- What is Alias It! ?
- ===================
-
- Alias It! is a collection of utilities which can be used with SL to
- allow your Users to use ALIAS names on your BBS. There are 3 utilities
- which make up the Alias It! Package:
-
- SLAM
- RENAME
- SORTDATA
-
-
- SLAM:
- -----
-
- SLAM allows the NEW user to ADD their name/alias automatically to the
- SL User and Alias.Def files.
- In addition, SLAM sends the sysop a private message outlining the fact
- the user has chosen to use an Alias name, and provides the corresponding REAL name.
-
-
- RENAME:
- -------
-
- RENAME utilizes the data files created by SLAM (Or by the sysop MANUALLY)
- to RENAME Alias Names to Real Names (On Message Export) and Real Names to
- Alias Names (On Message Import). It is extremely efficient and allows
- the sysop to specify directories to process via another data file.
-
-
- SORTDATA:
- ---------
-
- SORTDATA is a simple SORT program which sorts the ALIAS.DEF data file
- created by SL/SLAM. This makes it much easier for the Sysop to EDIT this
- file if the need arises, as well, it makes the files very readable and easy to scan.
-
-
- Within the ALIASIT3.ARJ package are the respective utilities in
- archived format. This is done so that the WAHTSNEW file for
- each respective utility can remain intact and can be read as needed.
-
- For more information on a specific utility/Setup/Installation, please
- refer to the .DOC file for the respective utility.
