BBS - BBS File List Generator (ver 1.8)
=============================
BBS uses the CONTENTS.TOC file in the root of the CD to generate standard
BBS file listings, quickly and accurately.
Syntax is: BBS {NEW|yymmdd} {DOS{WIN{MAC{OS2{W95}}}}}
where: NEW - lists only new files
yymmdd - specifies the earliest ZIP file date to report.
If ommitted, all files will be listed.
DOS - lists DOS files
WIN - lists Windows files
MAC - lists Macintosh files
OS2 - lists OS/2 files
W95 - lists Windows 95 files
The first time BBS is run it will create BBS.INI, which contains all of the
operating paramters used by the program. You can edit this file to suit your
requirements with any text editor.
