• CNet/5 TIC Processor

    From Spitfire@80:774/1 to All on Thu Jun 4 17:34:16 2026
    It is almost ready. A TIC processor for C-Net/5 is now in testing. This is what it does so far. Let me know if I missed anything.

    Starts from C-Net/5, Shell, or a maintenance script.
    Writes startup information to the log file.
    Builds a list of incoming TIC files.
    Reads each TIC file one at a time.
    Searches each TIC file for:
    FILE
    AREA <area_name>
    Matches the TIC AREA to a configured C-Net/5 destination.
    Locates the actual file named in the TIC.
    Copies or moves normal file echo files into configured UDBase0: file areas. Detects configured nodelist TIC areas.
    Copies or moves received nodelists into CNet:Nodelist/
    Runs C-Net/5 TrapList when a new nodelist has been processed.
    Logs each step of the process.
    Moves processed TIC files to the configured processed/trash directory.
    Cleans up temporary list files when enabled.
    Exits cleanly when no more TIC files remain.

    For those of us (Me included) who have forgotten or never knew.

    What is a TIC file, what does it do?
