Installation of this PPE is incredibly easy... one of the easiest to config
as far as matrix PPEs go... here's what to do:
add this line to your welcome display: !D:\PCB\PPE\MATRIX\MATRIX.PPE
(where D:\PCB\PPE is the path to the PPE)
You are now ready to go, but it is in your best interest to configure the
PPE to your taste...

WELCOME SCREEN RANDOMIZING:
───────────────────────────
1. Move your WELCOME files to the directory where the matrix PPE resides.
2. You will want to add the number of ansi screens that you wish to rotate
in the MATRIX.CFG file
3. Make sure they are named like this: WELCOME.ANS <--- FIRST ANSI
WELCOME.AN2 <--- SECOND ANSI
This PPE will support up to 10 random ansis (WELCOME.ANS - WELCOME.AN9)
DISCLAIMER USAGE:
─────────────────
1. Enable the disclaimer feature by in the MATRIX.CFG by selecting YES to
the appropriate line
2. Modify the Disclaimer Lines to your taste in the STRINGS.CFG file
(the commands supported by the disclaimer are the YES/NO answer, and
V to review the disclaimer)
SYSTEM/NEW USER PASSWORD USAGE:
───────────────────────────────
1. Decide which (or both) you wish to use and enable them in the config
file...
2. Select what passwords each should be
3. Determine which SL a user must have before receiving the system pw
DOS/UNIX MATRIX SELECTION:
──────────────────────────
1. Decide which matrix will be used in the config file by entering
D for DOS MATRIX, or U for UNIX MATRIX
2. Configure the dos/unix prompts to suit your tastes...
KEYS TO CONFIGURATION:
──────────────────────
- As with any PPE, make sure that you enter the config information on the
proper line... PCB @X codes are acceptable at any prompt
- Make sure items in the MATRIX.CFG file are entered in uppercase
- Make sure YES/NO responses are entered with a YES or NO

This program is not in any way guaranteed to do anything other than take up
disk space... I nor any distributor are responsible for any damages incurred
by the use or misuse of this program...
A Matrix Chat/Page feature was left out, as I feel most sysops think this
is annoying and useless. I left out a VIP list for security reasons...
They will probably be added in the next version...
The source code is not provided, not like that means anything with ECRs
decent PPL decompiler available to you...
If you report any bugs or suggestions, you will receive a free registered
version and will receive thanks in the next version (whoopee)...
This program is distributed as CARDWARE... you are encouraged to send us
several calling cards from your area to receive your registered version of
this PPE... sounds like a good deal, eh?
This PPE is uncrippled, meaning that if you register it, you are stupid.
There are no bitch messages, etc... HOWEVER, I want to hear your comments,
bitches, or suggestions... thanks.
