What is FileFix?
----------------
FileFix is an automated response system which provides file networked nodes
the ability to "self-service" their configuration. Generally speaking, you
will use FileFix to link and unlink file echo areas for export to you.
How to use FileFix
------------------
Simply address the message "To" field to "FileFix" and then supply your
FileFix password on the subject line for authentication.
Each line of the message content should consist of a single command which
instructs FileFix to do something. Each command will be processed and a
result of that command will be included within a return Netmail response
message which is automatically generated by FileFix after your request.
FileFix Commands
----------------
%ALL [search] The ALL command will either subscribe or remove all
%-ALL [search] available areas. If the optional [search] parameter
is used, only bases that match the search text in the
echotag or file base name will be actioned upon.
The search text can be a single piece of text, or it
can contain complex boolean searches. See below for
more information on complex boolean searching.
%HELP Return this help message
%PWD <new password> Changes your AreaFix/FileFix password to new password
%LIST [search] List all available file areas from this uplink. If
the optional [search] is used Mystic will list areas
that match the search text either in the echotag or
File Base name.
The search text can be a single piece of text, or it
can contain complex boolean searches. See below for
more information on complex boolean searching.
%LINKED List all linked areas (areas being exported to you)
%UNLINKED List of all unlinked areas (areas not exported to you)
-ECHOTAG Remove (unlink) ECHOTAG from your list of export areas
+ECHOTAG Add (link) ECHOTAG to the list of export areas. The
plus symbol can also be omitted here, meaing that if a
line contains ONLY an echotag, it is assumed that the
request is to link the area.
The %LIST and %ALL commands have the optional ability to apply searching
elements to limit the results to targeting a subset of "all". This can be
done with a simple text search such as "%ALL Mystic BBS" but it can also
use boolean evaluation to perform complex searches by using AND, OR, NOT and
parenthesis (where &=AND, |=OR, and !=NOT). For example:
