Installation: The PPE can be installed in valid desired PPE call
locations, such as: the text display files SCRIPT0, or
in PCBTEXT locations 192 or 166.
Usage:
1. When the PPE executes, it generates two text display bulletins,
one called ACALL and the other called ASTAT, both located in
the same directory as the PPE file. The files can then be called
as an INTRO file, a regular bulletin file, or any other text
display file means. (The files can also be limited to a certain
security specific level such as: ACALL20 or ASTAT10). (added
in v2.03 is option to create new display files everyday with a
third and fourth file called YCALL and YSTAT being generated
containing previous days info--line 32 of CFG file must be set
to 1 for this option).
2. The PPE itself can be placed in any location desired as long
as the full path is entered in the callout.
3. I recommend placing the PPE in PCBTEXT location 192 and call
such as: !C:\PCB\PPE\BOTHALL.PPE (To do this, run program
MKPCBTEXT.EXE, enter name of file such as PCBTEXT, select
F3, enter 192, then enter the PPE call.
4. The program creates two .TMP files which it uses to generate the
PCBoard color coded bulletin. They can be edited if necessary.
5. The ASTAT bulletin requires that the PCBoard User Statistics TPA
be installed to acquire the additional statistic information.
Registration: NONE!! There is no registration fee. Basic use of the PPE
is FREE!!!
However, if you feel compelled that my work is worth
compensation, I will accept all offers. Thank You!
If you want to remove the UNREGISTERED stamp, call my BBS
for the FREE registration key (904-757-7878). I'm just
curious how many people really use the PPE. The registration
key is listed on the NEWS screen (just type in NEWS or NE
at the command prompt). Then enter the key value on line
31 of the CFG file. Or you can obtain the key by mail
using the REGISTER.FRM mailer.
Also, if you would like to provide suggestions for
improvement to the PPE, bug reports, or just a note
of thanks or hello, please forward those as well. See
below for my mailing address and BBS number. Additionally,
I frequently browse the RIME Sysop and PCBoard conferences,
although contacting me there is not as reliable because
sometimes I get very busy (SBGONLINE RIME #5561).
Updates: The latest version of the PPE program can be obtained from
my BBS: SBG Online! BBS (904) 757-7878. If you have any
comments or suggestions for improvement, you can leave them
there also. The file will be found in directory #1 as a
FREE/NOTIME file. The BBS runs PCBoard 15 at 28800v.fc.
Source If you desire a diskette containing the PPL source code so
Code: you can modify it for your own use, the cost is $15 US. I
accept cash, money order, VISA or Mastercard. You can place
an order by mail at: A. Segura, P.O. Box 1089, Sterling,
VA, 20167-1089.
As another option, for $25, you can subscribe to the PPE
conference on my BBS. The conference will always contain
the latest version of the source code for ALLCALL, CALLBLOC,
CALLCHK, VULGARID and several other PPEs for immediate
downloading. The subscription period lasts one year. We
also have the latest version of the PIER Shareware CDROM
always online. You can even subscribe online with your
