==========================================
Name: C/Selector Author: Devil/1oo%
Type: CNet door Release: 08-Mar-98
Vers: 1.0
...introduction --.
- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------'
You may know the problem. You want to give a user some files and you don't
want to adopt these files anywhere or you are really sick of using CNet's
local-mode and the "*S" command, because you always need to enter the full
path to the file. Or you just have one of your users on the phone and he
asks you to give him some special files and he wants to download it later,
and this "later" is mostly the time when you're surly not in front of your
computer. That's why I wrote this door. Similar programs for the same
purpose exist. But they didn't work for me, so here's my solution:
C/Selector!
...requirements --.
- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------'
C/Selector requires OS 2.0 or higher and the reqtools.library (because I
give you a file requester on your CNet screen instead of a dull path+name
prompt!) installed on your system.
...installation --.
- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------'
This package includes two different version of C/Selector. The first one is
for all those CNet/3 SysOps - the second one is only for CNet/4.30+. If you
still use an older version of CNet/4, especially versions below 4.21, try
the CNet/3 version of C/Selector, or there will be a lot of problems with
the saving of OLMs and stuff.
Just copy the version of C/Selector fitting your CNet-installation to a
location on your system you like. I prefer "PFiles:1oo/Selector/" because
you should know where you keep all this fine 1oo% products! :)
Start a text-editor load "CNet:BBSMENU". Add the following line at the
BOTTOM of the "1; Maintenance" menu.
SELadd |#2PFiles:1oo/Selector/Selector}|
...usage --.
- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------'
Start C/Selector without arguments. You'll see the usage template that will
look like this:
1oo% C/Selector v1.0 written by Devil/1oo%
------------------------------------------
Usage: Sel <Handle|Port#>
Valid arguments are:
a) the port-number, if you want to select files for a user thats just
logged on to your BBS, or...
b) the users handle - in that case, C/Selector searches CNets ports for the
handle to see if he/she is online. If that is not the case, your userdata
is scanned for the handle, allowing you to select files "offline", they
will be written into "Mail:Users/<UUCP-ID>/_Select3" (that is, the users
select-list).
Next, a requester pops up, and you can (multi)select the files you want to
give to the user.
Then, C/Selector tries to Lock() these files. If everything went ok it will
look like this:
1oo% C/Selector v1.0 written by Devil/1oo%
------------------------------------------
SomeWhere:Full/Path/to/the/Files/Filename1.ext ... done.
SomeWhere:Full/Path/to/the/Files/Filename2.ext ... done.
2 file(s) added to <Handle>'s select-list.
If the user is online while you select files, he/she will recieve an OLM,
looking like this:
**** System Message (just sent)
<Your Handle> on port#x added 2 file(s) to your selectlist.
...history --.
- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------'
Changes/Fixes Date:
v0.8 first working (?) version of C/Selector 28-Sep-97
v0.9 some major changes for CNet/4 13-Jan-98
v1.0 another change to the OLM routines because of 08-Feb-98
CNet/4's new OLM handling.
