Among other new things, this issue we are gonna take a look at some
of our very prolific utility programers. With these people, TriBBS would
not be the program it is today. Whether you want to have a bulletin
showing users how much your BBS is used, or somthing to help you manage
the day to day operation of your BBS, These are the people who do it.
This Issue, we are gonna look at Keith Kolbo. Keith runs Falcore
BoatWorks Remote Access in Orlando Florida. He has been using TriBBS
since March of 1992 and registered with an early 109 in April. Keith
started programing just before he switched to TriBBS in Fed of 92
learning first C, then C++. Since then, he has put out several great
utilities that have come in very handy (at least on Imagine they have.
Among his "Works of Art" include:
SOCIAL.XXX Social Even Poster. A Test Program written as an
exercise to learn file I/O in 'C'. Using DOORWAY it
becomes a door where users may post a Social Event
Notice.
LOGLIM.XXX Logon LImit Changer -- Changes the maximum logon
time limit in TriBBS. You can now set up scheduled
hours with different max logon times. Good for
managing peak traffic hours. Game players can have
special hours for in and out logons. Early morning
hours for extra long logons ?
PAGSCRN.XXX Page Bell Screen -- From LOGON.BAT checks the users
name against a list. Then turns on or off the page
bell access. Good for allowing only special callers
to page, or just screening out abusers. You choose.
TSUB20.XXX TSUB -- A utility to make a door (subboard) out of
TriBBS. Will work with most BBS's that can create a
DOOR.SYS file. Passes Callers baud, time left and
error correcting connection status. Version 2.0
fixes the local logon difficuties for Wildcat
Boards.
BHOURS.XXX Control Part-Time node or BBS operation from
BOARD.BAT.
LOGSTAMP.XXX LOGSTAMP ver 1.0 by Keith S. Kolbo Utility to
assist the sysop. Stamps a date and time with a
spacified string to a file or TriBBS log. Mark the
start and stop of events ect. FREE.
** USRSCN40.XXX UserScan and UserDoor version 4.0 by Keith Kolbo.
Archive contains both the local utility and a door
version of the UserScan sysop tool for TriBBS 4.0X.
Search by: Name or fragment, Phone or fragment,
security level <=>, age <=>, private file area /
conference access, and expiration date. Edit users
recor. Send UserGrams to groups or individuals.
Dump Search results to file. Now has Alias support.
** PREREG40.XXX PreReg v 4.0. An automatic new user upgrade utility
for TriBBS v4.01 and 3.x. Runs in LOGON.BAT. Checks
to see if it is a new user, then checks sysop's
list to see if they are expected. Upgrades security
and time. Options for name and / or password match.
Security level and time configurable for each user.
** denotes utilities which are reveiwed in this issue of the newsletter
As you can See, Keith has been quite busy. And to think, He got
his first IBM type computer back in Nov 91. That a long way in such a
short time.
So, what has Keith got planed for the future, well, its all a
big secret, or so he says. All I've been able to find out is it will be
a "State of the Art" door game like no other we have ever seen !!
If you would like to reach Keith, you can call Falcore BoatWorks
Remote Access at 407-277-5316 at speeds up to 14.4v32bis. Keith can
also be reached on the TriBBS support echo (TTN, INTELEC, and FIDO)
along with TriBBS Utilies and TTN Chat on TTN.
Thanks again Keith and keep up the good work.
