   Daryl Stout to Paul Quinn   
   Batch Command Question

    PQ@> Hi! Daryl,   
      
   Hi, Paul...   
      
    PQ@> Try the "-o" PKUNZIP option on the command line, Daryl.  That's the   
    PQ@> 'overwrite' option that you need, I'm sure.   
      
     So would the command be something like:   
      
   IF EXIST *LIST.Z0? ECHO O|PKUNZIP *LIST.Z0? *LIST.0??   
      
   Note: I'd also have the .Z#? with 1 through 9, and the last ones also as   
   1, 2, or 3.   
      
     This way, the batchfile updates the nodelist directories automatically   
   when a new nodelist data file arrives.   
      
     I can write a batchfile, but my programming ends at setting the clock   
   on the microwave oven.
