What is Transfer Stats:
Transfer Stats was written to help out sysops who cannot find the
kind of bulletin they desire for their boards by other utilities
of this nature.
Unlike many other similar utilities, Transfer Stats tracks the
overall CPS of file transfers, gives statistics on protocol usage,
trims the DOWNLOAD.TXT file to the number of days desired
(optional), lets you just display up to a minimum amount of
downloaded files, and lets you MASK out any filenames or
directories you don't want to appear in the bulletin, even
supports wildcards. You can also mask out certain user names (up
to 50), place the protocol stats at the end of the bulletin
or within a separate bulletin altogether.
Bulletins can be generated as ASCII, ASCII/ANSI, or PCB, and the
colors used are completely configurable.
To use this program type TRSTAT on the command line. Transfer
Stats will search the current directory for the configuration file
TRSTAT.CNF (you can use multiple configuration files by including
the filename on the command line, such as TRSTAT MYCONFIG.CFG).
It will read the configuration file get your configuration
options, analyze the DOWNLOAD.TXT file specified and generate the
bulletin. Please take a look at the TRSTAT.CNF file supplied for
further information on its construction.
At present the maximum number of protocols and user name masks
Transfer Stats will track is 50, and the maximum number of MASK
filenames is 1000.. However, both are wholly dependant on the
amount of memory in your computer (or assigned to the window if in
a multitasker). To help you, Transfer Stats displays memory usage
as it analyses your DOWNLOAD.TXT file... If you run out of memory
and are working within a multitasker, then assign more memory to
the "window" that Transfer Stats is running in.
