Hi Jim & Mark,

if I try to write my own script for checking the consistency of a
repository, which things I should take into account? I mean, would it be
enough to read the content of each dir recursively and then check whether
all files got really included in the fileattr file like

---snip---
FThe1stFileName _watched=
FThe2ndFileName _watched=
...
---snip---

and check that every subdir-containing directory has the entry

---snip---
D       _watched=
---snip---

or are there still other quircks which have to be taken care of.

Of course this assumes that the repository is currently not in use,
meaning that there are no edited files.

Well, one could think about what you once mentioned that there might be
entries like this

---snip---
Fwbl804.FIS     _watched=;_editors=kaening_flmpc25>Tue May 18 14:14:01
2004 GMT+flmpc25+P:\MIRROR;_watchers=kaening_flmpc25>tedit+tunedit+tcommit
---snip---

So one might detect also editors and watchers optionally... Or even throw
them out as someone liked to do...

Question: Do you know anything else which might cross my way? No quircks?


Regards,
Marko
