-
- DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF BBSLIST.CNF CONFIGURATION ITEMS (LINES)
-
- Line 1: Whatever you wish to call your BBS List! Recommended names are;
- your BBS Name followed by the words BBSList. This will allow you
- to personalize this door for your system.
-
- Line 2: FileName you wish to use to store the BBS entries. This is the file
- which callers will be allowed to add their NEW entries into. Please
- note that you may edit the file with any Text Editor. The listing
- {for convinience purposes} is kept in a standard ASCII / TEXT file!
-
- Line 3: Path and Filename of util & Paramaters which BBSList will use to
- sort the listing. (Qsort recommended for this feature). If you
- do not make Qsort available then the listing will not be Sorted
- after each new entry!
-
- Line 4: Each feature inside the BBSList has a Title. IE --> if a caller uses
- the ADD command to ADD a NEW entry, BBSList correctly displays to the
- caller what part of the door they are currently in, you may wish to
- personalize these titles even more by changing the color code here.
- Any valid PCBoard color code is fine. NOTE! (FYI) you may have
- each feature CLEAR the screen as well, if you wish to do this in
- this field simply enter a; @cls@ followed by a valid PCBoard color
- code! For example; @CLS@@X0E would clear the screen and properly
- display the current feature title to the caller in the color which
- is selected right after the CLS code.
-
- Line 5: BBSList Main Prompt (Whatever you wish). Recommended is something
- simple but meaninfull, the default provided with this door is;
- (TimeLeft min Left) -> BBSList Command?
- ******NOTE****** That you have to add a question mark (?) at the
- end of this prompt in the CNF file!!!! This is of course if you
- wish to use a question mark. It is recommended that you do provide
- it at the end of the prompt however some sysops prefer to use some
- other character to signal end of the prompt and therefore this
- option of not / or using a question mark at the end of the prompt
- is included here for that reason alone.
-
- Line 6: BBSList SEARCH list for matches (text search) prompt
-
- Line 7: BBSList "Press [Enter] to continue" prompt message.
- Note that a '?' is automatically appended to the end of this
- prompt by PCBoard.
-
- Line 8: Show (Loading BBSList) when door is loaded 0=No, 1=Yes
- When a caller selects to run the BBSlist from within PCBoard you
- can instruct the caller by having BBSlist display a message similar
- to this; "Loading BBSList . . ." However you may also disable
- this by entering a Zero in this Configuration option line.
