Hello.
fileutils is a set of file management programs like cp, mv, rm, mkdir. Release
3 of the port of fileutils 4.1 to DJGPP is now available.
This release fixes a bug in 'ls'. Previously ls would show hidden files when
it had not been told to. Now ls will only show hidden files, if it has been
invoked with the '-a' command-line option. Thanks to David Monksfield for
reporting the bug. There were also a couple of minor DJGPP-specific
documentation updates - please see changelog.dos for details.
To use the Fileutils programs, you only need to download the binary
distribution. You may also want to download the documentation distribution, to
get the documentation in HTML, PostScript and DVI formats. If you want to
examine or rebuild the Fileutils sources, you need to download the source
distribution.
The Fileutils port is available here:
http://www.simtel.net/gnudlpage.php?product=/gnu/djgpp/v2gnu/fil41b.zip&name=fil41b.zip

Please read the file gnu/filutil4.1/djgpp/readme.dos in whichever distribution
you download. This contains important instructions on installing and using
Fileutils.
You can also read the readme and changelog files online:

If you encounter any problems with this port, please feel free to contact me
by e-mail (address below). I also try to read the DJGPP newsgroup,
comp.os.msdos.djgpp, on a regular basis.
