It can also fix some problems that may occur in rare +circumstances. Since it also re-writes the database in a more sensible order +(a bit like defragmenting your hard disk) you may find that you get a speed +improvement in Miranda by running your database through this tool. + +Todo: There is no support for any command line parameters to allow for +unattended operation yet, and it would be helpful if there was better +integration with Miranda to allow compaction when necessary. It's also +possible to fix a larger range of faults than it currently can do, but that +requires significantly more work. + +This programme is copyrighted by Richard Hughes 2001,2002,2003 and is covered +under the terms of the GNU General Public License. + +Source code is available from the Miranda IM website. -- cgit v1.2.3
