- Due to the fact - that this is still a ßeta short Dox only :
Extract all files you got !with! subdirectories to a directory.
- Add the UPLOAD.PPE for the (U) / (UB) / (BU) and (UPLOAD) commands within
your CMD.LST(s) within PCBSetup / Configuration Files.
- If you want the user to be able to disable the Top 10 Uploader Ansi
simply add a TPA (Third Party Application) called TOPUP with the Version
10 - Static Size 1 - Dynamic Size 1 - and Keyword TOPUP within your
PCBSM / User file maintenance.
- For further configuration edit the TOP-UP.CFG file.
- To remove users from the Top 10 Up/Downloader add a file named "NOT-UP"
containing in the first line the Number of users you do not want to be
listed and after that the names of the users ...
- For the final configuration edit the TOP10.CFG file. Here you may
define if you want to use the Top10 display routines and others.
- For extracting File_Id's within work with the Local Upload Processor
you may edit the "Diz.Bat" in the "LUPL" directory.
- The DOWNLOAD.PPE is not yet working properly, but that's one reason why
this is called "TOP/UP" :). Simply have a glance at it ... currently it
will only display the Top/Dn list and continue with the normal download ...
(■) Advantages and Disadvantages of Top/Up -> PCBoard 15.x+
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
( - ) Disadvantages:
─────────────────────
The Upload Securities (UPSEC) are overridden
The Upload File Trashcan is disobeyed
(I think your Upload Checker does the same ...)
Top/Up will always take the modem Offhook during the phase of testing
files (If user chose to hangup before :) ) I don't think a sysop
wants this switch disabled.
Switches "Disallow BATCH Uploads" and "Promote to Batch Transfers"
are not obeyed in your PCBSetup/Configuration Options/File Transfers.
Normaly your Uploads ARE Batch Uploads - and due to the fact that
there exists no user (as far as i know :) ) who uses a Protocol which
is not capable of Batch Transfers I will not take care in what these
switches are saying...
PCBoards internal Protocols are no longer usable... (ZMREC/ZMSEND
IS usable!)
( + ) Advantages:
──────────────────
Easier and faster handling while also having good looking
menues.
Stops the accounter of files and bytes at PCBoards maximum and
does not restart counting at 0 (!)
Top/Up will inform the user if an event will be processed and
the Sysop (You) dissallowed uploads prior a given time. (PCBoard
simply says: Access Denied!)
Private Uploads are also possible with files having an Filedescription
(File_Id.Diz ao...)
Big Improvement for PCBoard is the usage of the Local Uploader.
No further need of entering a full path and blabla ... use your
Cursor Keys ...
(not your brain :) [where did i push the file before, mmh?])
If a user chose to upload even if he had files flagged for download
his download flag-list won't be lost ... (Top/Up naturally informs
the user that he's flagged files for D/l :) )
PCBoard kills this (FLIST) list ... (Why? Don't know ... :) )
Top/Up will first check (via Filechecker :) ) if the file contains
a file_id and not ask for a filedescription if PCBoard's to lame
to find a filedescription. (Lharc files,Rar files aso...)
If we'll get it finished (somewhen :) ) Recovery uploads will be
possible.
(■) Diamond Means
─────────────────
Now choose by yourself ... Simply test it ...
Install Top/Up and feel the "Diamond-" hard work ...
After testing and if you think this is nothing for you
Simply remove it from your "CMD.LST" ;-).
(■) !Warning!
─────────────
The external PPE's Top10.Ppe, Hangup.Ppe and EditList.Ppe wont have
any usage without Top/Up's Upload.Ppe (and Download.Ppe of course).
The Group Diamond can not be made responsible for any loss of Data
or Money. Everything you do with these Programs is your own Risk.
We tested (Thanks to several dudes who "Playtested" Top/Up) as long
as possible and decided Top/Up as worth getting publicated.
We can gurantee that these Programs are "Backdoorfree" supporting
PCBoards maximum performance.
Top/Up is neither Shareware nore Software which can be bought
at a Computerstore. It's freeware and can be used as long as you
may wish.
Companies: If you'd like to abuse this program for one of your
"nice" CD-Roms ... try to get an arrangement with us before making
money with(out) us. All rights are resevered by the Authors of
Top/Up. Everything is prohibited - Nothing allowed! Understand
this as it's written!
If you think there's something worth to be improved get in touch
with us and read "Diamond.Nfo".
Of cause you may edit the "Gfx" files ... but expect some problems
while doing so :). I don't explain this here because you should
see it be yourself ...
(■) THANKS!
───────────
Real nice understanding came from these Persons:
Baudbandit/Hideout
Yeah you got a lot of Problems via Top/Up.
I'm awfully sorry for these Problems and
shout out megabig thanks for your time and
Help! Also thanks go cross to the users of
the Hideout who got several Timelimit exceededs.
Sorry for that - but that's life (?) :)
Julie (and the Team)/Mci Escapes
Thanks for you, having so much time in searching
for Bugs ... I'm also sorry for your Users
sometime having trouble with Top/Up ... Well
it takes sometime to make Programs run Bugfree :)
Users of Silicon Valley
Sorry for you dudes who had problems via Top/Up,
but it seemed as if you where lucky having not
that many Bugs :)
Farenheith/Da Pool
Thanks for Betatesting ... :)
All the others who used Top/Up running on their board without
knowing how many problems Top/Up could've done :). At the time
i only could say that i forgot your names and lost due to several
Harddisk problems your Phonenumbers ... maybee if you read this now
you remember and get back in touch with us ... :)
(■) Nevertheless
