ABOUT ProQWK:
-------------

What does this script do?
-------------------------

    ProQWK is a little utility meant for ProComm Plus for Windows users.
We think it satisfies a need that many PC+/Win users have -- that is, to
rename QWK packets in such a manner that the user can keep many QWK packets
from the same source in their download directory at one time.  The utility
renames QWK packets so that when a download of a new QWK packet takes
place, the file transfer doesn't crash.  As well, ProQWK checks for the
existence of a file with the extension "QWK", and if it doesn't find it,
it won't rename.  Thus, users don't have to try and remember whether they
renamed their QWK files previously.
    When a user chooses to rename a series of QWK files, ProQWK will
delete the highest-numbered file that it is configured to keep for the BBS
in question.  For example, a user may have ProQWK configured to keep seven
extra QWK packets for a BBS called, oh, let's say "redeye" for example.
If the QWK file name for the BBS is "redeye", ProQWK will look for a file
named "redeye.qw6" (because the user chose seven extra packets for that
series, and ProQWK starts numbering QWK files at zero, eg., "redeye.qwO"),
and upon finding it, will delete it.  Next, it will change the name of the
file "redeye.qw5" (if found) to "redeye.qw6"; "redeye.qw4" to "redeye.qw5";
"redeye.qw3" to "redeye.qw4", and so on, until it does the last renaming,
"redeye.qwk" to "redeye.qw0".  If there was no "redeye.qwk" in the down-
load subdirectory, ProQWK will not go through this renaming procedure,
because it would be unnecessary.  Please note that each time ProQWK renames
& cycles "QWK" files (actually "QW?" files) in this manner, one file will
be deleted and each remaining "QW?" file will be bumped up one rung on
the "ladder".
    ProQWK also is designed to help out with another problem sometimes
encountered when using QWK offline readers -- when uploading a reply packet,
a user will sometimes forget whether they have already uploaded it --
ProQWK alleviates this problem by allowing users to upload, and then
delete the "REP" packet in one "motion".  They can also choose to  upload
only, or to delete only, REP packets that they wish to upload or delete.

Why bother?
-----------

    The main reason to use these utilities is to protect your QWK
packets from premature deletion.  Some users may only keep one copy of a
QWK packet for a particular BBS, read it, delete it, and then download
a new one.  ProQWK is not going to be of much use to them.  But if you
want to keep a packet from yesterday, and from a couple of days before
that (etc.), for example, you may find ProQWK useful.  You can always go
a packet or two (or up to ten) back & find those messages that you read
a few days ago.  If you don't keep multiple copies of QWK packets, once
you delete that QWK packet, it's gone, unless you have some kind of deleted
file recovery utility.  We like to think that ProQWK is a more elegant
alternative.

But doesn't Zmodem automatically rename files?
----------------------------------------------

    In many communications software programs, zmodem downloads are
automatically renamed when a file with the same name is already present in
the download subdirectory.  The standard zmodem protocol, used by ProComm
Plus for Windows, version 1.0, did not perform that function.  ProQWK 1.x was
meant to at least enable users to work around this, if they desired to keep
multiple copies of QWK files on their disk.  Due to popular demand, ProQWK 2
has been developed for users of Procomm Plus/Windows 2, since 1.x versions
will not run under this version of Procomm Plus/Win (with the exception of
ProQWK 1.3, which was written in Visual Basic ((c) Microsoft Corporation)).
While PCP/Win 2.0 will rename Zmodem downloads, a lot of users have gotten
used to using ProQWK, and version 2.0 ensures that they can continue to use
it.

How do I use it?
----------------

    Before downloading a fresh "qwk" packet for a BBS, simply choose
the "QWK" option from the main menu and select the name of the BBS whose
"qwk" packet you are about to download (ProQWK must be first set up to rename
the files for that BBS.  See section below regarding setup.).  ProQWK will
then rename the "QW?" files associated with that BBS, provided the setup
was run properly.  As well, you can delete individual QW? files using
ProQWK, rather than switching to a file management utility.

