Hello, mark!

Replying to a message of mark lewis to Sean Dennis:

 ml> it'll probably be faster than the loop but i dunno... it might also be
 ml> "del /q"  but i don't recall the raw OS/2 del command options any
 ml> more...

Just discovered I had this echo still but it wasn't set up in Squish, odd.

So this is what I finally did to solve this:

===
rem ** Process incoming Fidonet nodelists
if not exist d:\bt\in\nodelist.z* goto toss
cd\qnode
copy d:\bt\in\nodelist.z??
for %%f in (nodelist.0* nodelist.1* nodelist.2* nodelist.3*) do del /n %%f
unzip nodelist.z*
del /n nodelist.z*
qnode
===

This is part of Internet Rex's BETWEEN.CMD that is run when mail comes in.

Later,
Sean
