SO MANY CD's! Version 2.6 April 24, 1995 Do you have more CD-ROMs for your BBS callers than drives? If so, this package lets users request files from offline CD's! The Sysop is then notified at login of any pending requests; if the Sysop is logged in at the local console, he is prompted to load the necessary CD's and the requested files are then posted as attachment to messages to the requestor with an automatic pack-out after a sysop-defined number of days. This package is shareware. You may use it on an evaluation basis for up to 30 days. After that period, you must either discontinue using it or license your copy by purchasing an access key (see the file ORDERFRM.DOC). Without a proper access key, your callers will be limited to requesting a single offline file. PACKAGE CONTENTS This package consists the following files: README.1ST This file.