Also, as a new feature in version 2.0, you may run ProQWK as a "command-line"
program -- if you use a script that sets the predefined WASP variable, S0 to
the string value "allqwk" (case insensitive), and then launches PQ2.WAX.
Such a script is included in this archive, both in source code ("Allqwk.was")
and in wax form ("Allqwk.wax").  When ProQWK 2.0 is invoked in this manner,
it will automatically run through the renaming routine for ALL BBSes named
in the ProQWK.INI file that are properly configured, without the need for
any intervention from the user (NOTE:  Unregistered users will have to click
a button on a "nag screen" that appears after ProQWK runs -- so if you have
not registered, don't use ProQWK in this way, unless you can afford to have
it keep running until such a time as you can make the final click.).
You should not need to alter the source code at all in order to use this script,
but it has been provided for those who want to incorporate it into larger scripts
(such as late-night mail runs).

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO RENAME "QWK" PACKETS DURING A DOWNLOAD, OR WHEN A DOWNLOAD
IS IMMINENT!  THIS MAY/WILL RUIN YOUR DOWNLOAD! (You may rename "QWK" files
for BBS "A" while downloading a "QWK" file for BBS "B", but not for "A" while
downloading "A")

    We suggest assigning a Meta Key or Action Bar Icon to the "PQ2.wax"
script, in order to have ProQWK available at the touch of a button.  See your ProComm
Plus for Windows user manual, or online help for more information on setting up
Meta Keys or Action Bar icons to run scripts.

FILES NEEDED:
-------------

In order to use ProQWK Utilities, you need to have the archive,
"PROQWK20.ZIP", which includes:

    ProQWK.txt    this file
    PQ2.wax        the Windows ASPECT executable file
    Allqwk.wax     launches "command line" ProQWK session
    Allqwk.was    source code for allqwk.wax
    socsof2.nil    the icon library for ProQWK 2.0

Installation & Setup:
---------------------

    Uncompress the file "PROQWK20.ZIP" using PKZIP or other program
that can uncompress "ZIP" files.

    The only files that need to be in any specific subdirectory are
"PQ2.wax", which should be copied to the subdirectory in which ProComm
Plus for Windows 2 expects to find your Windows ASPECT scripts; and
"socsof2.nil", which should be copied to the subdirectory in which the
executable "PW2.EXE" (for ProComm Plus for Windows 2) is located (for
example "c:\prowin2").  If you wish to use the "command line" option, you will
need to copy "Allqwk.wax" to your ASPECT subdirectory, and if you wish to make
changes to "allqwk.wax", or to incorporate its source code into other scripts,
you will need to copy "allqwk.was" to your PCP/W 2 ASPECT subdirectory.

    Once the files have been placed in the proper subdirectories,
the script can be run by selecting "Scripts...Run..." from the ProComm
Plus for Windows pull-down menus, and choosing "PQ2.wax" from the list
that appears, or by launching from an Action Bar icon or a Metakey (see your
Procomm Plus/Win 2 User Manual for details).  If you have not used ProQWK before
(or if you have and your "ProQWK.ini" file has been moved, erased, or renamed),
it will ask you if you wish to go through the setup routine.  If you wish to do so,
select "Setup", and you will be taken directly to the setup routine.  If you
choose "Cancel," the script will stop running and you will either have to
find your "ProQWK.ini" file (if you have a copy in another location)
and place it in your Windows subdirectory, or run ProQWK again and choose to
go through the setup routine.

    ProQWK  will create a new file on your hard drive called
"ProQWK.ini" (I know what you're thinking: "Ugh! Not ANOTHER 'ini' file!"
But, it's not that bad! :) See "De-installing ProQWK" below.), which will
be placed in your Windows subdirectory (if it is not already there).
This file is necessary for ProQWK to read various setup information in order
to be able to execute.  Whenever you save changes to your configuration, ProQWK
will update the "ProQWK.ini" file.

