- This little program is a utility for taking the text files created when
- you so a "Save As" while displaying a list of conferences. I save these
- lists all the time when I am trying to sync up my gateways, and just to
- be able to send someone a list of conferences.
-
- The problem with these lists is that there is a whole bunch of text to
- the right of the conference name that I don't care about, and doesn't
- belong in a conference list that I am trying to put in a message or
- compare with another one.
-
- This utility fixes this problem. It goes through the conference list
- text file and creates a list of the confereces without the stuff that
- you do not need. It features a split window so that you can see the
- input text and the output text at the same time.
-
- The output text field is editable so you can copy conference names for
- pasting into what ever you want.
-
- EXAMPLE OF USE:
- You log onto the board you gate with as the gateway. You look through
- the "Self Serve" folder and set up a few more conferences for yourself.
- You use the "Save as Text" feature and log off. You open the Conference
- List Fixer and create a conference list. Now you can save the new list
- to a text file, or use the list in the program. If you now go an create
- new conference on your board to match the ones you just put on the
- gateway desktop, you can copy and paste the names right into the "Get
- Info" form in FirstClass. That way, you never get a spelling mismatch on
- gated conferecnes.
