I just received the disk for Transactor V1I6. On it was the executables for DNet. These executables have been stored on the disk using Matt's backup program. Whilst this is a new and novel way of using backup, and YAFCALP (Yet Another File Compression And Library Program :-), I'd have preferred to have seen zoo used but that just personal choice), my only request is that Transactor use some other extension for these files other than ".bak". I tought this extension had been understood as being for backup files for editors, etc. Part of the problem is that here we use DCron (What would we do without Matt :-), thanks Matt) to clear out old editor backups. With this extension for this it's going to delete it as well. So, could someone at or close to Transactor pass on that they use a different extension for this type of backup files. Does anyone know if and what Transactor's Email address is ? Sorry this is posted to comp.sys.amiga.tech rather than comp.sys.amiga but Australia isn't getting c.s.a. at the moment.
