   What does it do? Why... It converts those nasty | (pipe) codes to PCBoard's   
own @X codes. This can be a mighty handy feature for those of you who are on
nets where people just INSIST on using them.. (Hey.. They do look cool..)
Anyways, in the next release, I will probably also make a nice @X to pipe
convertor for your OUTBOUND mail, so those other sysops won't get pissed at
YOU for using @X codes.. Heh.. Anyways, the introduction:

   Alright.. Tired of PIPE2PCB? Lemme guees, it doesn't work on your PCBoard, 
eh? Well, finally theres an alternative! PipeConv v1.0beta! Theres one thing
I always do when I write software, and that is, BETA TEST the hell out of it.
This program has been beta-tested extensively by me and a few friends that
run PCBoard. Right now, it only works with ZIP files, but I will add support
for ARJ and LZH and ARC very soon. I just chose ZIP becuase it's probably
the most widely-used right now. This support will be added in the final
release.

   Theres no registration fee or you have to call my bbs and get a code (even
though its free).. That shit is lame, and I know people won't use it if you
have to do that, so I didn't. This is a completely functionally version
(well..:) ). I just ask ONE thing.. If you find ANY bugs, PLEASE let me know
VIA anyone in Calculus, my board, or my VMB (805.645.5489). I want to make
this program work for any copy of any frontdoor and any version of PCBoard.
By the way, you can probably use this with any frontdoor, just make sure you
run this program before it tosses your mail.

   Alright, you wanna get this thing working NOW. Ok.. For this release,
you only need PKZIP and PKUNZIP in your path (this is NECESSARY).. It'll
end up probably ERASING your packs if it doesn't exist (sorry..). I'll make
sure that it'll be a bit more safe next time. But this one WILL work if
it's in your path. Now.. The config file.. What we need is a INBOUND
directory and a work directory. If you're using Qfront, your inbound will
probably be C:\QFRONT\INBOUND\ (note.. You NEED the trailing backslash).
Your work directory can be C:\QFRONT\WORK\ or even a RAM drive.. Just something
where the directory will be clean, cause it trashes the files in this dir. :)
Line 1 is the inbound dir, and Line 2 is the work directory. Now, simple..
Just run PIPECONV [config file] and it will work. You can specify the filename
or a complete path to the config file. It will find it either way. If you
have ANY problems, contact me at a way shown below.
