ANSIChat v1.3
The Original STUNY ANSIChat!
Date: 7/22/92 - v1.0 released
Date: 8/16/92 - v1.1 released
Date: 9/4/92 - v1.2 - included .OBJ modules for QB45 and PB v7.1

ANSIChat:
This mod consists of a set of merges for the original RBBS code. Two versions
of the ANSIChat are included. The names of the files are: VCHAT.BAS and
HCHAT.BAS. VCHAT.BAS is the vertical ANSI SysOp chat version and HCHAT.BAS is
the horizontal ANSI SysOp version. When compiling only one of these files will
be used. Select whichever version you desire and rename that file to
ANSICHAT.BAS.
To install, you must first install the mods to the corresponding RBBS subs.
If you have installed any mods which access the same line numbers as these mods,
you will have to install the modifications by hand. If you are installing
ANSIChat as the only mod, you can use Ken Goosens BLED v2.2 to do this for you.
A batch file is included which will perform the mods to the software for you.
You must add the variable ZANSITest to your RBBS-VAR.BAS file. Once the mods
are installed, you must recompile and link in the usual manner. Don't forget
to add the ANSICHAT.OBJ file to your link data file. The recommended switches
for compiling the ANSICHAT.BAS module are:
QB45 - BC ANSICHAT.BAS,ANSICHAT,NUL,/X/O/C:1024/E/MBF;
BASIC v7.1 - BC /O /FPa /G2 /Ot /MBF /C:1024 ANSICHAT.BAS,ANSICHAT.OBJ;
The ANSI Chat is activated in either of two ways. If RBBS auto detects ANSI
or if the user has his/her graphics set to anything other than "NONE", RBBS
will use the ANSIChat routines. If ANSI is not detected, or the user has
his/her graphics set to none, the original RBBS routine will be used.
This package contains the following files.
R-PCCHAT.MRG - merge for RBBS-PC.BAS
RSB2CHAT.MRG - merge for RBBSSUB2.BAS
RSB3CHAT.MRG - merge for RBBSSUB3.BAS
RSB5CHAT.MRG - merge for RBBSSUB5.BAS
HCHAT.BAS - Horizontal ANSIChat
VCHAT.BAS - Vertical ANSIChat
RBBS-VAR.NEW - replacement for RBBS-VAR.BAS
CHAT174.BAT - Batch file to install mods
CHAT174.DOC - these docs
8/16/92 v1.1 - Reenabled the arrow keys to permit the SysOp to raise or lower
the users security level or time within the chat.
9/4/92 v1.2 - Included .OBJ modules for QB45 and PB v7.1
10/1/92 v1.3 - Included source files, changed routines to tighten code.
Feedback is most important! We hope you enjoy this mod. If you simply must
