It was tested & developed on a v15.22 system. To run it, follow the installation steps listed. If you have any questions, comments, or suggestions on the software, please E-Mail me on the Internet, or call my support system. I hope you and your users like it! 1) Create a LINER subdirectory off your main PCB directory. ie. x:\PCB\LINER (a) Unzip the file contents into this newly created subdirectory. 2) Run PCBSetup. (a) Edit your CMD.LST configuration file and add the following entry. CMD.LST Editor Command Sec Minute Use Keystroke Substitution ----------- -------- ----------- ------- -------------------------------- #) LINER 10 <--\ 0 0 x:\PCB\LINER\LINERS.PPE | \-- Normal User Sec 3) Edit the LINERS.CFG file with any text editor, and select the following: (a) LINE 1 - Enter the total number of Liners you would like to be stored and displayed in 'Anonymous' Mode. (Suggested 16, Max is 100) (b) LINE 2 - Enter "YES" for 'Anonymous' Display Mode or Enter "NO" for 'So and so said' Display Mode (c) LINE 3 - Enter "YES" for 4 second Keyboard Timeout Prompt or Enter "NO" to display the Liners automatically NOTE: Number of Liners stored & displayed (CFG Line 1) only operates in 'Anonymous' Display Mode! NOTE: 'So and so said' Display Mode contineously appends new Liners as they are added, and does NOT trim itself down. The program can work with upto 250 lines total in 'So and so said' Display Mode, which should be plenty! Anything over 250 lines will be ignored. If the LINERS.TXT file gets too large for your liking, or over 250 lines long, you can trim it down with any standard text editor. NOTE: Display Mode (CFG Line 2) is used to set the mode of Liner operation you prefer for your system. 'YES' will set it to Anonymous, and it will NOT display the users name that entered it! 'NO' will set it to So and so said, and it WILL add the name of the user that entered it! NOTE: 4 second Keyboard Timeout Prompt (CFG Line 3) was made for systems that run Liners automatically after logon, but don't want to mess up their users scripts. It will ask the user if they "Wish to view the Liners", and exit the program if they don't answer within 4 seconds. 4) If you selected 'YES' in CFG Line 2, rename "LINERS.YES" to "LINERS.TXT" or If you selected 'NO' in CFG Line 2, rename "LINERS.NO" to "LINERS.TXT" 5) Edit your menus (BRDM, BRDS, Etc) to reflect the new "LINER" command added. 6) That's it, you're done! NOTE: FILTER.TXT is a normal text file that can be edited with any standard text editor. The format is simply one word per line. This allows you to easily update the profanity filter as you think of words to add. These words can occur from anywhere within the Liner, and will be rejected! NOTE: LINER.TXT is a normal text file that can be edited with any standard text editor. The format for "Anonymous" Display Mode is one Liner per line upto 75 characters in length, plus 4 characters at the begining for the @ color code. The format for "So and so said" Display Mode consists of three lines for each Liner added. Line one is the @ color code + User Name + said the following. Line two is the @ color code plus the Liner. Line three is a blank line used to seperate the next Liner that is added. ÕÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ͸ ³REGISTRATION³ ÔÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍÍ; This program is distributed as SHAREWARE. Registration is only $7.00 US funds.
