"WOW! READ the DOCS? ...what a radical concept!"
--[Installation]-------------------------------------------------------------
Lets keep it simple:
1/ run install.bat
2/ install the pager in the CMD.LST under the O command. If you don't know
how, read a doc of another ppe, coz i'm tired of always writing this
basic shit.
3/ edit the .CFG for the emergency password etc...
take a look at the .SNG file to add more songs:)
voila...
WARNING! Always test each song you install in the .SNG file to make sure
your system doesn't hang.
--[COD-A-JOKE]--------------------------------------------------------------
I was bothered by the tought of not being able to show a progress bar to the
user while paging the sysop. You can't do thgat because the ppe is then
shelled to the module player and i can't do anything till the shell ends. I
could make the players TSR's(!) but then the computer is likely to trash
'nd crash... But i suddenly got a 'vision' :) ; why not displaying a joke
that the user can read while he's paging the sysdude(tte).
If ever you want to add jokes, add them exactly as the other jokes, and
make sure [END] is at the end of the file, and the number on line 1 is
updated(it contains the number of jokes in the file).
The joke data file is language aware.
(!) TSR = (T)rash (S)ystem (R)andomly
--[Info on the MUSiC BiT]---------------------------------------------------
Well, i geuss not many of you people are interested in this part, but i'm
writing it anyway. This is the first PPE i coded that works with an .EXE.
I had to code that .EXE using a GERMAN pascal, and a GERMAN helpfile. Con-
sidering i'm a belgian and i speak DUTCH, AND i had never coded before
in any other language then PPL i think the result is quite good;) Thanks
to JMJ for helping me out sometimes. (i got the idea for coding this shit
after seeing his 'Combadge Pager', which is one the few bbs add-ons
that were still better on ProBoard then on Pcboard... till now;)
About the players:
It plays HSC flawlessly:), and MOD files with 15 or 31 instruments and 4, 6
or 8 channels, but each sample should be smaller than 62 Ko. It recognizes
almost all effects except: E3,E4,E5,E8,E7 and EF. On the other hand, it uses
8 octaves like MOD files tracked with Scream Tracker 3.
If the player can't play a certain song, you can be sure its too 'heavy' for
the player;) Be sure to have your sound card settings in your autoexec.bat.
Example for my SB:
SET BLASTER=A 220 I7 D1 T3
It doesn't work on XT and 286 based PCs. It supports the following sound
devices:
- the internal speaker (rather good sound)
- a DAC (digital to analog convertor) on a parallel port
- a adlib sound board
- a Sound Blaster (SB, SB pro and SB16) in mono or stereo but only 8 bits
- a Gravis UltraSound card
Voila. I do not garantee that the .EXE will work on your system.
While i was coding this pager, THE CHAOT from LUXEMBURG made some other
players for the pager: a S3M, VOC, and CD player. So many thanks to him!
CH_S3M12.EXE Autodetects the SB (only SB will work).
The 'MUTE' feature is turned on and off with the '-' and '+'
The S3M and VOC player are in the zip: VOC&S3M.ZIP. Test them before
installing some S3M/VOCs in the .SNG file!
Look in COD-RP10.SNG for more info on how to install a Audio-CD song.
