     The following commands are available from this screen:

          <CR>Redisplay screen
          (D)elete base (I)nsert base
          (M)odify base (P)osition base
          (Q)uit        (T)oggle display format

          <CR>Redisplay screen -- Redisplays the listing of file bases.

          (D)elete -- Used to remove a file base.

          (I)nsert -- Used to insert another file board in your file
               system.  It will prompt you with "File base to insert before
               (1-xx)?", with "xx" being the highest base currently.

          (M)odify -- Allows changes to be made to the file base.

          (P)osition -- Moves the file boards around in position.

          (T)oggle -- Toggles the file board editor between display modes.

          (Q)uit -- Exits the file base editor.

     When you select the (M)odify command, you will be asked which base you
     want to modify.  After you choose the base, a screen like the following
     is displayed.

          1    Allows you to rename the current file base.  It stores the
               name as ASCII text, with a maximum of 40 characters (less if
               MCI colors are used, which take up 2 characters each).

          2    Allows you to alter the directory filename, which stores the
               information on each file in the file base (description, file
               points, date uploaded, length, etc.).

          3    Allows you to reconfigure the path to which your files are
               uploaded and downloaded to/from.

          4    This command sets the ACS settings that the user must satisfy
               to have access to enter the file base.

          5    This command sets the ACS settings that the user must satisfy
               in order to download and upload to the file base.

          6    This is the maximum number of files allowable in a file
               board.  If a user tries to upload a file when the maximum
               number of files is achieved, the BBS will not allow the
               transfer.

          7    This options sets a password that each time a user tries to
               access the file board, they must enter the correct password
               to enter it.

          8    This enables file bases to be set up with different
               compression types and comments as defined in the archive
               configuration.  (Default is ZIP and the first comment file.)

          [    Goes to the previous file base.

          ]    Goes to the next file base.

          F    Displays the first file base.

          J    Displays the specified file base.

          L    Displays the last file base.

          Q    Exits the file base editor.

         Flags -- Six flags are present for toggling:

                    N - No ratio checking
                    U - File base is unhidden
                    C - Specifies if the file base is on a CD-ROM
                    I - *.DIR file in DLPATH
                    G - Automatically insert GIFspecs on *.GIF files
                    S - Shows uploader name in the file listings

        They are toggled with the following commands:

          N    Sets the file base to not have UL/DL ratio or file points checks.

          U    If active, it will display a file base in an area listing
               regardless of whether or not the user has access to that base.  If the user lacks access, it will show in the

          C    This feature toggles whether of not the file base is kept on
               a CD-ROM or not.  If toggled on, it will disallow the file
               base to be newscanned. (Set the Upload ACS to s300 to not
               allow uploads from anyone (including you)).

          I    If toggled on, the *.DIR file for the particular file base will
               be stored in the download path instead of the DATA directory.

          G    This flag is used for directories containing GIF pictures,
               and active, the BBS will insert in the description the size and
               color information about the file.
               It is written in the following format:

                    (Width,Height,# of colors)

                Width and Height are in pixels.
