░▒▓█ Message Menu Commands █▓▒░
Q. People say that there can be more than 250 message and file areas, how?
A. If and when you do need more areas than 250 areas, you go into the
RACONFIG under Manager, go over to the File Areas, and then hit PGDN
to you reach 250, then all you do is hit the INS key, and 1 more area
will be added, you do the same with the message areas.
Q. I just switched to RA 2.01, and my message base doesnt allow me to
read new messages.
A. Try to check your batch file that runs your maintence, look for the
RAMSG option in there, if you just switched,it should appear like this:
RAMSG -P
RAMSG -L
RAMSG -I
or something similiar, what is wrong here is, RA 2.00, doesnt allow the
-P, -L, -I options anymore, now you MUST spell out the option what you
would like RAMSG to do.
For Example:
ramsg link -clean -hudson
ramsg pack -purge -delete -recover -renumber -overwrite -link
<these are what I use, you may choose to use different options>
Q. How do I send mail to EVERY USER? <mass mail> {+} Registered Command
A. This is not to hard of a task. MAKE SURE THAT THE GROUP MAIL IS SET
TO SYSOP LEVEL, or every user will send mass mail to everyuser, once
they find how to do it!
Area 15 - ■ Sysop's Mass Mail ■
From: Eric Staufer (or your name)
To: @all
Subject: <whatever>
Then just enter the message.
When it asks you for a a Return Receipt, put (N)o. Or you will add
on a good size more mail. I have roughly 396 users (as of 12/11/93)
and I had to send this 4k message to everyone, it ended up for me
to use around 1.3 megs to send all the mail out! Imagine if you
requested a return receipt!

Q. How do I setup a JAM Message base with RA 2.0x?
A. JAM Message Bases are not that difficult to setup, here is an
example of one of my JAM Message Bases:

╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛
* Notice the Area type -- JAM
and
* Notice the JAMbase -- c:\ra\msgbase\jam\rasupp
The JAMbase asks you to state a path and a base filename of the JAM
files.. Such as for this message base RA SUPPORT, all of the files
for this message base will be named RASUPP.*
These files will be created for this area:
RASUPP JHR 29257 02-12-94 9:02a
RASUPP JDT 71422 02-12-94 12:01a
RASUPP JDX 888 02-12-94 12:01a
RASUPP JLR 16 02-12-94 12:01a
Just remember when you DO fill out the JAMbase do NOT state
a file extension !
Q. How do I setup FastEcho with a JAM Message Base?
A. With the example above, I will show you how to setup one (1) JAM
message base with FastEcho.

* The STORAGE is JAM ..
* The PATH is the path to the base filename of your JAM files for that
|-- specific message area, which in this area would be RASUPP.
|
|-> (Remember that in the example above this one, the base filename for
this messagebase is RASUPP, so make sure they both match).
This works for me, and the echo tosses fine, and I can reply just fine.
Q. What are the RAMSG parameters to link, purge, etc ... for the JAM
Message Bases?
A. The ones listed below is what I use, and it works fine for me.
ramsg link -clean
ramsg pack -jam -purge -delete -recover -renumber -overwrite -link

░▒▓█ File Area Commands █▓▒░
Q. I just upgraded from 1.11 to 2.0x, and how do I get uploads to work?
A. Simple, you must first go into the menu manager in the RACONFIG, find
your upload option and then change the optional data from the path to
the area number, in which you have the New Upload area.
1.11> Optional Data: d:\uploads
2.0x> Optional Data: 11
Q. People say that there can be more than 250 message and file areas, how?
A. If and when you do need more areas than 250 areas, you go into the
RACONFIG under Manager, go over to the File Areas, and then hit PGDN
to you reach 250, then all you do is hit the INS key, and 1 more area
will be added, you do the same with the message areas.
Q. How do I install a CD-ROM disc, that does have Files.BBS?
A. First, you must make areas in the RACONFIG, that match the number of
areas you have on your CD. For Example,if you were installing Night Owl
v9.0, they have areas on the disc like 001a - 052a or something close,
(make sure you know what area 001a is, like Games A-Z, or something.
You should set your areas to like this.

