The CIS Node Locator ShareWare Version 1.5b Copyright (c) 1993,1994 Andy Abercrombie Alpha and OmegaWare All Rights Reserved Page i INTRODUCTION Welcome Welcome to The CIS Node Locator version 1.5b! This program will determine the location of a node when you enter the three- character abbreviation used on Compuserve Information Service. It should be helpful during a conference to find out where others are calling from without having to ask. About the Program The CIS Node Locator version 1.5b, from here on out also referred to as CisNodes, was written in ANSI C using Borland's C++ version 3.1 compiler. Protogen was used to create the first prototype. Corresponding documentation was prepared using AmiPro and WordPerfect for Windows. Compuserve is a registered trademark of Compuserve Incorporated. Microsoft and Windows are registered trademarks of Microsoft, Inc. AmiPro is a registered trademark of Lotus Incorporated. WordPerfect is a registered trademark of WordPerfect Incorporated.

If your communication program is a DOS version, you must run it in a window, not a full-screen mode. Refer to your Windows Manual for help in accomplishing this. With your communication program open, select and maximize the CisNodes icon. If using a mouse, double-clicking the icon will give you these results. At this point a ShareWare notice window will appear, offering you the chance to register your program. Choose the No button to continue with CisNodes. Next, if the data file is more than sixty days old, a window will appear reminding you that an update of this file is due. To continue on to CisNodes, pick the Yes button. Now you have arrived at the CisNodes main window. Position this window in a convenient location on your screen. The ENTRY BOX is where you enter the three-letter abbreviation for a node. A node is obtained in a conference on CompuServe by typing ["/UST"], the command to display a list of people in the conference room, along with the three-letter node representing their location. Note: CIM/WinCIM users do not need to use a command to see a list of conference participants; this information is automatically displayed. Once the node is typed in CisNodes' Entry Box, pressing {Enter} or choosing the FIND button causes the node's location to appear in its display box. If {Enter} is used, the Entry Box remains high-lighted for immediate re-entry of another node. CisNodes will start and always stay on top by default; this was implemented for use with WinCIM. This feature can be turned off from the system menu. This program is like most of Windows programs as far as how to navigate. From the program menu you may exit CisNodes or obtain online Help. Keyboard Use General Use Keys: Tab will cycle through the button and entry box Enter will process the high-lighted button or the entry box Alt+Tab will cycle you through all the applications you have running in Windows From the Entry-Box: Alt+F4 will EXIT Alt+F will display FILE menu Alt+i will FIND the location for a node Alt+H will display HELP menu Note: If you're not in the entry box, the {i} will work without the {Alt} key. Page 2 You can access the System Menu by using the {F10} key and pressing {Enter}. Once in the menu: M will move the window (Use the {Directional Arrows} to select a new position) C or Alt+F4 will close the window T will toggle "Always on Top" Additionally, of course, you can move down to the desired choice using the {Directional Arrows} and then press {Enter}. Cut and Paste is not fully implemented in this version, but if you can copy a node from another window, you can use {Ctrl+V} to paste this node in the entry box and press {Enter} to locate. Mouse Operation Operating your CisNodes program using a mouse is just like working the keyboard except that you are to point at the desired Button, Entry Box, System Menu item or Program Menu item and click the left mouse button. To highlight the Entry Box for replacement of its contents, double-click the mouse button. Double-clicking the System Menu will exit the program. The right mouse button doesn't do anything at this time. INSTALLATION The Alpha and OmegaWare Setup Program The Setup Program is a utility designed to make installation easy. Users of CisNodes version 1.0 installing a newer version of CisNodes should delete the directory and its contents, as well as any group or icon created in association with previous version, prior to running the setup program. The setup program will copy files from a source to a destination drive and directory. It will also create a group and the icons automatically. Below are specific instructions necessary for your type of setup. Also, online Help is available in Setup. From Compressed File Your compressed file should be copied to a directory on the hard drive and decompressed. If necessary, refer to your compression/decompression manual for these instructions. Next, you may choose to copy all the files except the compressed file to a floppy disk, to make installation and re-installation easier. If installing from this copied disk, you can delete all the files in this directory and the directory itself, and follow "From Distribution Diskette" instructions in next section. If you have not copied these files to a floppy diskette, start up Windows and pick FILE|RUN from the Program Manager's menu. Type in the [fullpath] to the Setup Program. For instance, if you just unpacked the compressed file in a directory called C:\TEMP, you would type ["C:\TEMP\SETUP"] and press {Enter}. The program