As before it +is named "SNIPdddd.xxx", where "dddd" is the release date and "xxx" is the +archive utility extension. For example, I distribute the Apr '94 edition as +SNIP9404.LZH, using the LHA.EXE archive utility. + +New to the Dec '92 release was SNIPDIFF, an archive containing both files and +a utility to create a complete and fully-validated SNIPPETS archive using +files from the last edition of SNIPPETS which haven't changed. This +represents a considerable saving in the size of the archive and, +consequently, the time required to download it from bulletin boards and +public information services. + +Beginning the Apr '93 release, SNIPDIFF became even smaller with the +inclusion of DSAPP.EXE which allows that only the differences for changed +files need be included. DSAPP.EXE is a public domain utility for applying +changes, written by David Burton, and which is distributed with his excellent +TLIB revision control system. -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
