LastXFER, 6/18/1991, Scott Brown
Purpose:
--------
I wrote this program for sysops who do echomail transfers and would like
to let their users know when they are taking place. To use this
program, put it in the batch file right before you run your mail
import/export utility (eg. PCRelay, RyPACKER, etc..). Example:
lastxfer xfer.cfg
rypacker p u rypacker.cfg
Designing your screen:
----------------------
The screen that is created can be designed by you... in any word
processor/text editor/ansi editor. Simply design the screen
and put (in one color) the statement "%XDATE" for the transfer date
time and "%XTIME" for the transfer time. Example:
---------------------------------------------------------------
Last Fidonet echomail transfer was at %XTIME on %XDATE.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Usage:
------
The first step in using this program is creating the configuration
file. To do this, load a word processor or text editor that saves
dos text such as Qedit and create a file called XFER.CFG. The file
should be in the following format:
<input ascii file>
<output ascii file>
<input ansi file>
<output ansi file>
Take a look at the included sample file XFER.CFG.
To load the program, type LASTXFER <configuration file>, ex:
LASTXFER XFER.CFG
Support:
--------

the support BBS for this program. The Swing BBS is located in
Larchmont, New York and the phone number is 914-834-7830.