Setup Options:
--------------

When you are faced with the ProQWK setup dialog box, you will need
to enter the path to your "download" subdirectory, which is where you
keep your downloaded QWK files, for example "c:\prowin2\dnload". If you
don't enter the proper path, ProQWK will not be able to rename/delete
any of your QWK type files, and will be at least 50% useless.  The same
follows for your "upload" subdirectory (eg. "c:\prowin2\upload") - if it
is incorrectly entered, ProQWK will be at least 50% useless, and if both
are mispelled, ProQWK will be at least 100% useless (grin)!  Please ensure
that both directory paths have the proper drive name, eg. C:, D:, etc.,
followed by a backslash ("\"), followed by the remainder of the path
name, but without the final backslash (examples in description above).
If you should happen to include a terminating backslash in your upload
or download path, ProQWK will inform you that you shouldn't have done
that and will remove the final backslash from your path name(s).

You will notice a check box underneath the path names, marked "Express
Option".  This will be explained further under "Using ProQWK" below.

Underneath the "Express Option" checkbox is another checkbox labelled
"Delete warning".  This option, when enabled, will ask you to confirm
file deletions before performing them.  If the checkbox is not enabled,
ProQWK will delete files without asking for confirmation.

On the right will be a message saying "You have the following BBS's set
up for ProQWK use:".  There may or may not be a list of BBS's underneath
this message, depending on whether or not you have previously set up
ProQWK to work with any particular BBS's.  If you have not, the area
below the message will be blank.

To add a bulletin board name for use by ProQWK, select the "BBS List..."
button.  This will lead you to a new dialog box called "BBS Names". You
can then enter the names of up to twelve computer bulletin boards (giving
them whatever name you wish to give them, since these names are meant for
your information) in the spaces provided.  Once you have selected "Ok", you
will then be taken to another dialog box, where you will be prompted to enter
the name of the QWK file for the BBS in question.  Please be sure to enter
the EXACT name of the QWK files for that BBS -- that is, whatever that BBS
calls its own QWK files.  This name should not include any paths, nor should
it include the extension ".qwk", since this will be taken care of by ProQWK
when it runs.  If the file name is not correctly entered, ProQWK will not be
able to rename the "QWK" packets in question.  This dialog will also ask you
for the number of EXTRA "QWK" packets you wish to keep on hand for the BBS in
question.  Note that this means that if you enter "1", you will have as
many as 2, and as few as 1 (or zero, if you manually delete them) QWK
files for that BBS in your download subdirectory at any one time.
Similarly, if you enter 2, you will have up to 3 files, and if you enter
3, you will have up to 4 files, and so on.  You may choose to keep as
many as 11 "QWK" files for a BBS BY CHOOSING "10" for this entry.
When you are finished, select "Done", and ProQWK will cycle to the next
BBS for which you need to enter information, or it will return you to
the "ProQWK Setup" dialog when you have configured the last BBS that
you wish to modify.

Once you are satisfied with the setup information you have entered,
choose "Save-Exit" in the "ProQWK Setup" dialog. ProQWK will then save
your settings/changes and you will be returned to the ProQWK main menu
(or taken there for the first time, if you have not used ProQWK before).

If you do not want to save any changes you have made, or if you do not
want to make any changes, select "Exit" in the Setup menu, and you
will be taken to the main menu.

From the Setup menu, you may also choose to enter your registration name
and number, allowing you to run ProQWK without the delay and "nag screen"
displayed upon exiting ProQWK.

De-installing ProQWK (with apologies to grammarians)
----------------------------------------------------

To remove ProQWK, you need only erase the files:
    "PQ2.wax"    in your PCP/Windows 2 ASPECT subdirectory;
    "allqwk.wax"    and
    "allqwk.was"     in your PCP/Windows 2 ASPECT subdirectory (if present);
    "ProQWK.ini"    in your Windows subdirectory;
    "ProQWK.txt"     (this file) wherever you put it;
and    "socsof2.nil"    in your ProComm Plus for Windows subdirectory.
    That's it!  No changes to your Autoexec.bat, config.sys, Win.ini
        or System.ini files whatsoever!  Now, doesn't that sound
        simple? (rhetorical question!)

