***************************************************************************** NewAlias.PPE v1.0 09/15/93 What does it do? NewAlias will ask your users IF they wish to change their Alias when entering an Alias allowed conference.... Installation: There are many ways to install NewAlias.ppe....The easiest would be by accessing the program with the Cmd.Lst If you have Conference specific Cmd.lst you will have to configure it for all the conferences you allow an Alais, or those you wish to allow a change using the NewAlias PPE.. Note - This will not prompt the user for a change when they enter a conference. Example: edit you Cmd.Lst or Conference Cmd.lst to look something like this, NA 20 C:\newAlias\alias.ppe In order for NewAlias to ask for an Alias change, it must be loaded from within a display file...I have found that most Sysops don't use a intro file in most conferences, so that seemed to be the best choice.. So how do we do it? Using a text editor, on the first line enter the full path to the NewAlias files Example: Your Intro file should look something like this, !C:\newAlias\alias.ppe Now save this file...It should only have one line. IF you happen to already have an existing Intro file...Insert your path on the last line of your Intro file...Be sure to add a @WAIT@ or @PAUSE@ on the line preceeding the full path to the NewAlias.PPE Remember, you must have a conference specific intro file for each conference you allow....I found it easier to have the same Path and Intro file in all my Alias allowed conferences --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Registration is $5.00 US Funds..This will replaced the "Unregistered Copy" to "Registered to (Your Name)"...Registered Copies are only available by download from The Galaxy BBS (609-678-5360) Send payment to: The Galaxy BBS 41 Morningside Drive Pennsville, N.J. 08070 I can be reached by calling The Galaxy BBS (609-678-5360) Or by way of The Rime Network (Site #5183) Thats it.....I hope you find this PPE useful.
