WHOSTAT v4.01
The files and programs included in the origional STATS401.ZIP archive are not
garanteed to do anything execpt take up disk space in your main BBS directory.
Installation and operation is at YOUR OWN RISK!
WHOSTATS is a statistical analysis bulletin generator written for WILDCAT!
4.x systems. This archive should have the following files.
WHOSTATS EXE Nightly Stat Generator
STATKEY JWH Registration Key
WHOSTATS DOC This Document
STATSTRT EXE Initial Start/Reset Program
STATCFG JWH Configuration File
STATS JWH Monthly/YTD Stats File
This system is designed so the SysOp will include WHOSTATS.EXE in their
nightly batch file, (Should be executed as close to midnight as possible).
the program is setup to zero out it's own files when the first of the month is
sensed or the first of the year comes around. It can, keep track of your
systems stats if you delete your ACTIVITY.### nightly or monthly. At the
start of a new month or year it will zero out either the current month or the
Year To Date stats as directed in the STATCFG.JWH file. Upon completion of
it's nightly run it will create a bulletin of your choice or you may select to
use WCPRO.BBS as I do, and have Stats available from your Main Menu.
Set up of STATCFG.JWH
01/01/95; Date the system was last reset. This will be
displayed on each bulletin so each viewer will see
when the YTD stats were last reset.
The Midnight Cafe' BBS; The Name of your BBS
192834; DON'T touch!!
c:\wc30\stats.jwh; Complete Path and name of file containing the
system stats. This is the Monthly and YTD information.
c:\wc30\wcpro.bbs; Complete Path and File Name for the results of each
nights stats run is placed here. Again, name the file
what ever you wish.
M; D/M/N are valid switch settings;
D if you delete your ACTIVITY.### file daily
(preferably after each nightly run of WHOSTATS). The
system will still Reset the Current Month information
on the First of the Month, and reset both the Current
Month and YTD information on the first of the year.
M will perform the same function as above, but the
montly data will not update to the YTD till the
beginning of a new month.
N is the same as D but it will NOT clear out the YTD
collumns till you run STATSTRT.EXE.
c:\wc30\activity Finally this is then complete PATH and file for the
system to find the ACTIVITY.### file. Do not include
the .### that identifies the node number.
1 Number of active nodes. This is for single user systems
or multi user systems. The system must be told howmany
ACTIVITY.### files exist on your BBS.
Initial setup of the file is easy;
1> BACKUP your system, then copy all files to your main BBS Directory,
I have the files in my Wildcat directory.
2> Edit then STATCFG.JWH file to fit your systems individual design.
3> Run STATSTRT.EXE to create a stats database.
4> Make a hard copy, or disk copy of this doc file for later reference.
5> Set up a nightly batch file, or add WHOSTATS.EXE to your existing
nightly batch file. WHOSTATS should be run as soon after midnight
as possible.
6> The STATCFG.JWH and STATKEY.JWH files should be placed in the same
directory as WHOSTATS.EXE is in.
7> Sit back and watch the pretty stats.
