Martin Iturbide:
Hello again
For example, here I attach a file I changed with AddToFile.
I run:
- AddToFile.cmd aacgain.exe,option AAC file normalizer,BLDLEVEL,Glen Sawyer,1.9.0,AAC file normalizer,Fixpack,Asd

What I would like to do is to keep the same file date of the compile date. Any suggestions there?
Regards
Dave Yeo:
Not every user has to download Addtofile.cmd, just any developer wanting to build the package. Should be able to design the makefile to not error out if Addtofile.cmd isn't available too. Not sure how.
Dave Yeo:
I apologize, seems you can add the bldlevel info to a binary. Looks like the script would need to be extended to add a different date then current.
Martin Iturbide:
No problem.
I just need to understand what should be on:
- Build Machine: Maybe I should put that on blank, since I don't know the build machine. But I don't know how to do that with AddToFile yet.
- ASD Feature ID: I don't know what is this.
- Fixpack: The OS/2-ArcaOS fixpack level? or I just leave it blank? I also don't know the fixpack level of the build machine.
- Date: I need to find how to put the older compile date with AddToFile and also try not to change the file date.
Regards
Dave Yeo:
For build machine, blank or perhaps something like generic? Don't know what asd is either. I abuse the fixpak to add a version number, eg v2.5.
You can use touch to change the date and time of a binary or any file. The -r parameter is interesting. touch --help.
