)F Memberlist Compare (MLCMP) application

Current build: 008


General description+

MLCMP shows a side-by-side list of 2 library memer lists, which makes for
easy comparison. Members are marked for being in one library only, which one
is the newest etc.
The display can be searched and filtered, see the Primary Commands section.
You can do various actions directly from the display, refer to the Line
Command section.

The panel 'PROMPT' option will show a prompt panel if a command is deemed
destructive, like when copy will replace a member.
The panel 'REPLACE' option will bypass the prompt.


Parameters

 lib1 lib2 mbr
            blank seperated library names. If less that 2 names are
            specified then a prompt screen is presented.
            The libraries obviously must be of the same type (record
            format Fb, Vb, or U).
            'mbr' is one or more membernames or masks. See the PDSMAIN
            program for details. Default is all members.


Primary commands

 ALL        Show all records.
 COPY c     Copy members by note text to the alternate library.
            'c' must be one of the following:
             1O all members with note '1 only'.
             1N              -        '1 newest'.
             2O              -        '2 only'.
             2N              -        '2 newest'.
 DATadif    Show records where note is 'datadif'.
 DIF        Show records where note is not 'same'.
 f c v      Filter by 'f' field 'c' condition 'value'.
            'field' is one of the names heading the display.
            'condition' is one of the following: >, <, <> or =.
            > and < are meant to be used with data fields.
            'value' is either the full or partial value to test for, or
            a mask using '%' for one char and '*' for zero or many chars.
            Using a mask is only valid if the RXPATTRN function is
            installed.
            If field is 'name' then the alias names are searched too.
            Samples:  name=kil or date1=*-10-*
 L m        Locate member 'm', may be a prefix.
 RESet      Show all records, same as the ALL comand.
 REFRESH    reload member lists.
 SAME       Show records where note is 'same', short for note=same.
 SETDatadif Scan both libraries, mark lines where member data differ.
 1          Show records where note starts with '1',short for note=1.
 1N         Show records where note is '1 newest', short for note=1 n.
 1O         Show records where note is '1 only', short for note=1 o.
 2          Show records where note starts with '2', short for note=2.
