Hello All!
I'm working on cleaning up my list of fanfics posted to the FFML in the
past six (or more) months and I am in need of some help.
The url for the list is
http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/8222/ffmllist.html
The web page is quite large (389k) and uses tables. I have listed over 1800
fanfic postings and I am going to add another 600 shortly.
Please check it out and notify me of any inaccuracies. Such as:
Wrong authors.
Fanfics posted by person A for person B (who isn't on the FFML).
Old/out dated e-mail addys. For example, Kun-chan and Numbski have changed
theirs this past year.
I am currently updating the list with the archive number for the post and I
want to make each entry clickable. (E-mail the author and/or submit a
request to the FFML archive)
To that end ....
!HELP!
egrep help !!!!!
What parameters does the egrep command on the archive support?
I have been trying to use the archive to get a list of fanfics that I
accidentaly deleted. (Bert's BGC, Oneshot's Ranma's Girls, onna-red, and
others).
How do I get a listing for a post four or more months ago?
Can I just search the subject lines for a phrase?
For example, I can send the following message:
To: fanfic-request.com
Subject: archive
Message: egrep oneshot latest/*
quit
I get a list that does not go as far back (time wise) as I would like.
Any help would be appreciated.
