Copy Boy is an add-on for Fog Creek CityDesk (CityDesk is a trademark of Fog Creek Software, Inc.).
You can download a copy of CityDesk from http://www.fogcreek.com/CityDesk/

Please back up your CityDesk files before working with Copy Boy.

Brief Documentation:
===================
Copy Boy should open with your most recent CityDesk file loaded. To load a different
CityDesk file, use File | Open.

Each tab inside of Copy Boy provides a different function:

Dates - Shows all articles that have either a "never publish before" date or a "never
 publish after" date (or both). You can use the "Copy to Clipboard" button to copy the
 details from this page so that you can paste them into another application such as
 Excel or CityDesk.

Import File - Type in a filename, or use the browse button to locate a file. Fill in 
 whatever other information you like. Click Import to bring the file into CityDesk 
 as an article.

Authors - Bulk update for author information. Use the dropdown list to choose which 
 author's articles to update. You can specify a new author, new "about the author" 
 information, or both. Click Make Changes to update all articles with the selected
 author. Note that you can also choose to update all articles, or only articles with
 no author.

Undelete - The listbox shows all of the deleted articles that are still in your CityDesk
 file. Select any article and click Undelete to return it to active use.

Publish Names - The grid shows all of your HTML files and articles together with the
 names that will be used to publish them to your web site. Empty "publish as" names will
 be assigned arbitrary names by CityDesk. You can edit the publish names as you wish.

HTML to Article - The listbox shows all of the HTML files in your CityDesk file. Select
 one or more HTML files (use shift-click and ctrl-click to select multiple files), fill
 in other information, and click Convert to convert the selected files to articles.
 
Import Templates - Select another CityDesk (cty) file, and click Import to import all
 templates from that CityDesk file to this one.
