Top uploaders PPE 1.00, Full documentation ============================================ #1. Introduction #2. How to install #3. Features, options and setup #4. More PPEs from MAYDAY #5. Disclaimer 1. Introduction ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This PPE was developed a while ago, but it was never released. It has been tested on several boards, and here it comes. If you didn't know, you are reading the documentation for a top uploaders PcBoard Programming Executable. It was written and mostly tested by WrathChild / Mayday Senior. 2. How to install ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There are many ways of installing this little bastard on 318 lines code. I will describe some of the ways you may use. #1 Install it in your logoff command, like the one released by Mayday. It will hangup the user and then calculate the top uploader. By using this way, your users don't have to be mad each time they logoff or logon. #2 Install it in your TurboLogon so all users has to wait for the update. But the first way is much smarter. #3 Install it as a command in cmd.lst, use pcbsetup.exe. When you have completed one or more of these options it's time to configure. 3. Features, Options and Setup ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When the PPE is finaly installed in PCB you are yet not done with the complete installation. You must configure, and by configuring you will be aware of features in this PPE. 1. You will probably want to exclude yourself from the TopUploaders, like if you have set your top upload bytes to a whole bunch to be able to tag and leech without any trouble, edit "NOT_IN.SHT" with your favourite editor. 2. Edit "TOPUL.CFG", change the lines for path and name of userfile and path and name of bulletine file to copy the top uploaders list to. 3. If you optionally want to use another ansi interface like, we have provided so you can optinally use "TOPULZ.PCB" instead of the original "TOPUL.PCB". To do this you must backup the old "TOPUL.PCB" and then copy or rename "TOPULZ.PCB" to "TOPUL.PCB". You can preview both these with pcbv.exe, a utility for viewing PCB-Ansi, written by me, WrathChild. 4. More PPE's from MayDay ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well, since there will always be boards (I hope) we will continue to give you the best PPE's for the sysop's with Style and for those who want's quality. 5. Disclaimer ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We can't garrantie that there are no spelling errors or uncorrect english in this text, but what the heck. We give you an extra ordinary PPE so we suggest that if you find any of the above mentioned errors, please don't give us a note, because we won't appriciate it. WrathChild / Mayday Senior
