******************************* IconUpdater History file ******************************* 1.0 added many features to a basic door I had on my bbs so that other could use it. 1.10 Fixed the No graphics calls bug. Added the ability of individual user disabiling LogIn. Added 3 more user definable text lines in MainInfo.txt file. So noe at 5. DNInfo.txt still at 7 lines. 1.20 Fixed CTS detect, it NOW works! Also fixed the user defined key, it made the main menu jump to the download menu if the user defined key was NOT defined, (ie. the sysop left the last 4 lines of the config file blank). If you leave it blank, fine, if you define a key then that's fine too, because it works either way now. Also fix some other little things. Look for new & better updates in the future. Fixed the DSZ so that it will work on both Comm 1 & 2. 1.30 Fix a few more bugs & added RIP graphics support. (*note) that this program only supports com1 & 2 and no than a 14.4 modem. 1.3C SysOps were calling me and telling me that I forgot to include the ICSETUP.EXE file in my zip file. I here now. Sorry! 1.40 YES! No the Scan last time on Date function works. No you can have IconUpDater Default to scan and compare the last time on date (for the user) and the date you last updated you icons. See Sysop text for more info! You can now hit Return and/or "C" to continue to the BBS. 1.4B Now you have the option to have IconUpDater write to your Wildcat's activity log. Change a few things. And fixed a couple of bugs. 1.50 Now a keyed version. Now Reads WCNODEIC for Multi-Line BBS Wildcat software. Sysop now has the option to FORCE his Optional FILE on callers. Changed the DNICON.CFG file around. Added a "Re-loading BBS" when door is finished, so callers do not freakout while waiting for Wildcat to swap back in. 1.60 Added better KEY security. Added another definable menu option. Added the ability to limit access to various menu options. Changed the manin menu so that you can have 4 line of text in your MAININFO.TXT file. 1.6c Fixed some major bugs. Forced file and security level limiting were read in wrong. I think that's it. 1.6e Oops! For got to allow Local Logins with the Forced option set on #2, so that it did not lock in the sysop. That is NOW Fixed! Made some other minor changes while I was at it. Hopefully this should be it until a major upgrade. PLEASE let me know if you run across any problems. I can't make a great program without some input. 1.6f Fix a small bug. Did not release to WC HQ BBS. 1.6g Fix 2 more small bugs. I hope I got'em this time. Will be released. 1.70 Well I switch to a new internal modem and IconUpDater started dropping carrier on me when I hit "C". So I changed it to Hit Return. Now works fine. Please call me if you detect bugs. 1.8b The "b" means beta release. Well I was wrong, 1.70 was still dropping carrier with my new internal modem. So I went ahead an re-vamped IconUpDater. It now supports coms 1 thru 4 & IRQs 1 thru 15. Since I got this version working with my new internal modem and it was tested on the external SupraFax, it should work with any modem. This version should Fix all problems for those who have been experiencing problems. SO please give this program another try. See future text. 1.85 Fixed the Button thing when you do not define a menu option. Also added the ability for you to create your own Info RIP graphics screen. That file has to be "RIPINFO.RIP". 1.87 A few little Bug fixes. Major change on ICSETUP support Program. Totally re-wrote it, now you can edit and create DNICON.CFG with its easy-to-use menu driven setup. 1.88 IconUpDater was not recognizing single user names, like "Ryan", and it was erroring out. It would only take full names like "Ryan Andersen". This problem (bug) has been fixed. 