Version 2.10
------------
* Still working on PONYROM.DOC update. Not completed for this version.
* Added an ENVIRONMENT variable via the SET= command.
PONYROMLOG Set location to log to update. If this is not set,
PonyROM will create a PONYROM.### log file with the
information. (ie. SET PONYROMLOG=C:\WC30\ACTIVITY.001)
If it is set, it will append info to your log file of
choosing.
* Fixed double press enter at the end of a file listing
* Added [F3] Debug Information to help aid in setup debuging, sorry no room
on line 24/25 for the [F3] command ... you will just have to RTFM to
know this command is available :-)
* Fixed lockups when there is a blank line at end of text file listings
during a text search. You are still required to remove blank lines at
the end of your text file listings, but at least now you will not get
lock ups or exception # 12's, when PonyROM finds a blank line at the
end of yor Files.bbs listing.
* Added GENERIC.### (###=Node Number). This file is created when you choose
BBS drop file type GENSYS, or GENDEF. This file is created only after
downloads. You can then use this information to write your own program
to update your own users records. The format of this file is:
Line #1: Users Name { Joe Blow }
Line #2: Downloaded K # { 110 }
Line #3: Downloaded File # { 2 }
After leaving the door, run your "own" written user base converter and
then delete this file.
* Added [Optional] HELPMENU.BBS/HELPMENU.SCR support so that you can now add
help information of your choosing, such as BBS subscriptions etc. to the
HELP section, if you desire. Changed help names from ?-HELP.xxx to
HELP-?.xxx to better keep track of help files (ie. DIR HELP*.*)
* Added update support for Remote Access v2.00g, and Generic drop files
Dorinfox.def & Door.sys files. You will have to change your PonyCFG
to use one of the new versions.
The Current BBS types known to PonyCFG BBS Type are:
Name Version Comments
───────────── ────────────────────── ──────────────────────────────────
Remote Access [Remote Access 1.11] (Left For prior compatibility only)
RA1 [Remote Access 1.11] (Same as 'Remote Access')
RA2 [Remote Access 2.00g1] (New Exitinfo.bbs format)
Wildcat [Wildcat 3.xx] (All WC! from v3.00 to latest known
v3.60)
GENDEF [Generic Dorinfox.def] (Any Generic Converted/Non-Converted
Dorinfox.def. Creates GENERIC.###)
GENSYS [Generic Door.sys] (Any Generic Converted/Non-Converted
52 Line Door.sys. Creates GENERIC.###)
Note: PCBoard & Robo-Board code Support has been removed. Any other bbs
type entered in PonyCFG than those listed above will default to reading
door.sys, with poor results.
+ Added an [Optional] CD-ALL.DEF, CD-ALL.SCR, CD-ALL.BBS. This will allow
you to have (1) CD####.DEF file for all access levels with optional
Ascii/Ansi cdrom choice display screen. You can then have a
CD####.DEF/CD####.BBS/CD####.SCR for ONLY the access levels you want to
limit rather than for EVERY access level, as done in the past.
Example: If your non-paid access was access level 5, and you wanted to give
full access to all other access levels, you would have a CD-ALL.DEF/SCR/BBS
with ALL your cdroms listed and a CD5.DEF/SCR/BBS with 1 or 2 cdroms listed
This will also work for those that have 10 cdroms, and only 1 cdrom drive!
You can now just create a CD-ALL.DEF for EACH cdrom and copy over when you
switch cdrom discs (ie COPY CD-MON.DEF CD-ALL.DEF, COPY CD-TUE.DEF
CD-ALL.DEF etc)
+ Added a [Optional] Logoff Ascii/Ansi screen. Named CDBYE.BBS & CDBYE.SCR.
It will be displayed if found, or ignored if not found.
* If you want to use a conversion of "DORINFOx.DEF", set PonyCFG to BBS
type "GENDEF", and point it to the location/filename of your DORINFOx.DEF.
This will make PonyROM work with any DORINFOx.DEF converter, but will not
update any bbs records. It will create a GENERIC.### file for your own
conversion use.
* If you want to use a conversion of 52 LINE "DOOR.SYS", set PonyCFG to BBS
type "GENSYS", and point it to the location/filename of your DOOR.SYS.
This will make PonyROM work with any DOOR.SYS converter, but will not
update any bbs records. It will create a GENERIC.### file for your own
conversion use.
