    From Jay Harris@1:229/664 to All on Friday, December 19, 2025 15:46:48
    Hi All,

    With a great deal of help from ChatGPT I seem to have a working FileFind perl script for HPT. It's not been battle tested, if you'd like to take a look you can find it at:

    https://hub.nrbbs.net/hptscripts/

    The gist of it is to create an allfiles.txt file with htick, point filefind.pl at that, configure the areas you want to monitor and you're off to the races.

    You can use srifreq (also at https://hub.nrbbs.net/hptscripts/) with binkd if you'd like to make your files freq'able.

    TO DO: Have it also monitor/respond to netmail


    Comments are welcomed and appreciated.

    ... File not found. Should I fake it? (Y/N)

    Just tried, and yes, it does seem to respond to dupes... Hmm...

    ... Remind me never to put off until tomorrow the things I've already put off

    Yes, thats why I run my test robot in a point with only one link. The same thing with this one.

    I dont know if its possible to run perl script after dupecheck.
