Hi all,

I'm moving my setup from a windows box to a raspberry pi. I've imported the file base configuration and copied over all the directories and files but the file base doesn't seem to have a global edit facility like the message base editor does.... I've got a lot of file bases and was hoping there was an
easier / quicker way than editing each file base one by one?

Cheers,
toofar.

Download http://cmech.dynip.com/fbw2nix.zip and move fbw2nix.exe to Mystic home

folder then execute. MAKE SURE you backup your fbases.dat file as a precaution,

though the program creates a file fbases.new that has to be moved to fbases.dat

after backup (see file_id.diz). Should you need any mods for your particular system just holler, I can update and re-gen the progam readily. :)

Note that you run this under Windows BEFORE copying Mystic files to linux/rpi!

Fine by me, but I wrote that one for myself so I need to work with whomever uses it to make sure it all works ok, though it certainly should :)
