   1.1 Some words about DTT

       Congratulation! You've just got a totaly new utility for your
       Pcboard. This little new utility makes one bulletin of the daily
       transfers (such as downloads and uploads).


   1.2 Why should you use this?

       That is one question we can answer you very well, here's some features;

       þ Fast reading routines
       þ Detailed .INI file
         You have to change the settings is this file, either manualy or
         with the followed setup program
       þ Quick command-line switches
         To show the the commands, enter executable with "/?" as the parameter
       þ Own configuration-file for the middle line
         With loads of macros and Pcboard's internal color codes
       þ Logging support
         Will write everything that happends to a certain .LOG file, this may
         be usefull if you run this program as a maintenance or something
         else so that you cannot see what happends all the time
       þ Time and Date checking of DOWNLOAD.TXT file
         Every time this proram is making any bulletin, it makes a temporary
         file named .DAT that contains date and time of that file. When it
         runs next time, and there haven't been any transfers, it quits
       þ Nice layout
         You can choose between three different layout of the program stats,
         this has no effects for the user, but if you gets tired of one of
         them, you could change
       þ Ability of making top and bottom files
         If you want this bulletin to be displayed as a bulletin, you may
         wish to use a top and a bottom file
       þ External PPE included
         A viewer is included, if you want the transfers to be displayed by
         using the cursors up and down the screen
       þ Great ability to modify outputs
         Allmost all the macros in the middle file could be modified as you
         want yourself, like upper/lower/mixed case
       þ Finding the whole transfer protocol
         It reads all the protocols you've installed and checks its keys,
         if the file was transfered by this protocol, it extracts its name
