SHARK ***** SHARK is ©1991/92 by Marc Jackisch Im Schaufsfeld 17 4018 Langenfeld WEST-GERMANY SHARK is freeware and comes without warranty. SHARK is a demon program, that checks every disk inserted in any drive, wether it is a disk from Fred Fish's freely redistibutable software library. (I.e. if the disk is named "AmigaLibDiskXXX" or "ffXXX", and it contains a file called "Contents" in the root directory.) If the disk is "a fish", its contents-file will be copied to a given directory on your hard-disk, and in the same step it will by renamed as "fcf.XXX". SHARK is started from the CLI(!) as follows: SHARK where is the name of the directory, where you want SHARK to put the contents files. This normally should be a directory on a hard-disk, but it is also possible to use a disk directory. SHARK can be thrown out of your system by a second run. Unfortunately, SHARK does not work for old disks (below 100 or so), as the contents-file was called README.DISTxx then. However, you can copy and rename the files manually. To use this contents files, I personally (SKsh-user) use constructios like: cd ~SharkBase/ echo * | xargs SKSHBIN:fgrep Hope you like it! Marc P.S.: As I use a customized CWEB-version, (I just was ready with it, as I read that someone else was faster distributing a CWEB-port for the Amiga) my source documents look quite different from the usual CWEAVE- outputs. So, I included SHARK.tex in the distribution.