RUNNING ProQWK:
---------------

From the main menu (entitled "ProQWK Utilities"), you may choose from 5
different options:

    QWK files...
    REP files...
    Setup...
    Quit
    About ProQWK Utilities

QWK files:

Choosing this option and checking the name of a BBS (or the "All
of the above option") enables the user of ProQWK to rename their QWK
packets in such a way that the oldest file(s) will be deleted, and all
newer ones will be renamed in such a manner that the extension of each
"QWK" file will be changed to ".qw0", ".qw1", ".qw2", ".qw3", and so on,
the highest number depending on the number of QWK packets to be kept as
determined during the BBS setup procedure (see "installation" above).
The lower the number in a file extension for files renamed by this
utility, the newer the file.  The newest file will have an extension
of ".qw0", unless the file(s) for the BBS in question have not been
renamed since the last QWK packet was downloaded, in which case the
newest file will bear the extention ".QWK".  When the "Ok" button is
selected in the "Rename QWK packets..." dialog, the script will execute
the renaming for the BBS(s) in question if and only if there is a mail
packet for the BBS with the extension ".qwk" present in the download
subdirectory.  Otherwise, it will not perform the rename for that BBS.
When multiple BBS's are chosen, or when "All of the above" is chosen,
the script will check for the ".qwk" extension for each BBS separately.
In this way, you do not have to worry about whether or not you are
deleting a file each time whether it is necessary or not, since if it
is not necessary (i.e. there is no ".qwk" file), nothing will be renamed
(or deleted) for that BBS.  Once the QWK files are renamed, you will be
either returned to the main menu (if "Express" is not checked), or the
script will turn itself off (if "Express" is checked).  See the information
regarding the "Express" option further on.
    If you select "Cancel", ProQWK will return to the
main menu without performing any renaming or deleting.
    If you select "Delete files...", you will be presented with a new
dialog box asking you to select a QWK file to delete.  The default download
directory's "QW?" files will be listed.  You may select one or more files to
delete (holding down the "CTRL" key while selecting a file will add it to
the selections, while holding down the "Shift" key will select a file along
with all files between it and a previous selection).  If you press "Cancel"
you will be returned to the main menu (if the "Express" option is disabled),
or ProQWK will exit (if "Express" is enabled).  If a file(s) is/are
selected, "delete warning" is enabled, and the "Delete" key is pressed,
you will be asked to confirm each deletion, and given one last chance to
change your mind (if "Delete warning" is disabled, the files will be deleted
without your being prompted to confirm the deletions).

NOTE: The default under the "QWK files" menu is "OK", which means that
if you make a selection and press [ENTER], ProQWK will behave as if you
clicked on "OK" with your mouse.

REP files:
    Choosing "REP files..." from the main menu will lead you
to the dialog box, "REP Management", which will allow you to do one of
three things with your "REP" files:

    1) Upload
    2) Upload & delete
    3) Delete

In order to do any of these three things, you must first select a REP
file from the list box on the left, and select the "Ok" button, or simply
double-click on the REP file you want to process.

If no REP files appear in the "REP files..." menu, you have either not
entered the proper "upload" subdirectory in ProQWK setup, or have changed
the subdirectory in the list box, or you currently have no "REP" files
in that subdirectory.

Note that an icon will be displayed which represents which of the three
options are selected -- an "up arrow" & envelope for "upload", an
"up arrow"/envelope with a small "bomb" superimposed for "upload & delete,"
and a somewhat larger "bomb" for "delete."  As the selection is changed,
so is the icon.  If you do not see the icon(s), you probably have not put
the icon file, "socsof2.nil" in the proper subdirectory.  If you don't want to use
the icons, you will have to either move the icon file to a different directory or
rename or delete it, but note that in the process you will lose ALL of the icons
that ProQWK uses.

The options that perform a file upload (the first two) are meant to be
used only while you are online to a bulletin board.  You may change the
transfer protocol before sending the file.  The default transfer protocol
will be the one designated in your dialing directory for the BBS you are
connected with.  You may change the transfer protocol to any protocol recognized
by ProComm Plus for Windows by selecting the "Change protocol" combobox, which will
present a drop-down list of available protocols (note that this will not change the
default protocol for the BBS in your dialing directory -- it only enables the selected
file to be sent via the selected protocol).  To select a new protocol, simply point
and click.

