- ModInfo 1.1, ModPut 1.0 and ModServer 1.1
- by Erik Lindberg
-
-
- Introduction:
- -------------
- ModInfo, ModPut and ModServer is three AREXX scripts to use with AmIRC.
- Their purpose is to enhance the IRC experience for Mod freaks. ModInfo
- is a little script for telling everyone what mod you are playing at the
- moment. ModPut is a script for easy transfer of the mod you are playing
- at the moment. ModServer is a script for fetching and querying about
- modules.
-
-
- Requirements:
- -------------
-
- AmIRC
- AREXX
- LhA
- Hippoplayer or Delitracker
- (Mods Anthology and a CDRom for the neat features)
-
-
- Contents:
- ---------
-
- This readme
- ModInfo.amirx
- ModPut.amirx
- ModServer.amirx
- Authornames.txt (Only useful if you've got Mods Anthology)
- Groupnames.txt (Only useful if you've got Mods Anthology)
-
-
- Installation:
- -------------
-
- 1. Copy the scripts and the names.txt files to the AmIRC rexx directory
- (preferably). You can keep them elsewhere if you like.
-
- 2. Edit the authorpath in both ModInfo.amirx and ModServer.amirx to the
- location you keep the #?names.txt files.
-
- 3. In ModServer.amirx, edit temppath to where you want to keep the lha
- files you're going to send.
-
- 4. In AmIRC, change CTCP request in Setup/Events to: ModServer.amirx %p and
- in Setup/Actions you can have ModInfo and ModPut on one button each and
- the operation /rx ModInfo.amirx and /rx ModPut.amirc on them.
-
- 5. Finished!!!
-
-
- Usage:
- ------
- When you push the button labeled ModInfo something like this will appear:
-
- «Action» | Shades is playing art of undulation by: Fash.
-
- That is if you use Delitracker and Mods Anthology. The output when using
- Hippoplayer is something like this:
-
- «Action» | Shades is playing art of undulation size: 203K
-
- The ModServer will act like a server where people can see what module you
- are playing. The command is /ctcp yournick modinfo. The output from that
- query will be msg:ed to that person.
- They will alse be able to fetch modules, both packed and unpacked. The
- command to use is /ctcp yournick getmod and /ctcp yournick getmodunpack.
-
- Bugs:
- -----
-
- Hmmm... Well... It seems that modnames with spaces in them will cause
- trouble with the getmod command.
