- ║█▓▒░ Introduction ░▒▓█║
- ╚══════════════════════╝
-
- What exactly is SL-FileLister...
-
- Like the name suggests, it is, in fact, a File Lister for
- Searchlight BBS. The same with all the other utilities I've
- written, I wrote this program to fulfill a need. I wanted a
- file list generator that would allow me to put in a header,
- a "comment" for certain directories, the ACTUAL byte size,
- and something to actually "Verify" that the files were
- or were not offline. I also wanted a seperate file containing
- all the NEW files...
-
- I kinda rushed through the DOC files, so if there are any
- spelling errors, grammar errors, or whatever, please excuse me.
-
-
-
- *********************************
- NOTICE: This will work with SearchLight version 2.25, and
- most likely 2.xx+
- *********************************
-
-
- SL-FileLister has the following features:
-
- *** Lists and sorts the files... You can specify either a
- minimum/maximum security level, a subboard .DIR file, or
- both.
-
- *** If extended descriptions are enabled, word wraps them and
- neatly mixes them as a continuation of the first line of the
- description.
-
- *** If enabled, shows the number of Downloads along with the
- description, similar to other BBS list programs for QBBS/RA.
-
- *** Displays the ACTUAL filesize in bytes from DOS... if the file
- is offline, displays "OFFLINE".
-
- *** Checks through DOS to see if the file is OFFLINE...
-
- *** Places a sysop-written Header file at the beginning of the
- List, if enabled.
-
- *** Has the capability of placing special header files for
- specially selected directories.
-
- *** Generates a special list of only "NEW" files in all directories.
-
-
- ╔════════════════╗
- ║█▓▒░ Set Up ░▒▓█║
- ╚════════════════╝
-
- *** Make a directory for SL-FileLister and unzip the contents of
- archive into the directory. The archive should contain the
- following files:
-
- SL-FLIST.DOC - The Documentation (yer readin' it!)
- ORDER.FRM - Registration order form
-
- SL-FLIST.EXE - SL-CallBack (The Program Itself)
- SL-FLIST.CFG - Sample Configuration file.. use this or
- make your own!
-
-
- *** Once this is done, use a text editor to edit the configuration
- file (or make your own). The following commands can be used:
-
-
- SysopName : Sysops name for registration purposes
- Registration : Registration key...
- NewDays : Number of days defining "New" files... if
- this command is not used, New files are NOT
- displayed (by a * next to the date)
- MinLevel : Minimum access level for scanning directories
- MaxLevel : Maximum access level for scanning directories
- ShowUploads : Shows the number of times each file was downloaded.
- Requires NO parameter
- ShortList Uses only the first line of the description. If this
- is not included, it defaults to the full description,
- word-wrapped. Requires NO parameter
- BBS Path The location of your FILEDIR.SL2... (*MUST*
- include the trailing backslash.. for example:
- D:\BBS\
- DIR file If specified, which subboard DIR file to generate
- the list from (eg: D:\BBS\MAIN.DIR)
- HeaderFile Path and Filename of the header file. This file
- is displayed before the actual list. Lets you put
- in an ad for your BBS, information about the list,
- Magic Filenames for FREQ'ing.. etc...
- Specialpath SPECIAL headers for a SPECIFIC file directory may
- be accomplished by creating a file named:
- [Directoryname].TRN in this path. Path must include
- the backspace (Example: D:\BBS\)
-
- MakeNewList Specifies the filename for a New File List.. if this
- is not used, no New File list will be created..
- ListName Specifies the path/filename for the finished Listing
-
-
-
- To place a command in the config file, type in the option, one
- per line. For example, to use the MakeNewList command:
-
- MakeNewList D:\FILES\UPLOADS\TRNLIST.NEW
-
- Don't worry about leaving blank lines, the program will just ignore
- them.
-
- *** If you want, create a special header file... (and place the
- appropriate entry in the configuration file). The header file
- consists of a simple text file which will be placed in front
- of the entire list.
-
- *** If you wish to have special headers for certain areas (to explain
- the contents of that particular directory, etc), use the SpecialPath
- command in the configuration file (eg. "SpecialPath D:\BBS\") and
- create a text file in that directory.
-
- Name the text file [Directoryname].TRN. For example, to put a
- header in the UPLOADS directory, create a file called UPLOADS.DIR
- You can have as many headers like this as you wish...

- Thats about it! We hope you enjoy the File Lister...Registration:

- it a few second delay at first... I didn't cripple the program in
- ANY way... see the file ORDER.FRM for ordering information...