The plain "upload" option simply sends the file to the remote host
BBS, and warns you if the upload fails.  The "upload & delete" option will
do the same as the "upload" option,and then ask you whether you wish to
delete the file, if "delete warn" is enabled.  It will NOT ask to delete the
file if the upload is not successful.  It's a good idea to wait for the bulletin
board you are online to to inform you of whether your REP packet messsages have
been sent to the proper message areas successfully BEFORE you confirm that you
want to delete the REP packet (provided, of course, that "Delete warn" is enabled).
Once you have been satisfied that your messages are on their way, you can
then erase them with relative peace of mind.  We recommend using the
"upload & delete" option to make it easier to keep track of which REP packets
you have already uploaded - you can upload & delete all at once so you don't
have to ask yourself a day or two later, "Now, did I send that mail packet yet
or not?"  Of course, if you select the "upload" only option, you will still
have to somehow remember when you uploaded your packets (darn!).

The third option, "Delete", when selected will delete the selected REP
packet.  If you enabled "Delete warning" under the setup, you will be
prompted before ProQWK deletes the file.

ProQWK will default to the option of the three above that was selected the
last time you used the "REP Management" option.  For instance, if you
select a REP file, and choose "Upload & delete", the next time you use
ProQWK, "Upload & delete" will be the default selection.

If you delete a REP packet by mistake, you can probably still recover it,
if you have some kind of deleted file recovery utility on your computer.
If you choose "Ok" without highlighting a REP packet, ProQWK will
tell you so.

After the actions described above have taken place, the script will return
to the main menu, if the "Express" option is not selected, or shut itself
off, if the "Express" option has been selected (see the section about the
"Express" option further along).

NOTE:  The default for the "REP Management" window is "OK", which means
that if you double-click on a REP filename, ProQWK will automatically
perform the action by the designated radiobutton on the right (using
the specified transfer protocol, if either of the first two radiobuttons
are chosen).

Setup:    Described above.

Quit:    Exits script (who would've guessed?)

About ProQWK Utilities:

    Choosing this button will invoke a dialog containing some
information about ProQWK and how to register (see Registering ProQWK below)!

"Express" Option:

    We figured that this script should run as unobtrusively as
possible, so we included a feature called "Express".  When the "Express"
checkbox is selected, the script will quickly (QWKly?) exit after
performing QWK or REP file functions.  In this way, you have a nice
little utility that does its thing with QWK's or REP's and then gets
the heck out of the way when finished, enabling you to get on with
your online business.  The status of "Express" will remain the same the
next time the program is run, i.e. once selected, it is always selected,
until the status is changed to "off", when it will remain unselected.  If
you want to return to the main menu after performing a QWK or REP
function, remember to uncheck the "Express" feature if it is checked (if
there is an "X" inside the checkbox).

Corollary to the above, if you have "Delete warning" disabled, you
will be able to exit even more quickly if you are performing any kind
of file deletion.  This is meant to enhance the flow of ProQWK.

Command Line
------------

As a "command-line" utility, you may run ProQWK by launching it from another
PCP/W 2 WAX file, if you use a script that sets the predefined WASP variable, S0 to
the string value "allqwk" (case insensitive), and then launches PQ2.WAX.
"Allqwk.wax" does just this, and is included in the archive, as is the source
code, "Allqwk.was".

When ProQWK 2.0 is invoked in this manner,it will automatically run through the
renaming routine for ALL BBSes named in the ProQWK.INI file that are properly
configured, without the need for any intervention from the user (NOTE:
Unregistered users will have to click a button on a "nag screen" that appears
after ProQWK runs -- so if you have not registered, don't use ProQWK in this way,
unless you can afford to have it keep running until such a time as you can make
the final click.).  You should not need to alter the source code at all in order
to use this script, but it has been provided for those who want to incorporate
it into larger scripts (such as late-night mail runs).

It is suggested that you run ProQWK normally and make sure things are set up the
way you want them before using the "command line" option.

    - protocol selection now takes place under "REP" management
    module.  Default protocol (for each BBS according to the dialing
    directory)is used, but user may change when
    selecting file for download, as with PC+/Win regular d/l's.
    - Fixed bug for restarting the protocol selection process when
    a file transfer fails
    - prettied up the setup dialog - centered BBS names - before
    they were left-aligned
    - users can now get rid of the "protocol" section entirely from
    "proqwk.ini"
    - removed forced delay between uploading & deleting rep files
