+(May 2000) don't edit non-regular files.

+Version 1.10
|

+~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
+(Jan 2000) added journaling and the inital mirroring of files:

|
+Journaling
|
|
+~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
+
|
|
+if a subdirectory named .journal exists in the directory of a
|
|
+previously existing edited file, the edited file is copied into the
|
|
+.journal subdirectory before the new version is written out. The
|
|
+filename of the file in the journal subdirectory is appended with a
|
|
+-@# where # is the system time in seconds since January 1, 1970.
|
|
+
|
|
+This feature creates an automatic invisible backup chain of all files
|
|
+edited within a selected directory.
|
|
+
|
|
+state of selected files, before any editing.
|
|
+
|
|
+selective initial mirroring
|
|
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
|
+
|
|
+if a subdirectory named .original exists in the directory of a
|
|
+previously existing edited file, and a copy of the editied file
|
|
+does not exist there, then the edited file is copied into the .original
|
|
+subdirectory before the new version is written out.
|
|
+This feature provides automatic invisible backups of the original
|
|
+state of selected files, before any editing. Useful for keeping
|
|
+track of the original contents of distributed configuration files.
|
|
+Files in the .original subdirectory with non-zero size indicate that
|
|
+the corresponding file has been modified.
|
|
+
|
|
+If the environment variable MG_DOT_ORIG is set, then the edited
|
|
+file is copied to a .orig file, if the .orig file does not exist.
|
|
+Helpful for creating diffs.

|
+Modified by John P. Refling, Dec 1999. This is version 1.00 of the
|
|

|
|
+mg.rc startup file name and search paths.
