- Carrier Droppings Lister V5.0
-
- This program is FREE! If it doesn't work for you remember, most
- things are worth what ya pay for 'em. I've tested it on my BBS!
- and so far I haven't had any problems with it. It was written
- for Wildcat V3.6 but _MAY_ work for earlier versions. I don't
- run an earlier version so I don't really know if it does or not.
-
- You should have found the following files included in the CDROP001.ZIP
-
- CDROPCFG.HLP Help file for Carrier Droppings Lister Config Program
- CDROPCFG.EXE Carrier Droppings Configuration Program
- CDROPLST.EXE Carrier Droppings Processor/Bulletin Generator
- FILE_ID.DIZ Description File .
- DESC.SDI Description File
-
- If you didn't receive the above files you may have an incomplete
- version.

- I'm not responsible for anything that happens as a result of your
- using this program or any part of this program or for it's usability
- or lack of usability. You use this at your own risk. 'nuff said
- I hope.
-
- Carrier Droppings is easy to get going. Unzip the files into any
- directory you want. You can unzip them into your WC30 directory
- or you can make a seperate one for the Carrier Dropping programs.
- Run the CDROPCFG.EXE program and enter all information requested.
- There is on-line help for each of the fields if you're not sure
- what to do but it's really simple. Enter the node that you are
- configuring, if you are a single node you still need to enter
- node 1. If you're multi node then you need to run the configuratio
- program once for each node. Enter you BBS name, your first name,
- last name, path to your activity log, path and file name for the
- bulletin or hello screen you want to produce. Enter any @ codes
- you want for the colors of the bulletin. A small window in the
- lower portion of the screen will give you an idea of how the colors
- will look when the bulletin is produced. The option that asks if
- you want to Add/Overlay Bulletin can serve you a couple of ways.
- If you like to keep one big activity log spanning several days,
- you can just choose to add to the bulletin/hello screen and a new
- bulletin will be created EACH TIME cdroplst is run. If you are
- multi node, you can set up node 1 as O to overlay yesterdays
- bulletin and set up the remaining nodes as A to produce a display
- for each node all in one bulletin then the bulletin will only
- be written over when CDROPLST is run for node1, the runs for the
- remaining nodes will add to the bulletin. Once you have all the
- information the way you want it press F10 to save it and exit.
- That's it for configuring this thing.
-
- To run Carrier Droppings, use the following format from a batch
- file. Do not include quotes shown below and DO NOT include a "-"
- or a "/" before the parameter you're passing to CDROPLST. The
- only thing to remember when running CDROPLST is that it's config
- file CDROPCFG.nnn must be in same directory as CDRPOLST.
-
- ex. "CDROPLST 001" (remember don't include quotes)
- ex. "CDROPLST 001 F" (the "F" is for fast, it eliminates the pauses)
-
- This will run Carrier Droppings for Node 1 and produce
- the bulletin for NODE1. To run this for node 2 and
- change the 001 to 002 above.
-
- ex. "CDROPLST 002"
-
- If you encounter a problem with the Carrier Droppings program
- you can call my board.
