HISCORE VERSION 1.3 - Written by: Cryptic Carver
« another top up/downloaders bulletin generator for PCBoard »
─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
This program will simply creates two bulletins listing the top uploaders
and the top downloaders of your BBS.
It is really easy to install. Simply unzip the program pack wherever you
want. (in your C:\PCB dir, or in something like C:\PCB\HISCORE)
Then EDIT the config file (HISCORE.CNF). In this file, you specify where
you want the bulletins to be placed, the colors, the location of your
userfile, the name of your bbs, etc... (everything is explained in the
config file itself).
Then, you are ready to run the program (HISCORE.EXE)
In 2-3 seconds, the two bulletins will be created and placed at
the location specified in the config file.
*************************************************************************
IMPORTANT: All nodes have to be down if you want the program to work
properly. It is impossible to manipulate the userfile if the board is
loaded unless you do the following:
- You have to use a batch file that will first make a copy of your
userfile and then use this copy. Please see the HI.BAT file included
for an example. When doing this, don't forget to mention in your
config file the name of your new copied userfile.
*************************************************************************
You can arrange your BOARD.BAT so it runs the program after each call.
The file EX?.ANS are examples of bulletins created using this program.
EX1.ANS uses color #1 in config file, EX2.ANS uses color #2, etc.
> THIS PROGRAM IS TOTALLY FREE. FEEL FREE TO COPY & DISTRIBUTE IT. <
> No need to register or anything like that (so no job for you crackers on <
> this one!). I only ask you to leave the program in an unmodified form. <
> I noticed at least one sysop that removed my name from the bottom of the <
> bulletins. Personnally, I think it's kind of lame. I mean, I ask nothing <
> and the guy remove the only credit I had: my name! You know who you are. <
Oh, I almost forgot: I assume absolutely no responsability as for
the liability of this program. It works for me, it works for others,
but if it does not for you, well: no luck.
If you have any problems, comments or ideas for future versions, please
contact me.

================================[History]====================================
VERSION 0.1 BETA
-----------------
First executable version. Tested on my system.
VERSION 0.2 BETA
-----------------
Added configuration possibilities (bbs name, colors, pauses, screen
clearing).
Error in the sorting algorithm. Some users where mixed up. Fixed.
VERSION 1.00 BETA (08/03/93)
-----------------
Error in the bulletin header (some colors were bad in the logo and
there was a non-desired linefeed in the downloader bulletin). Fixed.
First public version.
VERSION 1.1 (09/10/93)
-----------
Fixed a bug where the colored bottom line was messed up when you were
creating longer bulletins (over 10 users).
Also changed the pause prompt... (now it is a real pause, with the @WAIT@
variable instead of the @MORE@ variable).
VERSION 1.2 (10/28/93)
-----------
Now allow to include/exclude sysop from the bulletins.
Changed the way to change the colors of the bulletins. Now you only have
to use one number to choose a pre-defined set of colors. You can setup
this number on line 6 of the HISCORE.CNF
VERSION 1.3 (03/14/94)
-----------
You can now choose a different number of downloaders and uploaders for
your bulletins. So if you want in your leecher's bulletin 30 users
and only 10 users in your uploader's bulletin, it is now possible.
This is configured with lines 2 and 3 in the HISCORE.CNF
There is also two new color sets (see EX7.ANS and EX8.ANS).
