Short: System update util, v2.6 Author: Msi Software Uploader: Roger Hågensen Type: util/sys Version: 2.6 Architecture: m68k-amigaos Distribution: Freely Distributable FreeWare For OS 2.0 and higher. Compare versions of new files with installed files, and install new ones if needed. Now you can easily update libraries/datatypes/devices etc. DVC will copy the new file to the correct location by it self, after asking you first if you want to Install, Update or Replace. Everything in DVC is integrated, by this I mean... No external programs or libraries needed (when used from CLI/Shell), and uses the standard requester GUI, so download now ;-) It has Pubscreen support so it can open on any screen, like DirWork or Dopus. And it can use the ASL Filerequester, AppIcon (Iconify) and AppMenu (Hide) all three can make use of multiselection, and can also do this while starting from WB (shift click icons). Filelists can also be used, and DVC support "Internet file update", of all files in a DVC (Type 2) filelist. This is currently a State-Of-The-Art Internet thing, and as far as I know DVC is the first program of this kind. And not only that, it makes the Amiga, the first computer ever to do this. Some Internet programs for the Amiga (and other computers), let you download the latest version of that software via the Internet. But this is the first time you can update ANY files on your machine, from a filelist, via your browser, and it's fully automatic. All you have to do is click on a Yes or No button :-) DVC is freeware, freely distributable, and costs YOU nothing ;-) PC/Mac/Unix/Atari etc will have BIG trouble trying to do what DVC does, and the reason is simple, DVC is created with and for the Amiga ;-) You will also get the version.revision on ANY file, so DVC can also be used as a simple Version tool. DVC also remember the size/position of the ASL requester as long as DVC is running, including the last used directory. DVC also have a email notify requester that is available, when a new version of a file is found. It will let you save a small file to Ram: that you later can email to a list maintainer. Or if you are connected to the net, you can mail it directly! v2.6 - (28.December.1997) LibGuide release (available in LibGuide archive) Improved extension/name handling a bit, (still not perfect) with filenames you can never be 100% sure what it is :-( Added dynamic version check buffer depending on filesize. Fiddled around trying to make that thing a tad smarter :-) Should be able to handle most common AmiCDFS.030 type extensions, like coolio.030.library or coolio.library.030 etc :-) DVC is now compiled with AmigaE v3.3a Changed the "new-version filehit" report, now a temporary log is created, it can be saved to disk or emailed directly to list maintainer at the end of a list check.
