subject: Re: addfiles error

OK so I pulled down addfiles.js (the hard way) and now the issue I am having is
that the filenames in the filelist are all in CAPS.  With it being created in
the days of DOS BBSing, they would be, but the actual file names on the CD are
all in lowercase so addfiles.js cannot find them.

Do you know of a workaround for that?  I am assuming it is to just skip using
the filelist and instead use '-diz' and hope they all contain descriptions.

Also, when I say "the hard way," I mean that using wget to try to pull the
addfiles.js down (from the same path the gitlab webpage claims it resides at)
results in an html (or some other such) file being pulled down instead of
addfiles.js.

wget https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/blob/master/exec/addfiles.js

For future reference, when pulling a single file down from gitlab, what is the
correct path to use?  Thanks.
