Please feel free to upload this software to any electronic bulletin board.
No registration fee is required if you are using this software on a BBS that
is available to the general public.  A registration fee of $10 is required if 
your BBS is available only to those callers paying a fee or if your BBS is
not available to the general public.  

Paying a registration fee does not entitle you to any special benifits except
that it will give you that warm and fuzzy feeling knowing that you have done 
the right thing.


I have sometimes made a change to my BBS that requires a modification be made
to the PCBOARD.DAT file on all nodes.  But, being human, I sometimes forget
to change all of the PCBOARD.DAT files or make a typo when changing one of
them.  To assist me in making such changes, I created CMPRPCBD.


The following files are present in CMPD1520.ZIP:
        CMPRPCBD.CFG    - A sample configuration file.  This file contains 
                          the path and name of the PCBOARD.DAT file for each 
                          PCBoard node.  You will have to edit this file and
                          supply the appropriate names for your system.
        CMPRPCBD.DOC    - This documentation file
        CMPRPCBD.DAT    - Text file containing a description for each line
                          of the PCBOARD.DAT file.
        CMPRPCBD.EXE    - Compare PCBoard.DAT program


All files (except for CMPRPCBD.DOC) must be located in the same directory.


To install this program, just perform the following steps:
1.  Unzip the files into a subdirectory of your choice.  Make sure all files
    are located in the same subdirectory.
2.  Use an ASCII editor, such as EDIT or PCBEDIT to modify CMPRPCBD.CFG to
    list the name and path of the PCBOARD.DAT file for each PCBoard node.
    Each line of CMPRPCBD.CFG is formatted as follows:
        <node#>:<path and name of PCBOARD.DAT file>
3.  Just run the program and it will produce a short report to point out the
    differences between the PCBOARD.DAT files on each node.
