Disclaimer:	None whatsoever.  No one here is silly enough to
		believe that we have to worry about a program like
		this doing any damage whatsoever to your software,
		system or scruples.
		If anything weird happens, you got hold of a
		modified (probably sabotaged) version.

Description:	Will permit users to delete their own registrations (user records).
		The user will have the opportunity to back out of the command.
		After execution a courteous goodby screen is displayed, and the user
		is tossed off the board.
		The user's record will be marked for deletion in the next event and a
		logfile (suicide.log) will be created (1st time) and collect the name,
		alias and date of each suicide.
		This also provides a quick way for the sysop to delete any user, by 
		logging in as the user and accessing the command.
		Since this is designed to permit selfimmolation by the user, lockout is
		not activated by this ppe - we leave room for a later change of heart.

Files included:
	file_id.diz	bbs description
	suicide.doc	thisfile
	suicide.ppe	the executable
	suicide1	opening screen (allows an out)
	suicide2	goodbye screen (after execution)

Installation:	Recommended:  add as a command to the USER menu. 
		1.	Create a directory for the MAKEUP.PPE files
			They may be in a common ppl/ppe directory,
			since the filenames are all similar.
		2.	Unzip (or move) all MAKEUP.PPE files into
			the designated directory.

		If your USER menu accesses regular commands:
		3.	Start PCBSETUP
		4.	Select "B File Locations"
		5.	Select "B Configuration Files"
		6.	Select "Name/Loc of Default CMD.LST File"
		7.	Hit F2 to edit the CMD.LST file
		8.	Hit AltI to create a new entry
		9.	In the "Command" field, name it what you like
		10.	Set security if you like - use your own ideas
		11.	Enter the complete path to and include "SUICIDE.PPE"
		12.	Hit "ESC" to back out, until asked
			"Save configuration files (Y/N/Q=Quick Save) ?"
		13.	Answer "Y" or "Q" to save the change.

		If you use a .MNU file for your USER menu:
		3.	Activate Mkpcbmnu (USERmenuname)
		4.	Hit F2 twice to access the menu commands
		5.	In the "Keyword" field, name the command what you like
		10.	Set security if you like - use your own ideas
		11.	"Type" is PPE
		12.	Enter the complete path to and include "SUICIDE.PPE"
		13.	Hit "ESC" once to back out
		14.	Answer "Y" to save the change.

		Then add the command and description to the displayfile for your
		USER menu.  PCBedit is excellent for this.

		You may put it anyplace you like, of course - on a
		display file, as a command, or whatever - see PCBoard
		docs for ideas.  Just remember that this ppe will give
		the user the option of deleting his account.  Once activated,
		the user's record will be flagged for deletion and he will be
		immediately tossed off the board!

Modification:	Both the opening and goodbye screens are simple textfiles that you
		may replace, modify or do with whatever you like.  They are given
		with the standard Atlantis BBS headers.  We have no advertisements in
		the screens or in the ppe itself.

Distribution:	Please distribute Suicide as is, and do not provide changed 
		displayfiles or extra files to the archive.

Support:	We can't imagine what we could help you with on something this
		simple, but we're here, and you're welcome to check us out.
