Cyanide Setup Utility v1.4ß
---------------------------
Wow! Cyanide's hot on it's feet and ready for some more power packed action!
New for Cyanide is Cyanide's AWESOME new menu driven Setup Utility. This new
addition to the Cyanide Family has been a great one indeed. It has it's OWN
style, look, and doesn't remind anyone of that silly FoRuM look. Ack! Forum...
------------------
New Features
------------------
Key: + New Feature
- Deleted Feature
= Modified Feature
+ Mouse Support at Main Menu - Though this isn't too bad, it works great.
It doesn't work through out then WHOLE Setup, But you don't really need
it everywhere. Remember, this is a BETA COPY. So what do you expect?
- That STUPID Forum Page crap. Don't need it, and never will. It was too
dumb, and a pain the ass going though changing the stuff around. Well,
it was good during the Dark Ages...
- Online Help (via F1) - No one really needs help anymore, and besides,
the Setup self explains itself now
- Colors. I took out most all the colors. Now it's plain grey for FASTER
screen writes, and a few windows here and there. It saves time, and who
cares for a COLORFUL Setups anyways?
- Option: Save/Load Setup File. Took out the Load up Setup actaully.
Most people just exited the Setup without saving then coming back in to
loadup a previous Setup.
+ Main Menu Pulls - Again, this is a ncie feature; Sorts all the stuff
around.
+ Little more fancier at the welcome. I think it looks sweet myself.
= New time Setup. When you load up for the first time, you go through a
little 'box' of info first. Just gets you on your feet.
+ Added some Yes No Prompts that look hot. Now you can use your CURSOR
KEYS to move the ( ) around the Yeses and Noes. (Noes.. Nos.. Hmmm..)
Like: Would you like a free Dual Standard? (Yes) No <- moving the ()'s
with the Keys, and Even the Y or N will do. Pressing the return on the
current Yes/No will also work.
+ New Box Screen. White over blue. I think it looks good too.
Lots of little things... you had to be there.
------------------
Again, I'd like to express that this IS a Beta Version. It does NOT HAVE
all the valiables it should. This is just to check bugs, and other things
before adding the complete stuff. Thanks again all you supporters out there
who made Cyanide what it is, and all you abusers too - Kept me pushing
strong, and now - Maybe even better than anything else.
------------------
Special thanks go out to:
The Grand Wizzard: Thanks for the Beta testing, and uploading me Low Blow 2.
Misfit: Thanks for all your thankyous, and 'good job' s, and 'I like this'
Help make this Setup Possible.. Hmm..
The Stallion: If it wern't for you, this Setup wouldn't of existed. I know
how much you want a decent bbs software - and nothing to good
out there.. Well, Can't say much.
And all you others I havn't mentioned.
------------------
PLEASE READ!!!!!!!
------------------
Yah, Sure, you may think Cyanide isn't much of anything. Well, actaully,
you could be right. It wasn't intended to become some big thing and take
over the world. *BUT* I really did hope it could of been something special.
Well, It can. And it IS. Before, Cyanide wasn't much of anything. No one
took much part in making what it is today.. But now you can!
Starting today (Nov 24th 90) you can help take part in making Cyanide some-
thing. No, there is no APPLICATION, or Validation, or ANY process to help
out. We're just opening up some Cyanide 'departments' to some people who
just might wanna help. Doesn't MATTER WHO YOU ARE - Friend or Foe (?), You
can JUST maybe help. We're looking for people who can suit these positions:
* Writers - No necessary typing skills, just get somthing done. Will
need a few writers for New features, and a writer or two for a Super-duper
Manual.
* Programmers - Hey, If you know pascal, why not take part in Cyanide.
Cyanide speads fast, and saying 'Hey, I wrote that procedure' or 'Man,
see that? I wrote that bitch!' is a good feeling. Being a part of the
Cyanide team is a fun and thrilling feeling because your always meeting
new bugs. Ack!
* Beta PEOPLE - YOU PEOPLE DON'T HAVE TO RUN A BOARD! - All we're looking
for is people who are willing to just set aside a directory of Cyanide to
check out, run it's ass off, and check for ANY bugs. That's nice.
* Distributors - Oh god. No, We're no cracking group, Nor want to be. We just
want to get Cyanide known, and even maybe run. Running Cyanide is a whole
different subject, so I'll stay out of that (Read News)
Do you fit in any one of these catagories? Well, if so, leave some email
to: MaggotMan along with some information on what YOU can do!
----------------
Alrighty, well, To late to write anymore.. 'nuff said. Thanks again all
you people out there who helped Cyanide is ANY way.
