- RBBS-PC UTILITY PROGRAMS

- CALRSTAT:
-
- CALRSTAT is designed to calculate statistics from the CALLERS file of the
- RBBS-PC software. This might be useful if you want to keep information on
- the use of the BBS for a month at a time, for example.
-
- The program expects the CALLERS file to be in the default drive. It does
- not change the file, so you need not necessarily back it up or change the
- name first.
-
- The version provided is compiled (and even then takes a long time to do its
- job.) If you want a copy of the BASIC code, you may call my board and download
- it. Madison IBM-PC User's Group BBS: EVENINGS & WEEKENDS (608)262-4939.
-
- The program calculates and reports the following:
-
- 1. The beginning date and the ending date of the report.
- 2. The total on-line time of the various callers.
- 3. The number of 1200, 300, and 450 baud callers.
- 4. The number calling at NO parity or at EVEN parity.
- 5. The number of downloaded files.
- 6. The number of different files downloaded.
- 7. The number of uploaded files.
- 8. The number of aborted transfer attempts.
- 9. The number of downloads of each file by filename.
-
- I have not included error messages (I deal with those as I go along), log-ons
- denied, nor names of callers since that is included in the USERS file.
-
- After the program has run, it will report to screen the totals, and give you
- the option of printing the summary or both the summary and the individual
- file activity.

- CALR-PAK
-
- I find that even with the reduced CALLERS file size, it gets very large to
- run on floppy disks if you go more than several days. I use a hard disk and
- keep the information for a month at a time and, even operating only evenings
- and weekends, the file size may get to 180K or more.
-
- This program allows you to read the data from the CALLERS file one record
- at a time. When you have determined the amount you wish to keep, the program
- then records that amount to a CALLERS.NEW file. The old CALLERS file is not
- changed, thus avoiding accidental erasures.
-
- This program also eliminates any of those extra blank records that sometimes
- creep into the CALLERS file.
-
- THESE PROGRAMS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND MAY BE COPIED FREELY SO LONG AS THE
- COPYRIGHT NOTICES ARE NOT CHANGED OR BYPASSED.
