■ INTRODUCTION ■

 Hello!

 This is my second PPe i'v made for Triloxy. The first one was the online ansi
 requester.
 Now, the fact that i'v started coding this 1liner, is due to an idea Speed
 Freak and Doctor K-os had. They were thinking about a 1liner with a nuker, 
 so they said:"Let's ask Turbo-d, he'll make it for us,hehehe". And so they did, and,
 well, here's the result. I think you'll like it, because in this 1liner there
 are options NEVER seen in a 1liner PPe beforee. Now all these options and 
 files need a Little bit of an explanation, because otherwise, you might find
 it pretty  complicated to undestand the ppe.
 First i'll give you a list of EVERYTHING this PPe does, and what you can do, 
 and wich files you should CERTAINLY take a look at:


■ MAIN OPTIONS ■

 ■ Add 1liner: here a 1liner can be added, and with the arrows, the current
               color can be EASELY and IMMEDIATLY be changed. when your done,
               the ppe will ask to save,continue or abort. Abort puts you 
               immediately back in the main, without saving 1liner.continue 
               goes back to editing the1liner, and save gives ya the next 
               question: Save 1liner Anonymous?
               ■ YES: saves 1liner anonymous
               ■ NO: saves 1liner with alias
               ■ CONTINUE: goes back to the editing space
               ■ ABORT: puts you back into main, without saving 1liner
 ■ Who Wrote What: simply displays who wrote wich 1liner, with users location
                   or group, and with the time and date when the 1liner was
                   read.
 ■ Nuke 1liner: this is the option that, by my knowledge, NO 1liner has ever
                had. if the user chooses this option, the ppe will check wether
                the user's securetylevel is bigger than the one YOU defined in
                the cfg ( more about that later ). if it is bigger, it will put
                the user in the nukemenu, if it isn't it will check the 
                ADDMIT.DAT file if the user's name is in it. if it is, it will
                put the user in the nukemenu, if it isn't, it will display a
                string to the user, saying that his securetylevel is to low to
                enter the nukemenu.
                Now, if the user finds himself in the nukemenu, he will be 
                presented with 10 options :
              ■1■ nuke bytes: This will nuke a certain amount of bytes from
                the dude's account who wrote the selected 1liner
              ■2■ nuke time: Same as above, but with time
              ■3■ nuke files: Will INCREASE the amount of files downloaded
                from the dude who wrote the selected 1liner, wich means that
                he can download 1 file less from his current ratio :)
              ■4■ write message: Here the user can write a message to the
                dude who wrote the selected 1liner, saying something like:
                BUZZ OF DUDE!! DON'T WRITE 1LINERS LIKE THIS!!
                (the 1liner will be added to the message, to refresh the nuked
                dude's memory :))
              ■5,6,7,8■ these are independ actions from the nukemenu. here
                the user can add and remove users or words from the illegal
                word list and user list (more about that later, in the file
                section )
              ■9■ Quit and save: this quits and save any action taken in the 
                nukemenu (not including 5,6,7,8, they are immediatly saved) and
                will post the message, if a message is written
              ■10■ Quit w/o save: this quits the nukemenu, WITHOUT saving the
                actions taken. Again excluding 5,6,7,8 
 ■ Quit/continue: This will start the cleaning of the temporary files and 
                  if defined in the cfg, will write a string to the logfile
                  (user doesn't notice anything from this)


■ FILE SECTION ■

 The ppe makes use of a lot of temporary files, but you won't notice anything
 from it. If you would happen to find those files while multitasking, DON'T 
 delete them, it would crash the ppe :(
 Now, in the zip the following files should be present:

 ■ tly-1lne.cfg : CHECK this file out for all the options you can define, 
                  they'r all VERY clear explained in the file itself
 ■ tly-1lne.doc : You'r reading it :)
 ■ tly-1lne.ppe : euhm, dunno, just delete it...NOT!
 ■ addmit.dat   : again, read the file for more info, it's a userdatabase
                  for users with a low level, you'll understand when you read
                  the file
 ■ usrtrash.can : DEFENATLY read the file. Here you can define a list of users
                  which you DON'T want to be able to add a 1liner...
 ■ wrdtrash.can : THIS is one of the NICE options of this ppe, becaus here
                  you can put words in which you don't want users to be able
                  to write in their 1liners. READ the file for MORE info...
 ■ add.pcb,adduser.pcb,addword.pcb,delete.pcb,main.pcb,nuked.pcb,nukemen.pcb,
   nukemsg.pcb  : These are All graphic files, and should not be tampered with,
                  because there are some tricks in 'em, to hide the cursor form
                  showing, eheh...check them out and try to find the trick...
                  It should be simple, but PLEASE leave it INTACT

 Next, the ppe creates files for himself, here a list with explanation:

 ■ 1liners.dat : the file wich contains the 1liners with the info about who 
                 wrote them
 ■ realname.dat: when a user writes a 1liner, his ALIAS is put in this file,
                 on the place corresponding with the 1liner, EVEN when a user
                 writes ANONYMOUS. this file is used by the NUKEMENU, were
                 the user's real name is displayed :). Very nice if an insulting
                 1liner is written anonymous, and you want to know who wrote it!
 ■ credits.dat: this file is made if a user is nuke, it contains the info 
                how much bytes,time and files have been nuke, so the next time
                the nuked user logs in, he's shown this info, ehehhe :)
 ■ nukes.dat : this is a database, containing the names of the dudes who have
               been nuked, with the number of times they already have been nuked.
               this file is used by the nukemenu.

 This should be the complete list of all the important info...make sure you 
 take a look at the cfg, and at the .CAN and the ADDMIT.DAT file...they give
 a complet explanation about themselfs....