will then prompt you to: Page 3 a) Use the FROM Entry Box to enter the [path] where the source files exist. Example: C:\TEMP b) Use the TO Entry Box to enter the [path] to the destination directory where the files will reside, that is, where you would like to run this product from. (Note: The destination directory must not exist prior to running the Setup program.) Example: C:\ALPHA c) Choose OK upon receiving the "Complete" message to finalize setup procedure. From Distribution Diskette Start up Windows, insert the distribution diskette in your floppy drive, and pick FILE|RUN. Type in the [drive letter][": SETUP"]. For instance, if your distribution diskette is in drive A, you would type A:SETUP and press {Enter}. The program will then prompt you to: a) Use the FROM Entry Box to enter a [path] where the source files exist. Example: A: b) Use the TO Entry Box to enter the [path] to the destination directory where the files will reside, that is, where you would like to run this product from. (Note: The destination directory must not exist prior to running the Setup program.) Example: C:\ALPHA c) Choose OK upon receiving "Complete" message to finalize setup procedure. Manual Install If you have trouble using the Setup Program, you may choose to manually install CisNodes in one of the following manners. From Compressed File a) Your compressed file should be copied to a directory on the hard drive and decompressed. If necessary, refer to your compression/decompression manual for these instructions. b) Note that some of your unpacked files are still in a type of compressed form. These files are easily recognized because they end in an underscore. Use the utility EXPAND.EXE to decompress these files one at a time. The proper syntax for EXPAND.EXE is ["EXPAND"] [sourcefile.ext] [destinationfile.ext] {Enter} Example: EXPAND CISNODES.DA_ CISNODES.DAT {Enter} Refer to Appendix C for [sourcefile.ext] and [destinationfile.ext] names. After all files have been decompressed, you can delete the compressed versions of them from this directory. Example: DEL *.??_ {Enter} c) Start Windows, and create a group. To do this, pick FILE|NEW|PROGRAM GROUP, and type in ["Alpha and OmegaWare"] for Description. Note: You may prefer to use an existing group. d) Next, add an item to the group. Pick FILE|NEW|PROGRAM Page 4 ITEM and type in ["CisNodes ver 1.5b"] for Description. e) Highlight COMMAND LINE box and pick BROWSE to point to CISNODES.EXE for file. Or, type in [fullpath] to CISNODES.EXE. f) Pick CHANGE ICON and the icon will appear, pick OK. Pick OK again to save this item. From Distribution Diskette a) From the root directory on your hard drive, create a directory of your choice. Example: At the C:> type MD CISNODES {Enter}. This will create a directory called CISNODES on your C drive. Insert the distribution diskette in your floppy drive and copy all the files to the destination directory. Example: COPY A:\*.* C:\CISNODES {Enter}. This will copy all files from A drive to C:\CISNODES which is now located on your hard drive. Now change to the directory you have just created. Example: CD\CISNODES {Enter} b) Note that some of your unpacked files are still in a type of compressed form. These files are easily recognized because they end in an underscore. Use the utility EXPAND.EXE to decompress these files one at a time. The proper syntax for EXPAND.EXE is ["EXPAND"] [sourcefile.ext] [destinationfile.ext] {Enter} Example: EXPAND CISNODES.DA_ CISNODES.DAT {Enter} Refer to Appendix C for [sourcefile.ext] and [destinationfile.ext] names. After all files have been decompressed, you can delete the compressed versions of them from this directory. Example: DEL *.??_ {Enter} c) Start Windows, and create a group. To do this, pick FILE|NEW|PROGRAM GROUP, and type in ["Alpha and OmegaWare"] for Description. Note: You may prefer to use an existing group. d) Next, add an item to the group. Pick FILE|NEW|PROGRAM ITEM and type in ["CisNodes ver 1.5b"] for Description. e) Highlight COMMAND LINE box and pick BROWSE to point to CISNODES.EXE for file. Or, type in [fullpath] to CISNODES.EXE. f) Pick CHANGE ICON and the icon will appear, pick OK. Pick OK again to save this item. ACCESSORY PROGRAMS CNVERT.EXE From the DOS prompt use CNVERT.EXE to update the CISNODES.DAT file. This data file contains a list of all the three-letter abbreviations and their corresponding locations, posted by Compuserve. It is recommended that the file is updated every sixty days. In fact, a reminder window pops up as the program is entered when the update is due. To disable the Page 5 reminder for another sixty-day period, pick the NO button. To continue with CisNodes pick YES, or select HELP for the below instructions needed for running CNVERT.EXE. a) Log on CIS. Do not attempt capture at greater than 2400 baud as this results in a corrupted data file with most modems. b) Type ["GO CIS:LGN-30"] {Enter}. Turn CAPTURE mode on and capture the Node list from CIS. Turn CAPTURE off. c) Leave communications program. d) Go to directory where CisNodes program is located. Type ["CNVERT"] [filename] {Enter}. CNVERT will save the old data file as CISNODES.BAK. Your new data file is now ready to use. ERROR CONDITIONS Though every precaution has been taken to ensure that your CisNodes is a bug-free program, you may discover a bug that has eluded the author. If this unfortunate case should arise, it would be appreciated if you would report it so that it may be eliminated both for you and other CisNodes users.

