Oops. Rereading the README file from cica.cica.indiana.edu I see that the date IS included with the INDEX file in the format YYMMDD. So I got the index and used the sort command to sort by that date. Works pretty good. Only problem is now I don't know what directory they are in. Well at least I learned something new. This stuff was uploaded in April. The sort command was sort -rn +1 -2 indy.index -o indy.latest All the comments and sub-directory information sort of floated to the top and I deleted it. warp12.zip 910430 Enterprise Spaceship (640x480x256) fish.zip 910430 640x480x16 Snapshot of Fish blank.zip 910430 1024x768x1 Black Bitmap (Why?!) disktool.zip 910429 Compliments FileManager (one click to move/delete/copy) winsaver.zip 910425 Restore Windows Session as You Left It rtf-desc.zip 910425 RichTextFormat Discussion cardfile.zip 910425 Discussion of Cardfile format bedrock.zip 910425 Bedrock Font wnb30a.zip 910424 Windows Batch Language Version 3.0a typemate.zip 910424 Set Typematic Speed qvtnet16.zip 910423 WinQVT for Ethernet Connections (4-11-91 version) gdips_96.zip 910423 96 DPI (VGA resolution) 1:1 Aspect Ratio Screen Fonts gdips120.zip 910423 120 DPI (8514 resolution) 1:1 Aspect Ratio Screen Fonts winvn.zip 910421 Windows-based Usenet News Reader (like VN) snagit16.zip 910421 SnagIt Ver 1.6 Screen Capture/Print Utility cp-70s.zip 910421 Command Post 7.0s and Browser 3.8 for Windows cura21.zip 910420 Simu of Sterile Insect Release Method of Pest Control wined10g.zip 910418 WinEdit 1.0G: Programmer's Editor for Windows tft.zip 910418 Text File Searcher frequently.ask 910418 Freq Asked Questions About Win3 (from comp.windows.ms) refont.zip 910417 PS Type 1 Font Utility Converts Macintosh->ATM Fonts moont104.zip 910417 Moon Tool (Phases of the Moon) wyse700.zip 910416 Wy-700 Video Drivers westsd.zip 910416 Type 1 Font like the New Yorker Magazine tribeca.zip 910416 Type 1 Font tiempo.zip 910416 Type 1 Font show.zip 910416 Type 1 Font neko.zip 910416 Neko the Cat Chases Your Mouse Around garrett.zip 910416 Yet Another Font macaw.zip 910415 Multiple Alignment Construction & Analysis Workbench wintide.zip 910412 Linear Tide Clock wcpumtrx.zip 910412 Yet Another CPU Meter uc-20ca.zip 910412 UniCom: Windows Communications Package Util tmwinpif.zip 910412 How to Run TeleMate under Windows sysgraph.zip 910412 System Load Average as a Graphic stub.zip 910412 Start Windows and an App by typing application name startup2.zip 910412 How to Modify Win3 Opening Banner (Version 2) ss14.zip 910412 Yet Another Screen Saver (version 1.4) setc1234.zip 910412 Stores port addr you specify in the BIOS for COM1-COM4 rp105.zip 910412 Run programs maximized, minimized, normal, etc. rocks.zip 910412 Demos of MicroApps Manager and the Rocks MicroApp pundit.zip 910412 PopUp Useless Sayings packrat.zip 910412 Polaris Software's PackRat Demo (hypercard-like) osf112.zip 910412 OSF Demo for Windows org130.zip 910412 Windows 3 Personal Information Manager Util nu5win.zip 910412 Notes Using Norton Utilities Ver 5 with Windows nologo.zip 910412 Use Debug to Remove Opening Banner (see nobanner.txt) msdrv191.zip 910412 Updated HIMEM.SYS, RAMDRIVE.SYS, SMARTDRV.SYS from MS lava.zip 910412 Lava Lamp for Windows kfree34.zip 910412 Kfree - free memory & disk space monitor Util kc_res.zip 910412 Color Registration Codes for Windows hunder19.zip 910412 File Hunter for Windows highmem.zip 910412 Notes on High Memory Usage with Windows hifinance.zip 910412 High Finance Personal Financial Management System flasher.zip 910412 Strobe Lights for Windows doorway.zip 910412 A DOS Command Line Doorway from Windows combus10.zip 910412 Windows Cardfile of Computer-related Businesses codepad.zip 910412 Windows Programmer's Editor (80386 only/Crippleware) cbdemo.zip 910412 SQL Windows ComboBox DLL demo cal1991.zip 910412 Calendar Bitmaps for 1991 boxplot.zip 910412 Create Box Plots for Loudspeakers rlibdemo.zip 910411 RenderLib: 3D Graphics Dynamic Link Library for Win3 ltmd.zip 910411 LogiTech Mouse Routines for Windows fm10.zip 910411 Use FM Synthesis Abilities of Your Sound Card sntool.zip 910410 SoundTool to Play Sounds yoda.zip 910409 BMP of Yoda wintree.zip 910409 Genealogy Program Called PARENTS winnav.zip 910409 Windows Navigator wbar15.zip 910409 Windows Bar Code Generator warmap.zip 910409 Bitmap of Middle East Map symbol.zip 910409 Help with Symbol Set/WfW sabdu110.zip 910409 Format, Copy, Compare Floppy Disks qemmwin.zip 910409 Quarterdeck Tech Talk on QEMM+Windows qemm511f.zip 910409 Bug Fix for QEMM 5.11f High Mem Driver ppd11.zip 910409 PowerPad Windows Text Editor mredit.zip 910409 Mr. Edit: Yet Another Windows Editor elana.zip 910409 Change Windows Params the Control Panel Can't easel41e.zip 910409 Easel Drawing Program dmdrvr.zip 910409 Windows/DMDRVR Discussion from Compu$erve digitl.zip 910409 Yet Another Digital Clock desk1.zip 910409 Desktop Animation clrbut.zip 910409 Colorize Your Buttons!

