FAQ, by Marc SCHAEFER,
Archiving newsgroups can be automatically done with the following steps:
a) Edit S:CronTab and add the following lines. This will launch a script at 00:30 each day.
30 00 * * * UUArchive-Newsgroups
b) Edit UULIB:Sys and add
# dummy node(s) for archiving news, will never be batched since not in L.Sys uuarchive:alt.sys.amiga.alphanet,alphanet.*
c) Create S:UUArchive-Newsgroups. Note you need an TRASH: assign to some temporary directory. We use LHA as an archiver. We could also first join the article and then LHA them (it would be more efficient).
--- cut here --- Echo "UUArchive-Newsgroups(4)" ; What follows to prevent forgetting articles. ; Convert "." format to "/" format (1.16D) ; Does not prevent from being launched twice, however. CD UUNEWS: ; ALPHANET newsgroups IF EXISTS UUSPOOL:BATCH/UUArchive Delete TRASH:#?UUArchive Rename UUSPOOL:BATCH/UUArchive TRASH:_UUArchive ; Needed for batchnews multitasking. ConvertNewsgroup TRASH:_UUArchive TRASH:UUArchive LhA -iTRASH:UUArchive a ARCHIVES:Newsgroups/ALPHANET_NEWSGROUPS EndIF --- cut here ---
d) Create S:ConvertNewsgroup which converts "." syntax to "/" syntax as used in UUCP V1.16d and above. Note we use SED (Stream Editor). It can be found on fish disks. Probably the use of the Amiga stream editor "edit" would be possible.
--- cut here ---
.key source,dest
.bra {
.ket }
Sed < {source} > {dest} -fS:Sed-Newsgroup-Script
--- cut here
e) Create S:Sed-Newsgroup-Script, which is the SED macro itself
--- cut here --- y%.%/% --- cut here ---
