- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- DESCRIPTION: JestBBS is a utility for bulletin board SysOps who want
- to display a joke for their users at logon/logoff/or as a bulletin.
- JestBBS is NOT a door. It is to be run in one of the following batch
- files: BETWEEN.BAT, GOODBYE.BAT, HELLO.BAT, $$LOGOFF.BAT, LOGON.BAT, etc.
- (Read your BBS software's documentation to find out which batch file
- you should use. TriBBS uses BETWEEN.BAT.)
- !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NOW SUPPORTS RIP GRAPHICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- I hope the graphics get better...I'm not a very good artist, though...
- -------------------------------------------------
- GETTING JESTBBS STARTED:
- * First of all, you'll need to copy JestBBS (and all supporting files)
- to the directory you wish to run it from.
- * Second, you'll need to run SETUP.EXE to configure JestBBS to your specific
- needs. SETUP will coax you along, setting things up...
- * Add the following lines to the batch file (from above) that corresponds
- with your system:
- CD\PathToWhereYouPutJestBBS
- JestBBS
- CD\PathToWhereeverYouNeedToGoFromHere
- * Read your DOS manual for information on batch files and your BBS software's
- documentation for the specifics of the batch file you have to create.
- That's it!
- -------------------------------------------------
- SHAREWARE:
- * Many people don't understand the concept of Shareware. It's not a
- type of software, it's a marketing method that allows you to try a
- program before you decide to buy it. If you don't like it, you delete
- it and pay nothing. If you choose to continue using the software, you
- are required to pay the author's modest registration fee.
- -------------------------------------------------
- REGISTRATION BENEFITS:
- * The latest version of JestBBS.
- * MORE JOKES!!! (I add new jokes to Jokes.Dat all the time.)
- * Printed documentation.
- * You lose that feeling of guilt that you get everytime you run the
- program and think of all the starving Shareware programmers in the
- world. Hey, most of us aren't rich...(I'm not, anyway...)
