COPY FINDER
Files are often duplicated for one reason or another. Sometimes
this duplication is intentional, as in backing-up one disk onto
another. Occasionally however, files will be temporarily duplicated
with each copy requiring as much disk space as the original. While
this is not ordinarily a problem, it can become one if the system
is tight on disk space and these temporary replications are allowed
to accumulate excessively.
is useful for locating file replications by generating a directory
file sorted by hash values and then listing files with identical hash
values. A sample directory command is located in REPLCT.CMD and an
explantion precedes REPLCT.BAS. Although the sorting and list generation
is done in BASIC, its execution speed is blinding when compared to the
amount of time required for AMOS to compute the hash values.
To use the software;
1. using VUE, edit REPLCT.CMD to generate the desired
directory file.
2. at AMOS command level, type REPLCT
3. print REPLCT.LST
