This is a utility for BATCH uploading:

Files included in this archive include:

TAGFILE.EXE : Main control program.
DIRN.EXE    : File Tagging utility called by TAGFILE.EXE.  This may be run
              independantly of TAGFILE.EXE
DGS.DEF     : Sample configuration file.
TAGFILE.TXT : This document.
READ.ME     : Document to contain future enhancements so you don't have to
              Read this everytime there is an enhancement.
ID.BAT      : Batch file for processing DIZ ( prepared descriptions ) files.

1.) Edit DGS.DEF to match your system.  Be sure the executable files are
    either in your path or your current subdirectory. ( Executable files
    called by this program are DSZ.COM, HSLINK.EXE, and DIRN.EXE ).


 Line 1: test.lst      <- Name of file listing tagged files (No Path needed);
 Line 2: handshake both sz <- DSZ Command line (Zmodem);
 Line 3: sb <- DSZ Command line (Ymodem-g);
 Line 4: handshake both sb -k  <- Ymodem command line.
 Line 5: -@ -NV -UC:\BOYAN\DL -S2048 <- HS/Link parameters.
 Line 6: /I BIMOD1.LOG <- Bimodem Parameters
 Line 6: c:\qed\q.exe  <- Path to your favorite text editor;
 Line 7: 2             <- Communications port you COMM program uses.
 Line 8: 19200         <- Communications port speed
 Line 9: COM           <- If using DSZ.COM enter COM here. If using EXE
                          enter EXE.  If Blank TAGFILE defaults to DSZ.COM
 Line10: DESC.SDI      <- Name of file description to be added to ZIP file.
                          If BLANK  TAGFILE defaults to FILE_ID.DIZ

See sample DGS.DEF file included here.

2.) To run this utility setup a macro in your communications program;

I set mine up in Boyan for the "F9" key. To do this in Boyan, load
BOYAN.COM.  Enter "ALT-C" to configure boyan.  When the configuration
menu shows enter "M" for macros.  Pick the key you want to use from
the menu selections and then enter the prompt as follows:
\DC[TAGFILE]

Make sure DGS.DEF and DIRN.EXE are in the subdirectory you load
TAGFILE.EXE in.  This utility is not nearly as sophisticated as Byte
Brothers POWRN nor is it intended to compete with them.  This is
intended to simplify your batch uploading.  ALSO, this is free.

The commands on the menu are pretty much self explanitory.
The "U" will send the upload command to the host system along with
the file names of the tagged files.  Once the command is sent you
will be returned to your communications package in case you haven't
told your favorite BBS which protocol you want to use.  Once you have
done so return to tagfile and press the upload key for the protocol
you wish to use.


Once you have tagged some files for uploading, dial your favorite BBS
and have a good time transferring files.  Be sure to upload quality files.
This makes your sysop infinitely happy.
