MigrateWWW

Version 1.1 dated 20.07.2001

-----------------------------------------------------------

MigrateWWW is intended to create an alternative file structure of
a Web site, containing redirection files that redirect users to
the new location of that file. That way you can easily move a
whole Web site to a new server and prevent users from getting a
"404 - document not found" message.

MigrateWWW will run under DOS, Windows95, Windows98, Windows
NT and Windows2000, as well as on all machines supporting DOS.

On non-DOS systems

MigrateWWW will create a new file in <dest dir> for each html /
htm / shtml / shtm file found in <source dir>, containing the
modified template file, so users will be redirected to the new
WWW destination.

MigrateWWW comes with a template file (template.htm). The string
%URL% is replaced by the new URL of the file. 



------------------------

Changes:

1.1

- Has a nice Win32 GUI now

- It's freeware now, nobody wanted to pay for it anyway...
- Little bug in display when checking back whether to overwrite files fixed
- /p option to wait for keypress



------------------------

MigrateWWW is Freeware

Use it as you like it.

http://www.your-domain.com/

/y Overwrite files without user interaction
/u Update mode - create files only if they don't exist
/c Copy mode - copy all non-html files to the destination