That was the only serious flaw to the ugly hack I posted to get the recent file listings from the INDEX.

I suppose it now appropriate to discuss the format of the INDEX files. I *could* add the subdirectory name on each line since the individual INDEX files are created by hand anyway: >fish.zip 910430 bmp 640x480x16 Snapshot of Fish However, since we've only got 79 columns, putting any more info onto that line effectively reduces the space I have to put in a description. Especially if subdirectories become 2+ levels deep. It's also redundant information when there's an individual index file for each file are. (Symbols or abbreviations for subdirectory names may be too obscure.) -- michael regoli regoli@bronze.ucs.indiana.edu regoli@iubacs.BITNET

Well, since everyone is posting their ideas on how to slice and dice the INDEX
file, I'll take a hack at it also. Here it is, csh+awk which probably could be
done with perl a lot easier etc. but I'm not good enough on it yet...
Takes optionally one argument, which is a flag like '-50' to indicate how many
files to get into the listing. It assumes INDEX from cica is in the current
directory (if it isn't, it'll get it there from cica). Generates a file like
INDEX-20, which contains the last 20 indexed uploads to cica starting from
the latest.
The output is a bit ragged, since it doesn't retab the output (which could be
bit of a chore in a 1-hour hack), and it recognizes file names from the input
file simply by looking for a letter or number as the 1st character on the line.

Not too long ago, I decided to D/L 'Sounder.zip' since I had had problems with it in the past. I also decided it would be nice to get some test sounds. So, using the INDEX I had D/Led earlier and the handy-dandy script posted awhile back (I call it 'getcica dir filelist'), I requested 'sounder.zip' and 'sounds1.zip'. Next thing I know, an 800K file is being FTPed. I should probably go to each dir and check sizes, but I thought this whole discussion was about how to make life easier. Anyway, I think its great that you provide this service and these routines. Just my 2 cents worth. -- ******************************************************************************* * Dennis Ellis (dre@sequoia.cray.com) * * * Cray Research, Inc. * * * Eagan, MN 55121 * All the normal stuff about opinions.. *

I hacked together a small AWK script to list out any new entries from the Cica
list. I did this without noticing Otto's post, but I post this one since it
takes a slightly different aproach and doesen't require a Unix csh. The output
isn't to well formattet, but take this as a 15 min hack to be worked on if you
have the time :-)
You use it in this way:
AWK -f newcica.awk date=910501 cica.lst
This will read the script (assumed to be stored as newcica.awk) and output
all programs with dates on or later than 1st of May. The list is assumed to
be in the file cica.lst.
This is the script:
# AWK script to display recent changes in the cica index file
# Usage: awk -f newcica.awk date=yymmdd index
{
if ($0 ~ /^\*\*/)
print $0
else if ($2 >= date)
print $0
}
Short enough???

At the risk of advertising my own program, in utils on cica is a program in match103.zip which will compare two text files and display the differences under Windows. If you simply download to your PC the updated INDEX to a directory different than the previous one, you can use it to visually see what's changed on cica. Of course, changes to the INDEX file format don't produce a very informative result ... -- Barry Press Internet: press@venice.sedd.trw.com
