It accepts upper or lower case arguments by the looks of it. The documentation for the command shows the options in upper case though :-

Usage:

jrf {-options} {filename {,...} }

Where options can be:

        -H1 Force to HASH1 file type
        -H2 Force to HASH2 file type
        -H3 Force to HASH3 file type
        -H4 Force to HASH4 file type
        -B  Keep original bucket/frame size
        -C  Change restore specification
        -D  Allow downsize of file
        -E  Resize empty files
        -I  Ignore empty files
        -Mn Override default Hash Method, set to method n
        -R  Reporting only (do not actually resize)
        -V  Verbose mode
        -V1 Very verbose mode
        -Sm,f Size to parameter, where m is modulo, f is frame size

I thought it had to be a lower case r as in jrf *-r* FILENAME

Try "jrf -R FILENAME"   .. The order seems to matter...

    Thank-you Simon.   I just checked my  file, and from just
    eye-balling it, I figure about 250 bytes per item, so I can lower
    my size by about 75%.

    I tried the "jrf FILENAME -R" but didn't get any report.  Using
    vers. 4.3.10 on xp-pro  I was in the folder where the file exists.

    Dave.

        Good Day to you all:

        I am about to set up a new account and have a couple of
        questions regarding file sizing.

        1/  Is there a dict item I can use to see the size of my
items in a file ? For example.... "LIST FILENAME size" which would show me the item ID and the size of the item.

    LIST FILENAME *A9999     will work.

        2/Once I have a look at the items sizes, I assume I can do
        the following to create a file with the approximate size.

For now, lets assume that there are 1000 bytes per item. Each bucket holds 4096 bytes, so approximately 5 items per
        bucket.

        67000 items/5 indicates 13200 buckets

        so.... CREATE-FILE FILENAME 3 13200  should do it.

        Am I correct ? or is 13200 too much?

    It sounds reasonable.   Fill it with data and then use jrf
    FILENAME   to resize it.

        Dave.
