DayMove is email-ware, which means that if you like it I would really like to receive a mail from 
you telling me so.
DayMove is just a small util that will let you move -x days old files from one directory to another.

USAGE:
DayMove <number of days> <source> <dest> [OLDER] [LIST] [QUIET] [TIME=<n>] [ALL]

NUMBER_OF_DAYS - How many days old files to move
SOURCE_DIR     - Source-dir
DEST_DIR       - Dest-dir
OLDER          - move only older than x-days old files, move newer is default.
LIST           - Do not move files, only list them.
QUIET          - Do not ask questions, this is smart to use in scripts where 
                 you don't want the program to wait for your response.
TIME           - Hours past midnight                 
ALL            - Check all subdirs.

examples:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

daymove 0 store:tmp/ BBS:upload/ ;This will move todays files from store:tmp/ to BBS:upload/

daymove 50 store3:tmp/ ram: OLDER LIST ;This will list files in store3:tmp/ that are 
                                        older than 50 days. It can be quite smart to
                                        use the LIST switch to display the affected files
                                        before you actually start moving them, and then
                                        afterwards start daymove without the LIST switch
                                        to actually move the files.
                                        Even if the dest-dir is not used in list-mode, a valid
                                        dest-dir has to be passed as an argument, because of the 
                                        argument parsing.


daymove 0 ram: ram:recent/ time=5  ;Move files that were created after 05:00 today

daymove 3 ram: ram:old/ time=9 older ;Move files that were created before 09:00, 3 days ago

This should be quite simple to figure out I guess, but if you are stuck feel free to 
send me a mail.

DayMove is part of a serie of smart little tools. You should also check out the
following utils released by me (in aminet/util/cli/):

DayCopy
DayDelete
DayList
SizeCopy
SizeDelete

Version History:

1.25 Fixed a bug in the routine that was checking if the file was copied correctly. 
     Thanks to Fredrik Ismyren for reporting this.

1.24 Will now skip files when the filedate is in the future.
     Fixed a bug when using the ALL argument

1.23 Fixed a bug in the exit-routine.

1.22 Added the 'ALL' argument.

1.21 Now uses raw-mode for input, so the input will not be put in the CON's history.
     Reported by Stefan Schulz

1.2  Fixed a memory-allocation-bug, that caused daymove to crash.
     TIME argument added, suggested by Fredrik Ismyren. 

1.11 Fixed a bug in the routine testing if the file was copied ok.
     The destination file was deleted, instead of the source file(!) 
     In other words v1.1 would not do anything usefull ;)

1.1  DayMove will now preserve creation-date/filecomment and protection when moving the file.
     But if you choose to un-protect the file from deletion, the destination will then be unprotected too.
     If anybody want to move a file, but still keep the file protected from deletion in the destination-drawer,
     please tell me so...
     Suggested by Fredrik Ismyren.

1.0  First public release
     Will check to see if the file is protected from deletion and let you decide if
     if you want to un-protect it.
     Will NOT delete the file if the copy was not successfull.
