DESCRIPTION:
Welcome to TriBBS User Manager (TRIUSE.COM). TRIUSE is designed to run only
with TriBBS version 5.0 or higher. If you are using a lower version of
TriBBS do not try to use TRIUSE.
TRIUSE is a way of managing your user records and creating reports containing
user information. With TRIUSE you may view or edit information about any user
on the BBS. The first time TRIUSE is run two new files will be created in the
default directory (TU.ADD and TU.CFG). Each sequent time TRIUSE is run
ADD.OLD will be created.
The reports generated can be sent to the screen, printer, or a file on disk.
Listed below are the standard reports.
[1] A listing of all users A listing of all users on the BBS
[2] Address of users A listing of users name, street
address city, state and zip code
[3] Phone numbers of users A listing of users name and phone
number
[4] Subscription dates of users A listing of users name and the date
his subscription expires
When View/Edit is selected from the Main Menu you will be asked to select
either a user by name or number. If you are entering a user name you may enter
the full name or part of a name. TRIUSE will search for a match of what was
entered. [NOTE: You do not need to enter the full name. Triuse will search for
a match of that part of the name that was entered. If you enter "PA" triuse
will find "Pall, Pat, or Palmer" selecting the first match found.] Also, if
the user was selected you will be allowed to view the next match of the same
entry. When editing names or numbers, or dates, if a Carriage Return is
entered as the first character no change will be made. If you wish to remove
a date (make it blank) you may enter "C" as the first entry. If a change is
made (Edit) it may be saved. However, you may also select not to save the
edited information.

INSTILLATION:
1. Start the instillation by placing all files into a directory. I find it
helps to place each BBS utility or door into its own directory. This
allows you to keep in one place all the files needed for any utility or
door.
2. Change to the directory containing TRIUSE.
3. Execute TRIUSE by entering TRIUSE at the prompt. TRIUSE will prompt
you for the path to your MWORK directory. Additional files will be
created as they are needed. Always execute TRIUSE from only the directory
it is located in.
SPECIAL NOTE:
TRIUSE can be used to modify your USERS.DAT file in the MWORK directory. As
a precaution always make a backup of all USERS files in the MWORK directory
to prevent accidental losing users.
