-
- Before you put R.PreStamp 2.0 in your event chain you will need
- to configure it.
-
- To configure:
-
- Launch it (Double Click on application) and hold
- down the mouse key while it loads. This will bring
- up the Configure Menu.
-
- *** READ this section if your pathnames are greater than 35 chars long ***
- ******
- ****** WARNING** If you have pathnames longer than 35 chars, you will
- ****** have to configure R.PreStamp slighly different. (You might want to
- ****** consider renaming Red Ryder Host to just Plain RRH or Host).
- ****** PreStamp, R.PreStamp, Epistle, Sapphire, Tabby Engines all are
- ****** based on full pathnames (this ensures the most reliablity). But
- ****** in doing full pathnames we limit launch paths to 35 characters
- ****** or less. (Anything deeper will bomb). For you guys with Host
- ****** baried 4 and 5 folders deep here is the solution: (remember:
- ****** this will work, but you loose some reliablity - if something
- ****** before R.PreStamp screws with the default volume ID, then R.PreStamp
- ****** may drop to the finder - but a R.PreStamp.error log will be created,
- ****** telling you the exact reasons why. SOLUTION: In the BBS Field,
- ****** type in your BBS Name Only (HOST). In the BBS Folder type in
- ****** only a colon (:). In the CallerLog Field, type in only the
- ****** Callerlog Name (CallerLog). If your callerlog is not at the
- ****** same level as RRH or its full path is greater than 35 then
- ****** you will have to move it to the same folder as RRH. Otherwise
- ****** use its full pathname (dd80:bbs:Log:CallerLog). In the Connect
- ****** Field type in one of the valid strings 300-19200. And Save
- ****** you settings. This setup assumes RRH, TabbyNet, Callerlog,
- ****** Next.Launch and the application in the launch chain are all
- ****** located in the same folder as R.PreStamp.
- ******
-
- There are 4 STRs that need to changed.
-
- BBS - This is YOUR BBS's NAME!! (Red Ryder Host)
- BBS Folder - This is the PATHNAME to your BBS (dd80:bbs:)
- ** Must end in a Colon : **
- CallerLog - This is the FULL PATHNAME to your Callerlog
- (dd80:bbs:log:CallerLog)
- Connect - This is the connect string to be printed in the
- callerlog. This can be 300/1200/2400/9600/19200.
- I use 19200 so I can determine how many network
- mail events have taken place, when archie is Run.
- (19200). DO NOT INCUDE THE "(" ")"
-
- Fill in the information as it relates to your Setup
- and Click on SAVE to save the information to DISK.
-
- R.PreStamp 2.0 is now ready to run. Place it as the first application
- in your Tabby Robot event chain STR# 301. See Tabby Docs on how to
- modify this STR#. R.PreStamp 2.0 runs so fast (it has been slowed
- down you can see what is happening), that it is not necessary to
- run BusyOut first.
-
- Event Chains should look something like this:
-
- R.PreStamp,BusyOut,TabbyNet,TabbyNet Send...........
- or
- BusyOut,R.PreStamp,TabbyNet,TabbyNet Send...........
-
-
- That is it folks. If you should accept this mission GOOD LUCK!
-
-
- IDEA's are always welcomed for new tabby event applications.
