╔════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗
║ CHAPTER TWO ANNEX O E. TEXT SECTIONS CONFIGURATION ║
╚════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
Text files from within various directories on your system
may be configured here for display. Types of text files commonly
configured here include (but are not limited to):
∙ game scoreboards
∙ general information about your BBS
∙ standard operating procedures / rules for your BBS
∙ information about viruses
∙ rules of "netiquette"
and so on.
To add a new entry to the text section configuration,
press [F1] at the scrolling-window screen. You will be prompted
for the following information:
1) Name
════
The name of the text section, as it will appear to the
user.
2) Path
════
The full pathname to the directory in which the text
file(s) is located.
3) Security Level
══════════════
The MSL needed to access this particular text section.
4) Access Flag
═══════════
The access flag needed to access this particular section
(please see "The User Editor" for more on access flags).
To edit an entry, move the highlight bar to the desired entry
and press [Enter]. You will have a chance to edit the above
information.
In VCONFIG, you can define any directory on your system as
containing text for a defined subject area. Text directories may
be networked by using a script maintaining a database for text
files.
TIP ─────> It might be wise to keep these text files fairly
short since they are read on-lie. Longer text files
may be zipped up and made available for download.
