Looking for Win based file cataloguing software.

[Mclaneinc]

.BAS files and anything on DOS disks tend to be well hidden content wise, I've found stuff to do individual disks but is there a program that will scan disks and catalogue those that have DOS file systems, I'm not expecting something to cover all DOS's and densities (but it would be nice) but even just DOS 2.5 would be great..

 

The looking for Chicken Out thread just proved how well hidden software can be in plain view

 

Any idea's folks?

AtrTools has an atr scanner built in creates a csv file of contents by name.

Every time I start a scan atr files it crashes after a swift search?

 

Once I work that out does it do batches or just files per disk?

 

Thank you..

Also FileLocator Lite by Mythicsoft has a search by phrase inside a given file type I use *.ATR as file type and the search phrase as the first 5 bytes of the koala pictures header. To find new pictures for a slide show program I use to view them.

 

With Atr Tools I have a huge collection of ATR files broken down into 8 folders. So I copy about 100 files at a time into an empty folder for AtrTools to scan..

If you have a csv viewer rename this txt file to csv. to view my Bellcom folder..

I just wonder why I'm getting a crash with Atrtools, gone back to 26f and its still doing it..

 

I'm just so lazy at one at a time stuff, give me 100 men to man mange on a project or get a shop selling like the wind and I'm good, give me Monday morning paper work and I HATED it

 

I can do a disk at a time in Altirra just to read the dir but it would be nice to list it all in to a mega list csv or otherwise just so I can see all the disks with files, its more useful if it looks for all files so I can catch .dat and files that abuse the 8.3 and use the extender as part of the name

 

Thanks for you kind help sir..

ATRCopy will do it.

Just write a shell script to loop through all the files and run 'atrcopy -l' on each one. It currently crashes on SpartaDOS file systems so make sure the shell script ignores the crash and continues on. There are a lot of atari files, more than a standard bash 'for f in "$file" do done' so I list all files to a text file and then perform an action on each line.

 

Part of the work I'm doing for my website involves extracting all the files from all the dos format disks and generating hashes for them so I can see where files are duplicated.
