; DLcount Ver 2.00 Download Directory File Counter ; (c)Copyright 1992..All Rights Reserved. ; Gary L. Bouchard SysOp, The Computer Store BBS ; St. Augustine, Florida (904)794-0063 ; Sample Configuration file ; ; Lines that begin with ';' are considered comments by the program and ; ignored. To turn off a FEATURE, place a ';' in the first position of ; the line. ; ; ************************************************************************ ; Location of Pcboard.Dat File. PCB g:\pcb\PCBOARD.DAT ; ************************************************************************ ; DLFILE - Is the actual directory that contains the physical files. ; During execution of the program the Download.Lst that is ; created, first verify's that the files it lists actually ; exist before it is counted. ; DLFILE g:\pcb\dl1 DLFILE g:\pcb\dl2 ; ************************************************************************ ; Min_DLCOUNT is a variable that you can set to determine what the ; minimum download count should be, to process the DIR Text entry. In ; other words, only files that have been downloaded more than x times ; will be processed. The default is 1. Min_DLCOUNT 2 ; ************************************************************************ ; Indicates that an entry should be made to the callers log during ; execution of the program. The entry tells the Start and Completion ; times of the execution, total number of records found in Download.txt ; and the total number of DIR entries that where updated. CALLERLOG ; ************************************************************************ ; EXTERNAL_COUNTER - is an option for those that have a DOWNLOAD.TXT ; file so large that the program DLCounter cannot get thru without ; running out of memory. Answering "YES" to the option bypasses the ; regeneration of DOWNLOAD.LST inside this program, thus allowing you to ; generate your list via the DLCount-A program. The default answer is ; "NO". ; EXTERNAL_COUNTER NO ; ************************************************************************ ; USERSTRING - allows the individual BBS SysOp to create his own ; tagline to be inserted into your DIRxx Text Descriptions. The ; USERSTRING can be up to 40 characters long, not including the count. A ; replacable macro is provided to allow the user to place the count ; exactly where he/she would like it. A word of caution would be that you ; do not place the @usercount@ variable at the beginning of the line. ; If you Change the userstring, make sure that you run DLCounter with ; the /CLEAR option switch first, then change the userstring to your ; liking. ; USERSTRING Downloaded: [@USERCOUNT@] Time(s) ; ************************************************************************ ; DISKFILEDATE - Is a parameter you use to specify whether DLCounter ; should use the disk file date when updating your Dirxx entry. In other ; words if DLCounter reads the date in the description, and the related ; file has a different date, using this parameter will change the DIRxx ; decription to reflect the current file date found on disk. If this ; option is turned off or commented out, DLCounter will use whatever ; date is in the description. ; DISKFILEDATE ; ************************************************************************ ; PIPE - is a variable that allows you to specify at what position your ; secondary DIRxx line description starts at. PCBoard 14.5 is made to ; default to position 32 of the secondary line with the character '|'. ; Some users relocate thier '|' character to other locations. This ; variable will allow you to specify at what position it should start. ; If you change the position, use the /CLEAR switch FIRST, then run the ; program with the new pipe position. ; PIPE 32 ; ************************************************************************ ; OUTFILE - Is the name of the data file that DLCounter will create ; which contains the download count. ; OUTFILE g:\pcb\dlcnt1.lst ; ************************************************************************ ; MAINBOARD - If this option is turned off or commented out, the program ; will not process the main board DIR files. This is done so that you ; may have conference or node specific configuration files, which may ; not need to process the MainBoard files. This also allows those that ; have private conferences who do not wish to generate a POP files BLT ; to do so for a specific conference, and exclude certain files from ; being seen in the MainBoard BLT file. ; MainBoard ; ************************************************************************ ; BLT allows you to write a BLT Display file which contains the hottest ; files you have, ranked according to download count, sorted alphabetically. ; MIN_DOWNLOAD allows you to specify what the minimum download count ; requirement is to be included in the report. ; BLT g:\pcb\boards\bnews ; Bulletin MIN_DOWNLOAD 5 ; ************************************************************************ ; BAKS - A YES or NO answer indicates whether you want back-up files as ; the DIR files are processed. The Default is No. BAKS YES ; ************************************************************************ ; Tells DLcount what conferences should be run. Here we specify the TEXT ; file portion of the operation. List each DIRxx file that you would like ; to be included in the updates. The Main board Dirxx files are located ; automatically, and need not be listed here...Only Conference DIRxx ; files. ; CONFS 11 ; ; ************************************************************************ ; HLITE - ; Allow you to set highlighting colors to the DIR entry. The ; Default to this option is set to Null (No highlight). The program uses ; PCboards @X## color macros for Highlight. Below you will find a chart ; which labels the colors that you may use. The "@X" tells PCBoard that ; you want to colorize a set of characters in a file, and the two "##" ; number signs indicate which colors to use. The first "#" (number sign) ; is for the background color, and the second "#" is the foreground ; color. Following the example below, I have set my HLITE to display a ; BLACK background, and a high intensity RED foreground. ; ; These colors you are selecting are codes for color macros used by both ; Pcboard ver 14.5 and Prodoor ver 3.2 or greater. ; ; The following is a table for the colors and their codes: ; ; Background (first digit) Foreground (second digit) ; ------------------------ ------------------------- ; Black = 0 Black = 0 ; Blue = 1 Blue = 1 ; Green = 2 Green = 2 ; Cyan = 3 Cyan = 3 ; Red = 4 Red = 4 ; Magenta = 5 Magenta = 5 ; Yellow = 6 Yellow = 6 ; White = 7 White = 7 ; ; Background w/Blinking High Intensity Foregounds ; ; Black = 8 Black = 8 ; Blue = 9 Blue = 9 ; Green = A Green = A ; Cyan = B Cyan = B ; Red = C Red = C ; Magenta = D Magenta = D ; Yellow = E Yellow = E ; White = F White = F ; ; Examples: ; Bright White on Blue Background = @X1F ; Bright Yellow on Green Background = @X2E ; Dark Blue blinking on White Background = @XF1 ; ; HLITE @X4F