2.00 MAJOR UPGRADE! This will probably bring some bugs...so let me know what you find. Fixed the problem with QModem Pro callers. Shouldn't send & print RIPscript, it should now be graphics. Changed MENU structure. You can now make you own menu's on the REGISTERED version; see SysOp.DOC for more info. Added a better Auto Scan Update... it uses the RIPscript RIP_FILE_QUERY. This will only work remotely with RIPterm or QMpro. It seems like it's working okay. Changed ICSETUP... but did not add any more lines. Single line users will not have to change their config file. But BIG change for the Multi line SysOps. IconUpDater read in DNICON.CFG differently for multi line. RUN ICSETUP.EXE and select #3 on the Config menu for more INFO! With this ICSETUP change comes the Multiline sysop's favorite, multi-config files, and in one dir, and IconUpDater knows which one to run, because it reads in %WCNODEID%. You'll understand once you run ICSETUP. It's easy. Clean alot of the code. Beware if a caller goes into IconUpdater then does a Auto Scan Icon UpDate, then come back to IconUpDater, and last, that caller drops carrier; IconUpDater MAY Re-boot your computer, depending on your memory cap. Heck I did so much to it, I can remember everything. Remember, just call me if oyu have questions or comments. Oh yea, the new file you see, ICFILE.EXE is my RIP_FILE_QUERY program, DO NOT worry about it though; IconUpDater takes care of it!! 9/20/93 2.01 Well thanks to a couple of Registered users, 2 bugs have been found and quickly fixed. Local Down no works. And the Overflow Errer #6 from when locked baudrates above 19200 were enter into DNICON.CFG are now fix. I also for got to included Documentation. I have now Documented all features in SYSOP.TXT. 9/21/93 2.02 Multi-Line BBS sysop could not log on locally because it was looking for DNICON#.CFG... so now I just look for the DNICON.CFG. Also made change to the way ICSETUP write it's multiple config files. If you are running multi node re-run ICSETUP!! and select "Y" for multi node and follow instructions. 9/21/93 2.10 This is it. I think I got all the bugs! I was leaving IconUpDater in memory while running ICFile. This was cause the [A]uto Icon Scan D/L to think Icon were not on the users drive, when they did really exist. Also added some print statements fot the SysOp on HOST end; they just notify the sysop of ICFILE processing fuctions. Also added 1 more config line to DNICON.CFG, which gives the SysOp the option of forcing [A]uto Icon Scan Download on the callers. 9/22/93 2.20 Added a [C]ontinue, [A]bort menu to ICFILE for users who need more than 20 icons after a file query. Added more processing text to ICFILE for the sysop. 9/22/93 2.30 Fix bug 2 little ICFILE bugs. Changed ICFILE Time wait function. 2.31 Fix Security level bug. Added a "User Online: " to ICFILE. Fixed Overflow problem in ICFILE. Increased FORCED.LOGs to handle upto 1500 users. Added a ERROR.LOG... Remember to delete this file if it gets to big. Changed the temp.cfg name. ICFILE now unzips your ALLICONS archive and reads them in alphabetically. 9/24/93 2.32 Tried making a 1 version for both Wildcat and other BBS.. Didn't work.. very well... 9/25/93 2.33 Still has some bugs. 2.34 Finally, one version for botth Wildcat and other BBS that can produce a 52 line Wildcat 3.x type DOOR.SYS file. DOOR.SYS conversion programs did not seen to work. Your BBS must be able to create a DOOR.SYS that put the proper Last time On date on line 17. You can try converting one. If it works please let me know. Changed some on the screens in ICFILE. Also added a choice to download the ALL ICONS zip file if the number of icons not found is greater 20. If the BBS software is Wildcat and the caller aborts, ICFILE will return to IconUpDater, all other option combinations - ICFILE will return to the BBS. 9/26/93 2.35 In my ICFILE.EXE program I turn on a system timer, and I forgot to turn it back off before exiting the program. This was causing some systems to crash. I now turn it off before exiting. 9/28/93 2.40 Added ICMAINT.EXE! This file will automatically update your ALLICONS.ZIP (ARJ) file and your DNICON.CFG. Meaning NO SysOp maintenance! Also removed "Path to UpDated Icons". There was no need for it, now that ICFILE is working. So that config line is now an "ANSI caller" Yea or No switch. DO SEE SYSOP.TXT for more info on these new features... also RE-RUN ICSETUP, for safety. This should do it for awhile... A Mainrtenance free, file pushing, Icon Scanning, RIP'n awesome door!!! 9/30/93
