This PPE is a Modification of David Terry's PPE "FLAG"..

You should unzip this PPE into your FLAG directory over the old files..
If you do not currently have FLAG.PPE installed, please download it from a BBS
in your area or from SALT AIR, install it, then unzip thease files over the
old ones..

The function of this PPE is to print a Flashing "@" sign by the file names of
files a user has already downloaded when they do a Directory List/Scan..

After unziping the files over FLAG.PPE, create a directory under them called
"USERS", this directory will store the data files used to keep track of what
files a user has downloaded..

This PPE will only keep track of files downloaded with EXTERNAL protocols, and
modification to the PCBSx.BAT is required..  Here is an example of my
PCBSZ.BAT file:

@ECHO OFF
ECHO %3
IF EXIST %DSZLOG% DEL %DSZLOG%
ZMSEND.EXE %3
IF "%3" == "@C:PCBDSZ.LST" GOTO END
ECHO %3 > pcbdsz.lst
:END
COPY PCBDSZ.LST Z:\PCB\DLIST
                ^^^^^^^

This directory should point to the directory specified on line one of FLAG.CFG
(Covered later in this file)..

You should modify all of your PCBSx.BAT files to look something like this, and
function the same way, this is required for this PPE to function properly..

FLAG.CFG:

This file only contains two lines, the path to where your DLOG. and DLIST.
files will be copyed to in the PCBSx.BAT files, and on line 2, a Y or N,
if it is a Y, then the PPE will close FLAG.CFG and OPEN FLAG#.CFG (Number
replaced with the current Node number..), you will have to create a new CFG
file for each node, and set the Batch files to copy the file to the correct
directory..

Example for 1 Node use:
FLAG.CFG:

Z:\PCB\
N

Example for 2 Node use:
FLAG.CFG:

Z:\PCB\
Y

FLAG1.CFG:

Z:\PCB\NODE1\

FLAG2.CFG:

Z:\PCB\NODE2\

I know this is confusing, and if you need any help, call me VOICE at:
417-683-3085

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FLAG.TCN:

This file contains only one line, on that line is the name (In UPPER CASE!)
of any one file you would like to be left out of the DATAFILE, this will save
time and space if you put something like "ROUND.QWK" (Depending on the name
of the .QWK file created on your BBS)... For more info, call me VOICE at
417-683-4953

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FLAG.KEY

This file containg two lines,

Line1: Your BBS Name
Line2: Registration code (Or 000000 for Unregistered!)

(Read REGISTER.FRM for information on Registering this PPE...Its only $5.00!)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Your users might not understand what the "@" sign means, so I suggest you let
them know in a @USER@ message or in the NEWS file..

Now, the installation isn't done yet, we also need to add "PUTDATA.PPE" to
the PCBTEXT files for all of your languages..
Modify line #478 in all of your PCBTEXT files to look something like this:

!Z:\PCB\PPE\FLAG\PUTDATA.PPE

Of course, modify this to match the path where you installed this ppe..

When all of thease things are done, and I know this has been a bit complicated
your new FLAG.PPE should be working..  If it dosn't, E-Mail me, NetMail me,
call me voice, call my BBS, do whatever you have to do to put me through hell
for makeing such a bad program ;-)..  The numbers/addresses are listed at the
end of this file..

Refer to OLDFLAG.PPE, OLDFLAG.PPS and OLDFLAG.DOC for the original,
un-modified versions of FLAG.PPE...
