[cobalt-users] SecureCRT Users -- Script for RaQ4

["Ray Symons" <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I posted the following message earlier today, but it didn't make it through.
Maybe there is a filter somewhere that didn't like the visual basic references
and syntax in the body of the message?

If anyone who uses SecureCRT regularly would like to give this a try, you can
a zipped copy with this link of the script.

--------------------------
I put together a little script for SecureCRT that automates ls -l on the
/home/sites directory.

The entire script is pasted at the bottom of this message.   To use it, just
copy the script text, paste it into notepad, save it to the \scripts folder for
SecureCRT *with* a ".visual basic script" extension, and then run it from
the "Scripts" menu within SecureCRT -- you *do* need to be logged  into
your server, of course...

What you can do with it:

1.  Leave "ALL" in the prompt and get a complete site list

2.  Enter anything else in the prompt that will work with "grep" to
     get a refined list:

     *  host.domain.tld will result in just that site being displayed
     * .com or .net or .org, etc. will list all respective sites with
        those tld's
     * domain or even a fragment of the domain will list any site(s)
        [.net, .com, etc.] that are part of that domain

3.  Assign it to a shortcut key in keymapper and get one-keystroke
     access to the command

The best use for this is looking up a site number quickly for whatever
domain.  I have another one here that runs tail -f and another that is in the
works to automatically setup a cgi-sys directory for sites with FrontPage
extensions on them.  It's really turning into a nice little collection.

If anybody has any feedback or suggestions for commands that would really be
worth including in something like this, drop me a note and I'll add them in as
time permits (off-list might be best).

If there is enough positive feedback and interest, I'll put them all in a zip
file somewhere for download.  Thanks in advance for your feedback.
