   VERSION 4 - MARCH 10 2022   
   -------------------------   
      
   WARNING: DBUTIL CHANGE commands should be used with caution and only by   
            experienced D'Bridge operators only. In every operation where an   
            Echomail area is changed or deleted, the Echomail database file   
            DBRIDGE.ADF is backed up as BACKUP.ADF incase you make a mistake.   
      
   Very minor, almost trivial stuff:   
      
   - Fix for a long-standing bug with "Unpack error" when only a Queue path   
     is defined and not drive+path.   
      
   - Adds a new DBUTIL CHANGE parameter missing for a long time... the   
     ability to mass-change Echomail *.MSG directory paths. This new one   
     is called FIDOMSG. For example:   
      
     C:\DB> DBUTIL CHANGE FIDOMSG C: FIDOMSG R:   
      
     Will change every Echomail *.MSG area from C:\DB\MESSAGES\XXX to   
     R:\DB\MESSAGES\XXX.   
      
     You can also specify a "null" in the change-to condition field, if you   
     wish to completely remove absolute drive references from your Echomail   
     area database, ie:   
      
     C:\DB> DBUTIL CHANGE FIDOMSG C: FIDOMSG   
      
     Will change every Echomail *.MSG area from C:\DB\MESSAGES\XXX to   
     just \DB\MESSAGES\XXXX.   
      
     And of course, it doesn't just have to be for drive-changing... it can   
     be for matching other stuff too:   
      
     C:\DB> DBUTIL CHANGE FIDOMSG F: ALERTFLAG F   
      
     Will change any Echomail *.MSG directory matching drive F to have   
     the alert flag F.   
      
     You could also delete areas on matching criteria...   
      
     C:\DB> DBUTIL DELETE FIDOMSG R:   
      
     Will nuke any Echomail *.MSG area matching drive R.   
      
   - The addition of this new CHANGE parameters should eliminate the often   
     convoluted job with text-editors when you need to make mass-changes to   
     a very large D'Bridge configuration (a config with thousands of areas)   
      
   - Very minor code improvements.
