Short: Create statistics about UMS newsgroups Author: Olaf Peters Uploader: Olaf Peters Type: comm/ums Long: Revision history: ================= v1.17 (13.6.95) - fixed a nasty bug that has been lurking in REALBYTES since v1.09. UMSMailStat had problems with mails larger than 32767 bytes, now we're able to handle 2 GB messages (if you got the mem for it :-D ). Thanks to Luc Gibert for finding this bug! v1.16 (18.4.95) - french catalog included. Big THANK YOU to Luc Gibert! :-) - new options QUOTECHECK and QUOTECHARS and variables "UMSMailStat.Quote.Chars" and "UMSMailStat.Quote.CheckFirstNChars" for generation of statictics about the "quoting habits" of the authors (as requested by Luc Gibert). - changed the way the progressmeter is printed. (as requested by Ralf Garbade) - revised the documentation. v1.15 (28.3.95) - instead of printing 0% in the table UMSMailStat now prints the decimal-point and the first digit of the fraction-part: .5% instead of 0% (as requested by Luc Gibert) - CLI-Usage now completely conforming the login-guide. v1.14 (14.3.95) - the defaults for MaxUsers and MaxSubject are now read from the ums.config-variables UMSMailStat.MaxUsers and UMSMailStat.MaxSubjects. Only if these do not exist, UMSMailStat will fall back to its hardcoded values. v1.13 (25.2.95) - new CDATE-Option. Using this the messages will be selected by their creation-date instead of their import-date. This option is only available with an UMSServer v11.22+, with v10 this option has no effect. v1.12 (23.02.95) - bumped revision number: the last public release (v1.11) contained the 1.09 binary :-( (Thanks to Matthias Scheler for the hint) v1.11 (13.02.95) - if two or more authors/subjects have the same ranking (see v1.10) they will be printed in alphabetical order. - break-handling removed, could lead into bad crashes :-( - some layoutchanges to the documentation v1.10 (11.02.95) - if two or more authors/subjects have the same amount of messages *and* bytes they will now have the same ranking. - RB-shortcut for REALBYTES ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 20692 11698 43.4% 13-Jun-95 09:55:08 +UMSMailStat 20448 7173 64.9% 13-Jun-95 09:53:20 +UMSMailStat.guide 18984 6469 65.9% 13-Jun-95 09:53:42 +UMSMailStat.guide 1424 740 48.0% 20-Apr-95 22:56:56 +UMSMailStat.catalog 1354 726 46.3% 20-Apr-95 22:56:58 +UMSMailStat.catalog -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 62902 26806 57.3% 15-Jun-95 02:06:56 5 files
