# Shellscript for xbin'ing new net.sources.mac posts to one directory for macput
# Gets files to xbin from comm'ing the file '.lastls' in the download
# directory and the new net.sources.mac directory.
#
# This shellscript will ignore directories and files that are unreadable,
# as well as any files without the line "(This file must be converted...)"
#
# Upon termination of the operation, the Macintosh bell will ring
# two times. This is your clue to wake up and see what is waiting.
# This might be deleted if you plan to do this in the background and
# don't want to be bothered.

# SOURCES: replace "/usr/spool/news/net/sources/mac" with the path to your
# net.sources.mac if it is different.
