> Very minor, almost trivial stuff:
 
> - Fix for a long-standing bug with "Unpack error" when only a Queue path
> is defined and not drive+path.
 
> - Adds a new DBUTIL CHANGE parameter missing for a long time... the
> ability to mass-change Echomail *.MSG directory paths. This new one
> is called FIDOMSG. For example:
 
> C:\DB> DBUTIL CHANGE FIDOMSG C: FIDOMSG R:
 
> Will change every Echomail *.MSG area from C:\DB\MESSAGES\XXX to
> R:\DB\MESSAGES\XXX.
 
> You can also specify a "null" in the change-to condition field, if you
> wish to completely remove absolute drive references from your Echomail
> area database, ie:
 
> C:\DB> DBUTIL CHANGE FIDOMSG C: FIDOMSG
 
> Will change every Echomail *.MSG area from C:\DB\MESSAGES\XXX to
> just \DB\MESSAGES\XXXX.
 
> And of course, it doesn't just have to be for drive-changing... it can
> be for matching other stuff too:
 
> C:\DB> DBUTIL CHANGE FIDOMSG F: ALERTFLAG F
 
> Will change any Echomail *.MSG directory matching drive F to have
> the alert flag F.
 
> You could also delete areas on matching criteria...
 
> C:\DB> DBUTIL DELETE FIDOMSG R:
 
> Will nuke any Echomail *.MSG area matching drive R.
 
> - The addition of this new CHANGE parameters should eliminate the often
> convoluted job with text-editors when you need to make mass-changes to
> a very large D'Bridge configuration (a config with thousands of areas)
 
> - Very minor code improvements.
