| 1. Introduction                                                             |

    Enhanced Flag is a PPE replacement for the "More?" prompt during a file
listing.  It gives you an easier to method of flagging files for downloading,
viewing, nuking, et. al. by using a lightbar and hotkey driven interface, in-
cluding all of the arrow keys.

    Additionally, through the usage of configuration files, EFLAG can spawn
custom external commands (other PPE's) in addition to or replacing any or all
of the built-in commands.

    This PPE was written in PPL 3.0 for PCBoard 15.2+ only.

| 2. Installation                                                             |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    Simply unzip the original zip file into its own directory and run the
INSTALL.BAT file.  It will automatically tell you the syntax needed to install
EFLAG.  For manual installation, run MKPCBTXT to edit your PCBTEXT file, and
have Prompt #549 point to this ppe.  Ie: !C:\PPE\EFLAG\EFLAG.PPE

    If you are upgrading from EFLAG v1.0, you must REINSTALL the entire thing
because EFLAG v2.0 has been completely redone and everything is different.


+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 3. Configuration                                                            |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    There are three configuration files, all of which are optional.  Default
values will be used in the lack of presence of these configuration files, but
the colours will most like clash with your boards colour scheme. :)  The
configuration files are as follows:

        EFLAG.CFG   : Eflag behaviour-type options; only 4 lines long. :)
        PROMPT1.CFG : Configure the look, feel, and commands for Prompt #1.
        PROMPT2.CFG : Configure the look, feel, and commands for Prompt #2.

    All config files are well-documented inside and should be fairly straight
forward.  None of them are heinously long or complex, unless you choose it to
be. :)

| 4. General Notes                                                            |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    After v1.0 of EFLAG, which was released back in August 1994, I made some
minor changes/additions/modifications.  Some were minor "bug" fixes, which
were mostly small details in packaging, and did not affect the actual usage of
EFLAG.  A few new features were added as well to make EFLAG even more useful.

    However, since that time, PPL 3.0 and PCBoard 15.2 was released and the
continuation of writing more sloppy code in PPL 2.0 seemed moot.  Hence, after
an extremely busy few months dealing with many many things at once, EFLAG 2.0
was completely rewritten in PPL 3.0 and reincarnated.

| 5. Supporting PPE's                                                         |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
    EFLAG has been personally tested by me <g> to work with the following PPE's
fully with no problem:

        o  PWA FileView v2.5
        o  SCuM-NuKeR v1.0/1.1
        o  BlackCat's File Viewer v1.0
        o  BlackCat's Nuker v0.76b

Included is EXTERNAL.ZIP which includes some front-end ppe's for usage with
EFLAG to allow EFLAG to execute some the above ppe's seamlessly.  Take a look
inside there for examples, instructions, and details.  If you have a particu-
lar PPE that you wish to interface with EFLAG, feel free to drop me a note if
you need help.

    Haven't I released enough PPE's with source code?! :)  Since I haven't
gotten much feedback about whether or not including my source code is good
and/or useful with my PPE's, I won't bloat this zip file any further by in-
cluding it.  If you want the source code, simply contact me and ask me for it;
I'll be happy to give you a copy (provided you don't go and redistribute it!).

    I really hope people don't start thinking that all I write are ppe's.  I'm
just a lowly C programmer who is forced to also do Scheme, LISP and Prolog, so
dabbling in PPL is a good deviation from the usual tedium. :)

    Otherwise, if you need to reach me for some reason, you can send internet
email to "drew@xinet.com", or leave me a message on Attitude Net, or call my
board: The Silicon Phalanx at 310-575-8567 and apply for access.

Peace,
