Hi,

I have received several emails to my personal account about some of the
utilities I have published on github for dxspider.
I think it's best to explain it here for those who have questions.

The following utilities are classified as (I)nternal dxspider commands or
(E)xternal for Linux:

I/E		check_build.pl
  E		compression.pl
I		conndisc.pl		
  E		conndisc_all.pl	
I		mnodes.pl	
I		musers.pl	
I		send_pc92.pl	
  E		spots_node.pl	
I		summary.pl		
I		total.pl		
  E		total_conn.pl	
  E		total_frames.pl 
I/E		undo_newbuild.pl	
I		update_ip.pl        
I		view_dupes.pl
I		who.pl

The above commands can be downloaded using the name they have in the list
above and the command:

wget -N
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/EA3CV/dxspider_info/main/<script_name.pl>
-O /spider/local_cmd/<script_name.pl>')

The above command will only download the script, if it is newer than the one
we have on our host, or does not exist.
It is also a good tool to keep up to date.

It is recommended that after downloading a new or updated command, it is run
from the console:
load/cmd

You are advised to read the script header. In it you can find information
necessary for the use of the command. Especially if you need to use a perl
module that is not installed on the host. Normally, the way to install it
from a Linux terminal is indicated with 'su -'.

These utilities have been created for certain needs that have arisen. They
are not intended to replace any of the current spider code, I'm just sharing
them with you.
It's not the best, for sure, but it's what I've been able to do.
