Add GPL-2-or-later license headers to the DOS utility source files and
document the purpose and local dependencies of each C, header and assembler
file.
Preserve the original Martin Stover copyright attribution for the historic
MARS-NWE utility sources, including files that did not previously carry an
explicit header but are part of the original tool set. Add Mario Fetka as the
2026 copyright holder for the current maintenance work, and use Mario-only
headers for files without original Martin Stover ownership.
Also add a root-level COPYING file containing the GPL-2 license text.
Add maintainer-only support used by the automated DOS compatibility
tests.
This introduces the MAINTAINER_BUILD option for the DOS tools. In
maintainer builds, LOGIN accepts the hidden /PWD: and /PASSWORD:
arguments for automated test relogin, and the DLYSTRT helper is built to
delay-start DOS batch files after the invoking batch has returned to the
prompt.
Add the WHOAMI utility and wire it into the NET command dispatch. Also
adjust SLIST and RIGHTS output to match Novell behavior more closely,
including server-not-found handling, path formatting, Supervisor rights,
missing-path errors and usage text.
Extend the test scripts to compare NPUBLIC Novell baselines against the
PUBLIC implementations. LOGIN/LOGOUT can now run automatically via
DLYSTRT and the maintainer LOGIN password option. RIGHTS gains an
additional NOPASSUSER effective-rights matrix that covers single rights,
mixed rights, Supervisor rights, ALL/N and file trustee cases.
Normal builds remain free of maintainer-only helpers and hidden password
handling.
Move common DOS utility helper code into tools.c and expose it through
net.h. This removes duplicated command-local helpers from GRANT,
RIGHTS, FLAG, FLAGDIR and the trustee helper layer.
The shared helpers cover case-insensitive argument comparison, help and
option detection, /FILES and /SUBDIRS parsing, current network directory
handle lookup, current volume prefix formatting, uppercase DOS path
copying, basename/header-path handling, wildcard detection and simple
path joining/splitting.
Keep the command frontends smaller and less coupled so the current
multicall utility can later be split into smaller grouped multicall
binaries, such as trustee tools, login/session tools and file/flag
tools.
Update the DOS utilities README for the newer Client32 and trustee
commands. Document RIGHTS, GRANT, REVOKE and REMOVE in the status,
feature, command and install sections. Add command reference entries
for the trustee tools, including Novell-style syntax, supported rights,
recursive/file options and missing-trustee behavior.
Also mention the shared trustee helper layer and common tools.c helpers
used by the newer command frontends.
- add a shared DOS pager helper for long tool output
- page FLAG wildcard output with the Novell continue prompt
- fix FLAGDIR current-directory handling for "." and volume root
- add FLAGDIR wildcard directory listing support
- page FLAGDIR wildcard output like Novell FLAGDIR
- keep FLAGDIR display formatting aligned with Novell output
- make SLIST /CONTINUE enable continuous output
- keep SLIST bindery scanning compatible with ncpfs behavior
- preserve SLIST NET_ADDRESS display and default server marking