**Note** Please make sure that you change the Name of the Area, Drive Letter,
D/L security, List Security, and U/L security to suit your needs.
CD-ROM has to be set for YES, and the NEW has to be set for NO,
if set to yes, it would search this area in the NEW FILES SEARCH
Q. How do I import descriptions from the CD to the file manager?
A. Well, seeing how you should have already setup all the CD file areas,
you should now run GENFBASE, be sure that you remember the area numbers
that begin with your CD areas and the area that ends them.
+++ I advise that you backup your TXT, HDR, and IDX, directory before
you start this, you might mess it up and some words might be missing,
from the descriptions. +++ It will ask:
Start at area#: xxx <put in the area number that begins with
your CD files>
End at area#: xxx <put in the area number that ends with
your CD files>
Then it will ask about download counters.. put in NO.
Then it will ask about LF/CRs or something... check your Files.BBS
on the CD, to see whether or not if it has mulitple descriptions,
if it only has 1 line description (ie Monster Disc II), put in NO.
but if it does have mulitple descriptions (ie Night Owl vx.0) put in
YES.
If it asks about something having to do with indentation with the
Files.BBS, leave it at the default, 0.
+++ like I said, make a backup of the TXT, HDR and IDX dir, before you
go on with this thing. +++
Q. I just switched from RA 1.11 to RA 2.0x, and this RAFILE thing is
sorta screwey to me.. how do I make it generate a newfiles list,
a master list, and main board files (this is if you have CD-ROM areas)
? What is this /B option, the /D option, and the *.LST files used in
the RAFILE FILELIST command?
A. Here are my examples, the ones I use, and I organized it show I'll
show you what each one does.
rafile filelist d:\ra\files\concess\master.txt /Brafile.ban
╘══ path plus file name. ╘═ banner to make appear
before the list.
rafile filelist d:\ra\files\concess\concess.txt /Brafile.ban @CONCESS.LST
╘══ path plus file name. ╘═ Banner ╘═ which
area I want
to be shown
on the list
rafile filelist d:\ra\files\concess\newfiles.txt /Brafile.ban /D7
╘══ path plus file name. ╘═ Banner ╘═ Newfiles
in 7 days.
you can change
(How CONCESS.LST reads: the 7 to any
number.
1-39
1-39 are the file areas that I want included on one of the lists that
I generated. Change it to anything that you want it to be.
The /Dx number shows the newfiles in how many days (x=days) (optional)
The /Bxxxx.xxx option gives you the option if you want a banner file
in the filelist, you do not have to use this if you decide not too
(optional).
RAFILE FILELIST
This is required, of course to make it run the filelist program.
^^^^^^^^
d:\ra\files\concess\newfiles.txt
The path of course, is required, please change to suit your needs.
^^^^^^^^
The @xxxxxxx.xxx option, lets you have which areas in the list that you
want to have or not. The @ is required beforehand. (optional)
Q. How do I enable the (T)agging prompt on the Keyword Search and the
Filename search commands?
A. Simple, just add in the Optional Data line for these commands a
/T parameter, this will fix this up for you.

░▒▓█ Language Editor/Control Codes █▓▒░
Q. People say that I can change colors in the RACONFIG Language Prompts
I have always wanted to change a particlar word/phrase or letter, how?
A. This is not difficult at all. When you are in the Language Editor,
go find your prompt that you want to edit. Once you find it, you have
many choices to turn the letters a different color. Here is the color
codes that RA can support <taken from the RA.DOC>.
Background Normal
Color Foreground
-------------|-------------------
Black 0
Blue 1
Green 2
Cyan 3
Red 4
Magneta 5
Brown 6
Gray 7
Foregound Color
Color #
--------------|--------------------
Black 0
Blue 1
Green 2
Cyan 3
Red 4
Magneta 5
Brown 6
Gray 7
Dark Gray 8
Light Blue 9
Light Green A
Light Cyan B
Light Red C
Light Magneta D
Yellow E
White F
For Example:
--> K[0A - Green Foreground on a Black background
|-> K[3C - Red Foreground on a Cyan background
|
**NOTE** to make a the K, do have to do this in the Language Editor press
| Ctrl-P (the cursor should flash), then press Ctrl-K, a White K
| should appear in the space where you put it.
|
| Here is an example of a text being edited:
|
| Normal Text Line: Enter your current password
|---> Colorized Text: Enter your K[0Acurrent password
This would make the CURRENT PASSWORD change to green.
Q. How do I display a textfile immediately after the other text file
with the new control code? {+} Registered Command Only.
A. Here is my WELCOME.ASC screen for my bbs. Notice the last line below
doubled line. The K!WELCOME3|

K!WELCOME3|
The K!WELCOME| will automatically display the text file Welcome3.xxx
after the user hits Enter (notice the , meaning the user has to hit
enter).
The will work with any textfile. ==AND== in the Language Editor!
The best textfile to use this feature, which I think, is the file
ONCEONLY.xxx if you want to display more for the user to see only
one time, use it on this. It works nicely.
Q. How do I put a text file as the prompt in the language editor?
A. Just add the K!filename| option in there, make sure that you
have the .ANS/.ASC/.RIP/.AVT made (not everyone has RIP and AVT
on their bbs). For instance:
The language prompt is:
Autologoff in 10 secs; press "!" to disconnect or "S" to remain online.
Instead of that Autologoff message, you can do this, like what I have
done:
K!autolog|
Which would display the textfile (ANS/ASC/AVT/RIP): it appears like this:
