This is an addendum to CAL14S23.ZIP and contains a new version of CALLS.EXE which addresses the problems or new features listed below. A sample CALLS.CNF is also included as several new entries have been added. Problems: 1: With the new feature of PCBoard 14.5a that allows single character Door names, CALLS.EXE locks up. Fixed the routine that found the Door name and stripped off the path information. 2: Non ANSI callers were ignored (those with (A) in the log), only (N) & (G) graphics modes were being recognized. Added Non ANSI as graphics mode (A) so now all three modes are reported. 3: Sysop sessions were ignored when PCBoard was setup to use the Sysops true name instead of just SYSOP. Added SYSOPNAME option to config file to allow recognizing the Sysop in the caller log when the full name is used instead of SYSOP. If not given the default is SYSOP. 4: Average Event Length always showed ZERO for my board, as the first event activity was RNET which writes entries to the log that duplicate a User logon and CALLS.EXE considers the Event to end the first caller entry. This also causes problems that the Event does not terminate timing until a caller logs on and this does not reflect event duration properly. Added support for RNET that causes CALLS to not stop timing an event if it sees the FirstName is RNET.EXE. Also Added EXCLUDENAME to allow skipping another program like RNET.EXE that appears to log on as a User in the log. If the first name of the User matches the EXCLUDENAME it is skipped. (Also now allowed to specify up to 10 EXCLUDENAME entries) Added the recognition of the line: Scheduled Event ended at MM-DD-YY HH:MM:SS to properly end the event time calculations rather than continuing time until a caller logs on. This entry can be created by using a utility to write lines to callers log. (Like my CL-PRINT.COM program.) Added Event program report. Using the line Event: program name started at MM-DD-YY HH:MM:SS will begin the timing of an event program. Timing will end when another line starting with 'Event: ' is detected, the Scheduled Event ended line is detected or a User logon is deteced. The Number of times each program is executed and total time is tracked and a report of Average time is generated. -= Average Event Program Times =- Norton Speed Disk: 5 Times 31.6 Min Avg. Backup: 5 Times 10.6 Min Avg. PCBFile: 5 Times 6.2 Min Avg. Call Analyzer: 5 Times 1.6 Min Avg. 5. Connect Type Report is not working. Added recognition of 'Modem:' as connect type for PCBoard 14.x compatability. Added RINGFILTER ON/OFF to control removal of RING from CONNECT type report. Also removes any additional text after the CONNECT XXXXXXXXX message. 6. Batch Size Report is not working. (FREE Downloads also not working) PCBoard 14.5a now supplies Batch transfer report, added support for the format of this data so that this report now works. PCBoard does not flag FREE or NO TIME Downloads in any way in the caller log so this report can not 'easily' be made to work. The amount of time the report would spend attempting to decide if a file was FREE or not would not be worth it. If future versions of PCBoard do note this in the caller log, I will get this report to work. 7. PCBVerify's report of "XXX-XXX-XXXX Added to trashcan" causes security violation counts. Fixed. 8. Sysop paged after hours, not counted. Created seperate counter for this, along with report of Chat Time. Added Node chat also Added CHATMODE and NODEMODE which operate similar to EVENTMODE but control Sysop Chat and Node Chat timing. But I recommend that they be set to IDLE in most cases, Unless you find they need to be changed. 9. Messages left count did not include RNET imported messages, ZIPM messages showed import & export count. Made RNET import messages show in messages left count and also in ZIPM (changed name to MAIL) count. RNET import counts as MAIL executed. 10. Log off scripts did not count in Scripts Completed. Made seperate counter for this. 13. Added configuration variable REPORTTYPE to control output generated. ASCII will generate non-color version, ANSI will generate 'G' color version, and BOTH will generate both (Default). Added ReportType of PCBOARD to generate a single outputfile using PCBoard @Xnn color codes 12. Added additional reports of Users who leave messages and Which Conference is getting message traffic. Added MAXMSGS & MAXUSERS to control new reports of Conference Messages Left & User Messages Left 13. Added additional reports for reasons logged off and security violations. Added Sysop Statistics 'S' report Sysop Local Sessions... x Node Chats Initiated... x Sysop Remote Sessions.. x Node Chat Time (min)... x Remote DOS Time (min).. x Sysop Chats Initiated.. x Remote Drops to DOS.... x Sysop Chat Time (min).. x SHELL Executed......... x Sysop Paged............ x Text Files Viewed...... x Sysop Paged after Hours x Caller log Viewed...... x Temporary Sysop Priv... x Added User Statistics 'R' report Protocol Changes....... x Expert mode Toggled.... x User Record Updates.... x Graphic Mode Toggled... x Language Changes....... x Page Length Changes.... x Changed Security Statistics 'N' report Automatic Lockouts..... x Security Violations.... x Trashcan Names......... x Attempted Alias Logon.. x Excessive Passwords.... x Password Failures...... x Refused Registration... x Non-Registered Users... x Time Limit Expired..... x Not Registered in Conf. x Keyboard Timeouts...... x Dropped Carrier........ x Insufficient D/L Time.. x Dropped Carrier in Door x Insufficient Bytes/File x Missing Level in PWRD.. x Automatic Disconnects.. x Door Selected UnAvail.. x Moved Scheduled Event & Event Time and Added Logoff Scripts Completed to Systems Statistic 'A' report. Directory Scans........ x Total Messages Left.... x Doors Opened........... x Comments Left........ x Time spent in Doors.. xx:xx PCBoard Messages..... x Downloads Completed.... x MailDoor Messages.... x Different Files...... x Net MAIL Messages.... x Downloads Aborted.... x Net MAIL Executed.... x Free Downloads....... x Number of Callers...... x REPACK Executed........ x New Users Registered. x TEST Executed.......... x Ave. Calls Per Day... x.x Uploads Completed...... x Ave. Call Duration... x.x Bad Uploads Deleted.. x Ave. Idle Time....... x.x Uploads Aborted...... x Scripts Completed...... x VIEW Executed.......... x Logoff Script Completed x Members Extracted.... x Total Operation Hours.. x.x Members Viewed....... x Utilization Hours.... x.x Scheduled Events....... x Total Utilization %.. x.x Ave Event Length (min). x.x Peak Utilization %... x.x LIB Executed........... x Time System locked up.. x.x 14. Fixed problem with security levels being duplicated in .SAV file due to spaces stripped off of first entry only. 15. Changed output structure of fileames in .SAV file to save space. 16. Added Language report by placing Language Number in Modem connect string ie. Modem (1): CONNECT 2400 or Caller Number string ie. Caller Number (1): 12345 or Security Level string ie. Caller Security (1): 50 This is accomplished by using MKTXT145 to modify the record for the 'Modem: @OPTEXT@' (rec no 590), 'Caller Number: @OPTEXT@' (rec no 591) or 'Caller Security: @OPTEXT@' (rec no 592) and adding the text (n) to the current text as shown above (where n is the language number, ie. for your first language you add (1), for your second language PCBTEXT file you add (2), etc...) 17. Found limitation in graph routines that limited lists to 100 items, which caused loss of many Names, Conference Bulletins, Conferences joined if any list execeed that number of items, incresed limit to 500 which should be sufficient for most systems, if not change the const (graph_num). 18. Added FILENAMES to control the saving of filenames and Counts to the History File. 19. Added FILTERFILE Masks to allow filtering filenames from report and history file. Wildcards are allowed and a special '#' wildcard will match another '#' or a digit ('0' - '9') to aid in filtering capture file downloads (#####?.ZIP and #####?.CAP). 20. Allowed for 10 EXCLUDENAME Entries & 50 FILTERFILE Masks Entries 21. Added Last-On Report, requires using program like CL-PRINT V2.0 to write a line to the CALLER log file in the format of Last On: MM-DD-YY (HH:MM) or Last On: MM-DD-YY (HH:MM) for nn Minute(s) or Last On: MM-DD-YY (HH:MM) for nn Minute(s) - #nnnn The report format look like this: -= Last Called In =- Within One Week: 129 (19.9%) │░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░█ Previous Day: 112 (17.3%) │▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓█ Same Day: 99 (15.3%) │▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒█ Within Two Weeks: 36 ( 5.5%) │░░░░░░░░░░░█ Within One Month: 32 ( 4.9%) │▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓█ New Users: 24 ( 3.7%) │▒▒▒▒▒▒▒█ Within Two Months: 16 ( 2.5%) │░░░░█ Within Four Months: 12 ( 1.8%) │▓▓▓█ Within Six Months: 10 ( 1.5%) │▒▒█ Within Nine Months: 4 ( 0.6%) │█ Within Two Years: 4 ( 0.6%) │█ Within Three Years: 1 ( 0.2%) │ Within One Year: 1 ( 0.2%) │ Example: CL-PRINT C:\PCB\MAIN\CALLER /Q,/S,"Last On: @D (@T)" or CL-PRINT C:\PCB\MAIN\CALLER /Q,/Z,/S,"Last On: @D (@T) for @M Minute(s)" or CL-PRINT C:\PCB\MAIN\CALLER "/Q/Z/SLast On: @D (@T) for @M Minute(s) - #@#" This example can be run in your $$LOGON.BAT NOTE: SHARE must be loaded if you intend to write to the CALLER log during $$LOGON.BAT or $$LOGON.BAT as PCBoard has the file open and has written entries to it prior to calling the batch files. If SHARE is not loaded you will write over the top of the entries PCBoard has made. Also, this can only be done on Network verisons /E & /U and you CAN NOT use it on /D or /S versions as PCBoard has the USERS file open in DENY READ/WRITE on these versions, so the file can not be opened by CL-PRINT to obtain the information desired. 22. Changed files downloaded report to not generate an ANSI sequence when there is no change in color. 23. Added more support for Southern Style & Three Stooges Language file entries in CALLERS log. 24. Added CATCHALLREPORT Variable to log text lines passing thru the Catchall routine to assist in changing the line parsing routines. 25. Added MAIL Door support. QMail, MarkMail & Cam-Mail entries are all recognized and a seperate report for each Mail Door is supported. All three reports are the same and the titles can be changed to anything so if it works for other mail doors you now have a report. (If it does'nt work, send some sample caller log entries to me and I will try to add support, I might add control over which entries are printed so those which are not applicable to a particular door can be skipped). 26. Added support for a few junk entries (like CALLER NUMBER:) to speed up report by recognizing the entry sooner. And to support imbedding the Language number in Caller Number as well. (See item #16 above) 27. Added support and a report for a User Definable Door. (Door U / Y8) Text to be scanned for may be defined (up to 20 variables) and The Text to be used in the Report may be defined. Undefined variables will not be scanned for or reported. Special handling is defined for entries that would indicate the Door logged the caller off, and entries which should not be counted if the Door logged the User off. (this allows for not counting CARRIER LOST as a User Hang up if it was the door that dropped carrier.) Also printing '...' or blank entries in the report to allow lining up report when skipping variables or using an odd number of variables. Count of times Door used and logging off in door and Time Spent in Door are always reported for the Door, so no special handling for this is needed. 28. Added changes from CAL14S22.ZIP & CAL14S23.ZIP to this release. 29. Added Message Statistic Report. -= Message Statistics =- Messages Left.......... x MailDoor Messages...... x Via PCBoard..... xx.x% Via Mail Doors.. xx.x% Comments Left........ x Net MAIL Messages.... x Via COMMENT..... xx.x% Via Mail Import. xx.x% Messages Moved....... x Net MAIL Executed.... x Messages Copied...... x Mail Packets DLed.... x Messages Restored.... x Aborted. x Messages Deleted..... x Reply Packets Uled... x Message Entry Aborted.. x Aborted. x Message Base Packed.... x No Room for text....... x 30. Added SECLABEL variable to define text to be added to Security Level reports, and NOSECLABEL variable to define text for no level. 31. Corrected Door timing routines to properly time a Door when User Logged off in Door and a Back From Dos entry did not exist. If you Run PCBVerify (or some other Door from your InstaReg batch file, instead of returning to the BBS first, you can use CL-PRINT to insert a line: Opened Door (VERIFY) at HH:MM Via InstaReg ie. CL-PRINT C:\PCB\MAIN\CALLER /Q,/S,"Opened Door (VERIFY) at /T Via InstaReg" This will cause CALLS to stop timing the InstaReg Door and start timing the new Door (ie. VERIFY) and accumlate the information on the proper Door. 32. Changed report format for many of the Doors to make them consistent with one another and to add a couple of entries. 33. Added seperate reports for Hangups in Board & in Doors. 34. Added support for PCBVerify 4.0 message changes and minor changes to Report for PCBVerify (VERIFY & CALLBACK) 35. Removed GENERIC & DEFDOORTITLE and replaced with REPORTTITLE to define label for any of the report sections 36. Added Report control characters for REPORTS definition Z - insert a blank line . - do nothing character @ - insert a @MORE@ prompt $ - insert a @PAUSE@ prompt % - insert a @WAIT@ prompt * - insert a @CLS@ if * is first character then a @CLS@ (or ANSI clear screen) will be sent at the beginning of bulletin. 37. Added REPORTACTION variable which can be defined with any of the above characters. These characters will be used to send strings after EVERY report section. If any of the above characters are included after a report directly in REPORTS, then the REPORTACTION will not be sent after that report allowing override of REPORTACTION to combine a couple of the shorter reports to a single screen. 38. Added a SHORTENGRAPH variable to the .CNF file that will cause the Hourly Usage graph to start at the highest used percentage instead of at 100% if desired. If a numeric value is used (0 to 100 by 5's then that will be the starting point if the highest percentage is below that). ie if the highest used percentage was 40 then the graph would start at NO = 100%, YES = 40%, 60 = 60%, 20 = 40%. 39. Added a REFUSEDREG variable that combines the Non-Registered value to the Refused to Register value in the report. When running your board to allow Users to remain on (a non-zero security level assigned to those who refuse to register), those Users will show up as Non-Registered Users and only those who give a partial name and then refuse to give a full name will show up as Refused to Register. If REFUSEDREG is set to YES, then both will be combined and reported under Refused to Register (although Non-Registered will still be reported). If you set a zero security level to those who refuse to register, there shoud be No Non-Registered Users reported as PCBoard kicks them off and issues the ACCESS DENIED - REFUSED TO REGISTER to the callers log, and I don't think will ever use the REFUSED TO REGISTER entry. I had the two backwards in previous releases, so some confusion existed. 40. Added LANGUAGE n Text variables to allow defining the name of the Languages instead of just the number as before. You can include the number in the text as in the example .CNF file. If not defined they now default to 'Language 1' etc.... 41. Added REPORTEXCLUDE which causes the graph items not to be accumulated which can shorten the SAVE file considerably if there are items you don't use in your report. The allowable entries are (CEFLOPQRUVWXY!=^-) and any other entries will just be ignored. 42. Added report for User Uploads (and a MAXUL setting). 43. Added report for Callers Hanging Up (and a MAXHANGUP setting) 44. Changed the DoorTime reports to HH:MM format from Minutes. 45. Changed all reports to allow for an extra digit in reports as some values were exceeding columns when accumulating data for a full year. 46. A few reorganizations in the code as it was starting to exceed code segment limitations. (no external appearence changes). Moved some of the conversion routines into a seperate UNIT. 47. Color of 'Period covered:' text changed from BLUE to CYAN for better readability on most systems. 48. Well, leap year came around and showed me another problem. Fixed the month to day calculations to account for leap year. This should keep things correct for awhile. 49. Added an EXCLUDEUSER which functions like EXCLUDENAME except it will allow excluding a list of Users from the Message Left, Upload & Caller Hanging Up reports. 50. Fixed UserName routine to pickup users with more then two names (ie. those users who use middle initials, etc...). Name now ends two chars before the '(' in the baud rate. 51. Added HEADER variable to define a HeaderFile to be read and written to the report prior to writing the report. If you include a '*' as the first character of REPORTS as indicated in item 36 above, then the @CLS@ (or <ESC>[2J) will be written before the HeaderFile data. Of course you could just include this @CLS@ in your header file text. If you use the ANSI output (or BOTH) then a 'G' will be added to the filename given in HEADER and that will be used for the 'G' version of the output. 52. Found a small problem in the RingFilter routine that allowed extra characters to be allowed into the report. Also forgot to add the entry to the sample .CNF file. (see item 6 about Ringfilter) 53. Added EXCLUDEDOOR to allow excluding door names from reports. Up to 50 door names are provided for. Added NONDOORNAME to allow defining the label used when reporting excluded doors. All excluded doors are counted and timed under this label and if the label is set to a blank the they will not be reported at all (or added to the save file). 54. Added Caller ID report. -= Caller ID Statistics =- Local Call ID: 6 (37.5%) │░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░█ Outside Area: 4 (25.0%) │▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓█ Private Num: 2 (12.5%) │▓▓▓▓▓▓█ ID Error: 2 (12.5%) │▒▒▒▒▒▒█ Long Dist ID: 2 (12.5%) │░░░░░░█ The Long Dist ID will probably not show up as most Caller ID services do not yet show calls from outside the local calling area, but provisions have been made just in case the services are expanded on. Most long distance calls will show up under Outside Area heading. The report requires that an entry be added to the CALLER log file in the format: CallerID: MM/DD HH:MM (AAA)EEE-NNNN G CallerID: MM/DD HH:MM OUTSIDE call G CallerID: MM/DD HH:MM PRIVATE call G CallerID: MM/DD HH:MM E B which should be compatible with most Caller ID services, if you have a different format that needs support, get me a message with the format and I will add support for it. 55. Added ITEMLEN variable. This controls the length that will be used of a graph item. This allows reducing the wasted space on the shorter reports and increasing the length of the graph bars themselves. It also allows increasing the defaults so the entire User Name would show if one exceeds the 20 character limit normally set in CALLS. 56. Added ITEMMAX variable. This controls the maximum length that will be used of a graph item when an ITEMLEN of -1 is specified for a report. 57. Added CONNECTFILTER variable. Some modems return much longer Connect strings and CALLS truncates the string making it less readable. Setting CONNECTFILTER to ON causes the word CONNECT to be eliminated from the string, allowing more room for useful text. If the string contains only the word CONNECT then it will not be removed. Also improved routine to remove the word CARRIER if both CARRIER and CONNECT are present and to remove the CONNECT rate as well as the word CONNECT when CARRIER is also present. 58. Changed message statistics report to include percentages for COMMENTS and Net Mail messages. Also stopped adding Net Mail messages into the count of messages left via PCBoard. Changed message reporting in System Statistics to show Total of all messages and the four sub-totals. 59. Added ability to Define an EXCLUDEUSER as a NetUser by including an '*' as FIRST character of UserName. This will cause messages left by this User to count as Net Mail instead of Mail Door messages. If NetUser is flagged and a message is left via PCBoard instead of a Door then the User Name will NOT be excluded and it will not count as Net Mail. Messages left will still show under Door report. 60. Found Confernence names limited to first characters of A-Z and 0-9. Removed restrictions altogether. 61. Added support for KMail & Net Mail Doors. All Net Mail Door messages count as Net Mail and messages will not be counted as from User in the Top User Message section without need for including User Name via EXCLUDEUSER. Messages left will still show under Door report. 62. Changed MarkMail message counting. Now adds conference totals on each message as before but does not add these to Door totals for MarkMail. Adds total from 'Inserted Messages: xxx Dupes Killed: xxx' line so it will work with Short or Long logging format of MarkMail. 63. Added NODELIST parameter to allow specifying the order of processing the CALLER logs for multi-node. You may arrange the nodes processed in any order you wish by specifing the node numbers in this list seperated by spaces. Set NODES to the number of nodes you place in the list. This means on a 9 Node setup you could specify NODES 5 and NODELIST 6 7 2 4 1 and only those 5 nodes would be reported on. If no list is provided then all nodes from 1 to NODES will be scanned as before. 64. Found CALLS could still write a blank line for a User name during one of the reports into the CALLS.SAV which would then produce an error when an attempt was made to re-read the file. Fixed this for good (I hope). 65. Expanded the Last called report to include 2,3,4 & 5 days instead of grouping them into the 'within one week'. 66. Changed File pointer to longint allowing proper reading of larger files. 67. Added TextatUrec to narrow down text match to text beginning at seventh character, instead of anywhere as in TextinUrec which sould stop some conferences with the word MODEM in them from counting as CONNECT messages and proabably some other misc. matches from occurring. 68. Fixed openfile procedure to properly skip a CALLER file that does not exist rather than stopping with an error. 69. Found a problem when a line of 62 '-' is written to the log (by what I don't know) as a '-' in the 3rd position is an indication of a caller logging on or off and was used to track time. Made the code check also in postion 13 for a ':' to verify the entry. 70. Added EXCLUDECONFERENCE and EXCLUDESECLEVEL to filter out conferences and User Security Levels from reports. 71. Found a problem with PCBVerify MODEM RETURNED statements causing junk entries 'hh:mm)' in the Connect Report if the door was executed under an undefined name or as part of InstaReg, etc. Modified the parsing routine to reject these entries. *--------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you know of any other problems that exist or some other data that is not being reported that should be, let me know. >>>>>Gary Meeker Source code is not included, as I don't wish to distribute modified source code, but feel other Sysops might benefit from the changes made.
