- │▓▓▓▓▓ Setup ▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓│

-
- Setting up and Configuring SNBest is simple. You may run SNBest
- from your RA directory, or you may put it in another directory by
- itself, or with other utilities. When you run SNBest for the first
- time, it will not find its config file, SNBEST.CFG, and will enter
- configuration mode. If ant any time you wish to modify the
- configuration, simply run SNBEST /C to enter configuration mode.
-
- When configuring SNBest, you will have 5 Choices from the main
- menu:
-
- A) Maximum Users To Rank
-
- B) Maximum Security Level
-
- C) Generate Which Reports
-
- D) Report Colors And Prompts
-
- X) Exit
-
-
- Whenever you Exit, you will be asked if you wish to update the
- configuration file. Simply hit Y to update it, or N to abort saving
- changes.
-
- Maximum Users To Rank
- ---------------------
- This is where you choose the number of elements in your bulletins.
- You may create bulletins for as many as the Top 100 Users, or Areas.
- The minimum number you may enter is 3, and the maximum is 100.
-
- Maximum Security Level
- ----------------------
- This allows you to hide certain Message and File areas from
- appearing in your bulletins. A value of 0 here means ALL file
- and message areas are allowed to be displayed. You may set this
- for example, to 100, and only file and message areas with LIST or
- READ security of 100 and less will be ranked in the bulletins.
-
- Generate Which Reports
- ----------------------
- Here is where you actually pick which Bulletins you would like
- SNBest to create. Also on this menu, you may choose to have SNBest
- merge ALL bulletins into one bulletin called SNB_ALL If you choose
- this option, you may also tell SNBest to Keep, or Not Keep the
- individual bulletins. You may also tell SNBest to add a ClearScreen
- to the top of each report.
-
- Report Colors and Prompts
- -------------------------
- This will display a sample bulletin, and allow you to toggle the
- colors used in the ANSI bulletins. You may also add a shadow to the
- bulletins here if you like. You may also define a PAUSE Prompt, which
- will be added to the End of each bulletin, along with a ^A to force
- RemoteAccess to wait for the user to hit Enter. If this prompt is
- left blank, then no Pause Prompt is appended to the bulletins.

- Simply call SNBest.Exe from your BBS Batch file. SNBest will read
- its config file from the same directory where SNBest.Exe is located,
- and will read the RA config file, CONFIG.RA, from the CURRENT directory,
- or if it is not found there then from the directory pointed to by the
- RA Environment Variable.
-
- SNBest will create its output files in the RA TextFiles directory as
- defined in Config.Ra
-
- SNBest creates an ANSII and an ASCII file for each bulletin.
-
- Thats it, its simple...
-
- If you experience any problems with this, or any other SNSoft
- software product, please contact us, and we will do our best to
- resolve your problems.
