- Leechmaster Quick Dox - Hermes External by Jon Davidson
- ---------------------
-
- ABOUT: LM (LeechMaster) is an external that will create and maintain 3 data
- files (Top 10 Leeches, Top 10 Uploaders and Top 10 Posters). The data
- files are then displayed to the user as he/she logs onto the BBS. If the user
- is currently on one of the lists they will be notified as they logon to the
- BBS. Also if desired you can set-up LM to skip the "Scan new messages to you"
- prompt. If this selection is used than LM will bypass all of the Hermes logon
- information and present it's own custom logon sequence. If this sequence is
- used it will also notify users if they have EMail waiting. And if a sysop logs
- on it will let them know if there is any Validation Feedback waiting. Also if
- you run the external "Inquisition" LM will let you know how many users are in
- the Inquisition folder.
-
- INSTALL: Installation of LM is simple, just drop the external into the Hermes
- external folder and re-run Hermes. If it is installed correctly you
- should see a message such as 'Leechmaster v3.3a, By Jon Davidson' below the
- 'Waiting...' text.
-
- CONFIG: After LM is installed select the 'System Prefs' option from Hermes and
- click on the LM Icon. You are now presented with a dialog containing
- the options to LM. You can use the checkboxes to configure LM as you wish.
- These options are more-or-less self explanitory. After you have decided which
- of the three files (or all) you wish to use click on the 'Update Lists' button
- which will scan the userfile and create the Top 10 lists you have configured.
-
- RESEDIT: There are 2 STR# resource strings for each of the 3 data files, one of
- these is the string that is displayed to a user on logon if he/she is
- found to be on one of the lists, the other is the string that is used as the
- header to the data file as it is outputed. If you want feel free to use
- ResEdit to edit these STR# resources to you tastes.
-

- you program your own externals please leave me Email on the Hermes
