When you run checkfiles, the routine displays the following:
Where do you want to start (default = beginning of subvol)?
To start checking files in the middle of the subvolume, enter a text constant with the
desired starting characters. Checkfiles then performs the following steps for each
file past the specified starting point in the subvolume:
1. Checkfiles displays the file name and date of last alteration.
2. For an Edit file, checkfiles displays the first ten lines of the file; otherwise, it
displays “Not an Edit file; nothing to show you.”
3. Checkfiles asks if you want to purge the file (Y or N). For files that are not Edit
files, checkfiles also asks if you want to empty the file (E).
Checkfiles stops at the end of the subvolume; to stop earlier, press BREAK.
