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

RGHTSTA - RIGHTS baseline test

Novell-only baseline for RIGHTS behavior.

Runs \NPUBLIC\RIGHTS against a small generated test tree:

  • default/current directory from F:\
  • explicit directory and subdirectory paths
  • explicit file and nested file paths
  • default/current directory from inside the test directory
  • relative file and relative directory paths
  • missing directory/file paths
  • too-many-arguments and /? usage/help cases

Results are written to F:\RGHTCMP. Test input files are generated in F:\RGHTEST. Optional packaging is done with RGHTZIP.BAT.

This test does not use PUBLIC yet and does not modify trustees. It is only for capturing Novell NPUBLIC\RIGHTS output/formatting before the later NPUBLIC/PUBLIC comparison scripts are added.

Note: commands use absolute \NPUBLIC\RIGHTS so relative-path tests from inside F:\RGHTEST do not accidentally look for F:\RGHTEST\NPUBLIC\RIGHTS.
