Mario Fetka f214e89d69 tests: add Novell DOS tool baseline suite
Add DOS-side baseline scripts for the Novell tools used to compare the
reimplemented public utilities.

The suite covers the current baseline set:

  MAP
  SLIST
  WHOAMI
  LOGIN / LOGOUT
  NDIR
  NCOPY
  FLAG
  FLAGDIR
  CREATOR
  RIGHTS
  GRANT
  REVOKE
  REMOVE

It also includes supporting trustee, rights, rename, move, delete and
file-operation tests.

Each test writes reproducible output into a per-tool CMP directory and
provides a matching ZIP helper for collecting the results. The ZIP
helpers clean generated test trees afterwards so SYS: does not keep
accumulating temporary directories.

This is the Novell baseline layer only. A later change can extend the
same scripts to run the full comparison cycle:

  NPUBLIC baseline -> PUBLIC implementation -> NPUBLIC control

File Purpose
NCPTSTA.BAT Automated no-pause/no-screenshot NCOPY test. Writes results to F:\NCMP.
README_AUTO.md Details for the automated test.
NCPTSTN.BAT Manual/pause-based NCOPY baseline test.
NCPCMPN.BAT Manual repeat selected comparisons/output.
NCPTSTM.TST MARS/dosutils regression notes/spec.

Use:

NCPTSTA.BAT

Then collect:

F:\NCMP\NCPTSTA.ZIP

or, if ZIP is not installed yet:

F:\NCMP\RUN.LOG
F:\NCMP\SUMMARY.TXT
F:\NCMP\PRE\*.OUT
F:\NCMP\POST\*.OUT
F:\NCMP\CMP\*.OUT

NCOPY automated BAT test

Run:

NCPTSTA

The test writes all useful output to:

F:\NCMP

Upload either the directory contents or run:

NCPTZIP

and upload:

F:\NCMP\NCPTSTA.ZIP

This version avoids wildcard deletes, interactive overwrite prompts, PAUSE, and automatic ZIP.
