-
- SCANLIST is a simple "look-up" utility used in conjunction with the RCPM-nnn
- list file distributed every month by Jud Newell, Mark Rippe, and myself.
-
- SCANLIST will allow you to quickly search the list by:
-
- * areacode,
- * system name, or
- * state
-
-
- * AREACODE *
-
- The areacode look-up function is the simplest to use, just enter the 3-digit
- areacode number you desire and all listings will be displayed one-at-a-time
- fashion until you eof or quit manually.
-
-
- * SYSTEM NAME *
-
- The search by system name function allows you to input a system name if less
- then 12 characters in length, if longer only the first 12 are accepted.
- SCANLIST will show any matches one-at-a-time fashion until eof or you
- manually abort with ^C during a search or with a "n"o answer to the continue
- prompt.
-
-
- * STATE *
-
- The search by state is exactly that, you input the state desired and all
- listings will be shown one screenful at a time with a y/n to continue prompt.
- If you input CALIFORNIA, you will be further prompted for Northern or
- Southern areas before the searching begins.
-
-
- All three search options allow for the output to be sent to the CRT screen
- or optionally to the printer for permanent hardcopy listings.
-
-
- Modifications:
-
- The default filename is located at hex address 270B thru 2716
-
- It is currently: RCPM-073.LST
-
- You may change this with DDT, PATCH, or DU to whatever you desire or leave it
- as-is and change your actual disk filename for the current RCPM-nnn.LST name.
-
- SCANLIST will attempt to open the file RCPM-073.LST on the current drive/user
- and if it fails to find that particular filename, it then prompts you for the
- drive and filename you wish to use. If it finds and opens the default file
- then operation is quicker and you aren't hassled for a filename everytime.
-
-

- ! SCANLIST v2.1 will only work with the format of RCPM-073.LST or later. !
