_DISP and KEYWORD_DISP, and the disposition options are DELETE
and STORE. Refer to the documentation for complete information.
A limit on the minimum number of keywords allowed to be defined has
been implemented; it is currently set to 5. This means that all
keyword sets must contain from 5 to 10 keywords. This was done to
help prevent false file removals due to inadequate keyword planning.
In order to reduce the length of the command line for ANTI-AD (to
help ease implementation into BBS upload utilities), ANTI-AD will
search the environment for a parameter called "ANTI-AD_CFG". This
environment variable can be set to the complete path and filename of
your ANTI-AD configuration file, eliminating the need for using the
-C command line parameter. Refer to the documentation.
ANTI-AD now uses a unique name for each BBS ad it stores. Before, it
used the original filename, potentially causing file overwriting.
Changed the -D command switch to -P. Made more sense...
0.91ß - An 'innocent' change prior to release turned out to be not so
(10/2/92) innocent. If no path was passed using the '-D' parameter, then
ANTI-AD would get lost. Fixed. (Bad programmer! Slap! Slap!)
Sorry 'bout that...
0.90ß - Initial public beta release.
(10/1/92)
