- STATEMENT OF PURPOSE:
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Renegade File List compiler was created to fill a void in file
- list programs. There seems to be a LOT of utilities out there
- to create a file list for Renegade BBS sysops, but most are
- either crippled or run much too slowly with ugly displays.
- I decided to write this program one day to use only for my BBS
- but I liked it so much that I thought I should share it freely
- with others.
-
-
- FEATURES:
- ~~~~~~~~
- o Creates a SELECTIVE list of files. SysOp may choose which
- areas to list and which not to list.
-
- o No messy command line parameters to decipher or learn! One
- config file is all you'll ever need.
-
- o Simple to install and execute.
-
- o Uses an external header so that you may customize your file
- list with a design of your choice!
-
- o Uses EXTENDED descriptions.
-
- o List number of times file was downloaded.
-
- o Automatically compresses list using ZIP or ARJ with maximum
- compression. [optional as of v1.60]
-
- o Checks integrity of compressed archive after processing.
-
- o Adds it's own FILE_ID.DIZ / DESC.SDI during compression.
-
- o Turbo speed processing.
-
- o Built-in defaults for easy setup.
-
- o CD-Rom and No Ratio detection for display.
-
- o SysOp configurable setup.
-
- o Allows unlimited filelists with multiple configurations.
-
- o Will update your RG BBS file description, file size & date.
-
- o Automatic backup of extended.dat file.
-
- o FREE FREE FREE !! No crippleware or non-registered delays!

-
- SETUP:
- ~~~~~
- The following files are included in this archive:
-
- RGFLCO.EXE - The actual executable program.
-
- RGFLCO.DOC - What you're reading now.
-
- RGFLCFG.EXE - Creates the config file.
-
- *RGFLCO.CFG - The configuration file.
-
- HEADER.ASC - Sample header file for file list.
-
- POLICY.PSI - PSI Policy statement. ASCII text file.
-
- FILE_ID.DIZ - Description used by some BBS software.
-
- WHATS.NEW - IMPORTANT changes in this version.
-
- * Created when program is run.
-
- Place all the files into a directory of your choice then run
- the configuration program, RGFLCFG. Your config files as well
- as any external FILE_ID.DIZ or DESC.SDI must reside in the
- same directory as the executable program.
-
- You will be prompted for the full path and location of your
- RENEGADE.DAT file, the name of the file list to create and
- your compressor choice (ARJ/ZIP) as well as the full path to
- create the ARCHIVE you want.
-
- You'll then be able to toggle ON/OFF some of the program's
- features.
-
- A list of file directories will then appear. You will first be
- prompted for the directory in which you would like the archive
- to appear. If you wish to have the files listed in that directory
- then reply with "Y".
-
- Then run RGFLCO CONFIG_FILENAME and the archive will be created
- in the directory you specified for it.
-
- USAGE:
- ~~~~~
- RGFLCO CONFIG_FILENAME.EXT
-
- That's all you need. The config file may be edited with any
- ASCII editor. The format is as follows:
-
- Line #
- 1. Path to RENEGADE.DAT file.
- 2. Path and name of header file.
- 3. Name of filelist to create.
- 4. Name of archive to create without extension or path.
- 5. Archive compressor chosen. A=ARJ, Z=ZIP, N=NONE
- 6. Extended descriptions toggle. Y=Yes, N=No
- 7. Times d/l listed toggle.
- 8. Use DESC.SDI in file toggle.
- 9. Generate .DIZ and .SDI files internally toggle.
- 10. Place blank line between descriptions toggle.
- 11. Number of days within which to list files.
- 12. File area to place archive.
- 13. List of file areas that will not be compiled.
-
- ** The above format is slightly different from v0.02. If you are
- using v0.02 please delete the old config file and run the NEW
- RGFLCFG to create a new file.
-
- ** If you're upgrading from any version prior to v1.31 then you
- must delete your old config file and re-run the config utility
- because the config file format was changed again in v1.31!
-
- ** Version 1.30 has a major bug! DON'T DISTRIBUTE OR RUN THAT
- VERSION. Version 1.31 fixes that bug.
