# @(#)scanspool.pl	1.20 4/6/92 00:47:35
#
# Written by:  Landon Curt Noll		(chongo was here  /\../\)
#
# This code is placed in the public domain.
#
# scanspool - Perform a big scan over all articles in <patharticles>
#
# usage:
#    scanspool [-a active_file] [-s spool_dir] [-v] [-c] [-n]
#
#    -a active_file	active file to use (default <pathdb>/active)
#    -s spool_dir	spool tree (default <patharticles>)
#    -v 		verbose mode
#			verbose messages begin with a tab
#			show articles found in non-active directories
#    -c			check article filenames, don't scan the articles
#    -n			don't throttle innd
#
# NOTE: This take a while, -v is a good thing if you want to know
#	how far this program has progressed.
#
# This program will scan first the active file, noting problems such as:
#
#	malformed line
#	group aliased to a non-existent group
#	group aliased to a group tat is also aliased
#
# Then it will examine all articles under your news spool directory,
# looking for articles that:
#
#	basename that starts with a leading 0
#	basename that is out of range with the active file
#	does not contain a Newsgroups: line
#	article that is all header and no text
#	is in a directory for which there is no active group
#	article that is in a group to which it does not belong
#
# Scanspool understands aliased groups.  Thus, if an article is posted
# to foo.old.name that is aliases to foo.bar, it will be expected to
# be found under foo.bar and not foo.old.name.
#
# Any group that is of type 'j' or 'x' (4th field of the active file)
# will be allowed to show up under the junk group.
#
# Scanspool assumes that the path of a valid newsgroup's directory
# from the top of the spool tree will not contain any "." character.
# Thus, directories such as out.going, tmp.dir, in.coming and
# news.archive will not be searched.  This program also assumes that
# article basenames contain only decimal digits.  Last, files under
# the top level directory "lost+found" are not scanned.
#
# The output of scanspool will start with one of 4 forms:
#
#    FATAL: 	    fatal or internal error 			(to stderr)
#
#    WARN: 	    active or article format problem,		(to stderr)
#		    group alias problem, find error,
#		    article open error
#
#    path/123:	    basename starts with 0,			(to stdout)
#		    article number out of range,
#		    article in the wrong directory,
#		    article in directory not related to
#		        an active non-aliases newsgroup
#
#    \t ...	    verbose message starting with a tab		(to stdout)


# Data structures
#
# $gname2type{$name}
#    $name	- newsgroup name in foo.dot.form
#    produces  => 4th active field  (y, n, x, ...)
#		  alias type is "=", not "=foo.bar"
#
# $realgname{$name}
#    $name      - newsgroup name in foo.dot.form
#    produces  => newsgroup name in foo.dot.form
#		  if type is =, this will be a.b, not $name
#
# $lowart{$name}
#    $name      - newsgroup name in foo.dot.form
#    produces  => lowest article allowed in the group
#		  if type is =, this is not valid
#
# $highart{$name}
#    $name      - newsgroup name in foo.dot.form
#    produces  => highest article allowed in the group
#		  if type is =, this is not valid
#		  If $highart{$name} < $lowart{$name},
#		  then the group should be empty
