Welcome to DLDiz v1.5 ©Copyright 1995 by Rasmus K. Ursem, Dreamline Designs. Release Date: 15 Mar 95 Introduction: DLDiz is a small utility to extract and show "file_id.diz" from Textfiles, LHA and DMS-archives. It can also create filelists from the file_id.diz. Disclaimer: I take no responsibility for any lack of data or currupted archives. DLDiz is checked in everyday use and has shown no errors. Needed programs: LHA placed in the path. Reason to code: I used Whadiz 1.2 from nocTurne deSign/RefLeX, but this utility has a major bug. It dosn't unlock files when there isn't any "file_Id.diz" file in the archive. On top of that it dosn't unlock dirs. Very annoying because you cannot delete these files and dirs. Sometimes a list of the file_id.diz's is also very useful, so DLDiz can now create such a list. Usage: DLDiz NAME/K,F=FILELIST/S,Q=QUIET/S. NAME is the name of the archive. FILELIST is used to enable the create filelist. A file called "Filelist_created_by_DLDiz" is placed in ram: QUIET will disable all output but errormessages from DLDiz. History V1.0 -First working version. V1.1 -Improved: DMS extraction replaced with own search routines. -Added: Search in textfiles. (Or any other file where the file_id.diz is between a begin and end file_id.diz line. -Added: Buffermode so you can get the file_id.diz even if you havn't enough memory free to load the whole file. V1.2 -Bugfix: V1.1 had a minor bug. (Colorflash when no file_id.diz was found.) A friend of mine uploaded v1.1 without asking me. :-( V1.3 -Bugfix: Major fuckup in the DMS-searching. V1.4 -Added: Option to create filelist. -Added: Quietmode. V1.5 -Bugfix: DLDiz didn't delete the t:File_ID.Diz when a corrupted archive was processed. -Added: If a lha fails (corrupted data) DLDiz print a message on the screen or in the filelist.
