*************************************************************************** * Last Callers PPE 0.71 written by Paul N. Naylor * *************************************************************************** INSTALLATION ** The follwing instructions assume that you are using C:\pcb as your PCBoard path. If your is different, make the appropriate substutions. (For example if you are on a network and your drive letter is 'Z' then your path would be z:\pcb and you would install the files in z:\pcb\ppe\lc I am still working on this progam. I will continue to improve it and work out the bugs. Please check Salt Air BBS for new updates. **** 1. Create a subdirectory for the Last Caller files. For example c:\pcb\ppe\lc 2. Put all files from LC.ZIP into this subdirectory. 4. Put !C:\pcb\ppe\lc\lc.ppe (assuming the default directory) into either your logon script file or in security logon files. You may also put it in a prompt in PCBTEXT. The advantage to putting it in security files is that you can then prevent it from logging sysop activity. Future versions will have the ability to configure that. 5. Edit CMD.LST (using PCBSETUP) and add the command "LC" and define it as C:\pcb\ppe\lc\lc01.ppe 6. Edit the LC.HDR, LC.H02, LC.H03 to look how you want them to look. It is what gets displayed before the caller list. 7. Edit the LC.CFG file. The first line is just a number defining how many callers to list at logon. The second line defines how the list will look. It simply uses PC-Board @codes to display the fields you want. 8. Edit the LC.TRL file to look how you want. It is what is displayed after the caller list. 9. Create a BLT file with "!c:\pcb\ppe\lc\lc02.ppe" if you want a bulletin of todays callers. 10. Create a BLT file with "!c:\pcb\ppe\lc\lc03.ppe" if you want a bulletin of yesterdays callers. 11. Log-on your BBS and see what happens. Every time a user logs on, it should display the list. Also, you can type "LC" at the main prompt to give you a listing anytime you are on line. Try the BLT functions to make sure they work. 12. The files "LC.TDY, LC.YDY, LC.LOG, LC.TXT" must always exist. If you system crashes and for some reason some of these files do not exist, run RESET.EXE and it will create them. 13. After registration, you will get the "HIST" command that will let you search for log on information for beyond the last callers. Registration will remove the delay and "unregistered" message. 14. If you have any questions, suggestions or criticism please write a message to me on Share City BBS, Salt Air BBS, or call me at 801-466-8797. 15. If you find the utility useful, please make a small contribution. I am asking $10.00. You may mail me a check, or call me with Credit Card info. I will attach a copy of the registered version to a message so you can download it and get running fast. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul Naylor PO Box 25232 Salt Lake City, UT 84125-0232 Voice: (801) 466-8797 Fax: (801) 487-4936 Share City BBS: (801) 280-8443 Compuserve: 71550,632 Rime: ->SHARECITY Internet: paul.naylor@saltair.com ============================================================================
