OVERVIEW
--------

MirrorManager is a management system for downloads from your Aminet site.
Here is a short overview of what MirrorManager can do for you:

+ Scan the files in your incoming directory and add filenotes according
  to the `Short' information given in the Aminet INDEX file

+ Create the Aminet directory hierarchy on your system (your local Aminet
  mirror) from the Aminet TREE file

+ Move the files in your incoming directory to your local Aminet mirror
  directory tree

+ Create a LOCAL index file from the files available in your Aminet mirror
  directory tree

+ Compare your LOCAL index file with the actual Aminet INDEX file in order
  to find changes and new revisions


INSTALLATION
------------

You are strongly urged to use the supplied installer script to install
MirrorManager!

(1) The supplied installer script will create a `MirrorManager' directory
    and copy the desired files coming with this package into it.

(2) If you installed the GUI application then you also have to tell
    MirrorManager about a number of path and filenames.
    Click the Configure icon in the MirrorManager/rexx/ drawer to do this.

NO OTHER MODIFICATIONS TO YOUR SYSTEM WILL BE MADE !


NOTES
-----

+ THIS IS A BETA VERSION !!!
  Read the History and Distfiles for more information!

+ The docs are not yet updated, they are still as of version 1.5
  We know that!  Please do not report it!

+ I've included my default configuration script in rexx/MirrorManager.rexx.
  This script contains absolute pathnames for my personal installation only!
  Please edit this script and change these values if needed before you use it
  or use rexx/Configure to setup MirrorManager for your system.

+ Example data files which can be used with some scripts like CleanupIncoming
  and ExamineIndex can be found in the `xtras' drawer.

+ Here is how to read the archive filename:

  (MirrorManager-)V.RXN.lha
                  | |||
                  | ||+--- release #N
                  | |+---- X = (b)eta, (i)nternal, (r)egistered
                  | +----- revision #R
                  +------- version #V

REQUIREMENTS
------------

(1) You need MUI if you want to have a GUI (:
(2) You should have the actual Aminet INDEX and TREE file