FUTURE VERSIONS Page 7 The author invites all CisNodes users to communicate any comments, or suggestions for added features, and Alpha and OmegaWare will continue working to offer enhancements. You can reach Alpha and OmegaWare through E-Mail or by postal letter to: Andy Abercrombie [73530,1365] 24303 Audrey Warren, MI 48091 REGISTRATION Why Should I Register? Generally, ordering a registered version of any ShareWare program is beneficial in several ways. Firstly, registering your software supports ShareWare's efforts to offer quality software on a try-before-you-buy basis. Registering also supports software authors and encourages them to continue providing new or upgraded ShareWare products. Lastly, it is unlawful to continue to use a ShareWare product you may be enjoying, without registering, after the specified trial period. Registering CisNodes entitles you to receive a registered copy on a floppy diskette. The ShareWare notice and order form along with associated Help topics will be eliminated from the registered version, allowing for a smaller and faster program. Registered users will be prompted to enter their name to appear next to their own personal serial number. Registered users will also receive any upgrades at a discount of greater than 50%. How to Order It's simple! Just pick the YES button on the ShareWare Notice window and an order form will display. Complete the form and pick the OK button. (Note that online Help is available if needed.) Pick the OK button again to begin the printing process, making sure your printer is online. Please choose 180 x 180 resolution on your print setup window. If your printer cannot print 180 x 180 dpi, print the alternative ORDER.FRM. This file is located in your directory with the other program files.(For specific instructions on the alternative order form, refer to Appendix E.) If you do not have a printer, you may view the order form on your screen, and create a reasonable facsimile on your own, being sure to include all requested information. Submit your completed order form, along with payment by check or money order in U.S. dollars made payable to Andy Abercrombie, at the address indicated on your order form. APPENDIX A. Conventions Used in this Manual 1. Braces {} enclose the name of a key or keys located on your keyboard. Example: {Enter} means to press the Enter Page 8 key on your keyboard. 2. Brackets [] enclose a variable supplied by the user. Examples used in this manual: a. the number symbol # represents a digit. b. ext represents a file extension. c. path consists of a drive letter, colon, backslash, and a directory name, possibly followed by a backslash and sub-directory names to define a specific location. The path for CisNodes located on your C drive would be C:\CISNODES. d. fullpath usually, and in this manual, consists of the path ending with an exact file name. The fullpath for CISNODES.EXE, which is a runnable program, located in the directory C:\CISNODES would be C:\CISNODES\CISNODES.EXE. e. sourcefile.ext is the fullpath for an input file used in an application. Note: The path may be excluded if the application and the file are located in the same directory. Since this will probably be your situation, what you would type for manual.do_ would be MANUAL.DO_ f. destinationfile.ext is the fullpath for an output file used in an application. Note: The path may be excluded if the application and the file are located in the same directory. Since this will probably be your situation, what you would type for manual.doc would be MANUAL.DOC 3. Brackets surrounding Quotation Marks [""] enclose case- sensitive static text, which is text that is to be typed exactly as shown, whether in upper or lower case letters. Example: ["DEL"] means to type the letters D,E,and L. B. Software Types 1. Public Domain "Public domain" has a very specific legal meaning. It means that the creator of a work (in this case, a piece of software) who had legal ownership of that work, has given up ownership and dedicated the work "to the public domain". Once something is in the public domain, anyone can use it in any way they choose, and the author has no control over the use and cannot demand payment for it. If you find a program which the author has explicitly put into the public domain you are free to use it however you see fit, without paying for the right to use it. But use care -- due to the confusion over the meaning of the words, programs are often described by others as being "public domain" when in fact they are shareware or free, copyrighted software. To be sure a program is public domain you should look for an explicit statement from the author to that effect. Page 9 2. Copyrighted "Copyrighted" is the opposite of public domain. A copyrighted program is one where the author has asserted his or her legal right to control the program's use and distribution by placing the legally required copyright notices in the program and documentation. The law gives copyright owners broad rights to restrict how their work is distributed, and provides for penalties for those who violate these restrictions. When you find a program which is copyrighted you must use it in accordance with the copyright owner's restrictions on distribution and payment. Usually these are clearly stated in the program documentation. Maintaining a copyright does not necessarily imply charging a fee, so it is perfectly possible and legal to have copyrighted programs which are distributed free of charge. Such programs are sometimes termed "freeware", though this term was in fact trademarked by the late Andrew Flugelman and the legality of its use by others could be questioned. In any case, the fact that a program is free does not mean that it is in the public domain -- though this is a common confusion. 3. ShareWare "Shareware" is copyrighted software which is distributed by authors through bulletin boards, online services, disk vendors, and copies passed among friends. It is commercial software which you are allowed to try out before you pay for it. Shareware authors use a variety of licensing restrictions on their copyrighted works, but most authors who support their software require you to pay a "registration fee" -- the purchase price of the software -- if you continue to use the product after a trial period. Some authors indicate a specific trial period after which you must pay this fee; others leave the time period open and rely on you to judge when you have decided to use the program, and therefore should pay for it. Occasionally a shareware author requires registration but does not require payment -- this is so-called "$0 shareware". The shareware system and the continued availability of quality shareware products depend on your willingness to register and pay for the shareware you use. The registration fees you pay allow authors to support and continue to develop their products. As a software user you benefit from this system because you get to try the software and determine whether it meets your needs before you pay for it. Authors also benefit because we are able to get our products into your hands with little or no expense for advertising and promotion. As a result it is not unusual to find shareware products which rival retail software that Page 10 costs several times the amount of the shareware registration fee. C.
