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

# NCOPY tests
Novell-only NCOPY tests.
## Files
| 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. |
## Recommended now
Use:
```text
NCPTSTA.BAT
```
Then collect:
```text
F:\NCMP\NCPTSTA.ZIP
```
or, if ZIP is not installed yet:
```text
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:
```text
NCPTSTA
```
The test writes all useful output to:
```text
F:\NCMP
```
Upload either the directory contents or run:
```text
NCPTZIP
```
and upload:
```text
F:\NCMP\NCPTSTA.ZIP
```
This version avoids wildcard deletes, interactive overwrite prompts, PAUSE, and automatic ZIP.
