[opPAGE5 ] [SysOp.DOC - 05/27/96]
[══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════]
Q. opPAGE5 - What is it?
A. Operator Page Replacment Module for Wildcat! v5 SysOps!
Q. What does it do?
A. Requests a reason from a user before paging the sysop, if none
is given, the program ends and the sysop is left undisturbed.
Q. What features does it have?
A. Optional warning beeps to let the sysop know someone has entered
opPAGE (in case you need to turn your monitor on, or stop playing
a game). Personalized messages to send users before and after paging.
All reasons are logged to the node's Activity Log for review.
Q. Are you going to add anything else to it?
A. Yes, eventually it will have many (if not all or more) of the same
features in my Wildcat v4 version. It's not even close to finished!
Please read WHATS.NEW to see the latest additions!
[ SETUP: ]══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Place the OPPAGE.WCX and OPPAGE.CFG files in your Wildcat 5 home directory,
(usually C:\WC5). Be sure to edit the configuration file to your liking.
Run wcMENU and replace the "Page the Sysop" menu option (on the Main Menu)
with OPPAGE. Be sure to verify security access before closing. Save, and
logon to try it out! You're all set!
* Note: *
Please see the READ.ME file included in the PROMPTS.ZIP! Unless you have
already added @CLS@ to the beginning of the SysopWelcomeChat1.PRM prompt,
your screen will not be cleared upon entering chat mode. Prompts are
included to make life a little easier. :>
[ REGISTRATION: ]═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Q. Why should I register?
A. You will be entitled to all upgrades free. It will remove the nag
delay. I will work harder on new versions knowing that I am supported
and appreciated. :>
To register, simply complete the REGISTER.ME form included (or send the
equivalent, legible information if no printer is available) and your
registration fee to:
Corinne King <- Checks payable to

Arab, AL 35016
[ OPPAGE.CFG EXPLANATION: ]════════════════════════════════════════════════]
The configuration file is fairly self-explanatory, however, sometimes it
easier if said twice. :>
Line 1: Registration Number, enter 0 (zero) if unregistered.
Enter a -1 if you would like a beep to warn you, or enter
a 0 (zero) to turn it off.
Line 2: Warning beep if user enters opPAGE (true [-1]/false [0])
Lines 3 & 4 appear on the first screen below the user iput for
a reason. You can advertise here, of give additional help,
color codes may also be used, but remember to add as many spaces
as are in the color code. Example, if using @0F@ (bright white)
then add four blank space in the beginning so it will be centered.
Line 3: Pre-page message (#1), before sending page.
Line 4: Pre-page message (#2), before sending page.
Lines 5 & 6 appear on the second screen below the reason. The
user can read this while waiting for you to answer - modify as
desired/needed.
Line 5: Post-page message (#1), after sending page.
Line 6: Post=page message (#2), after sending page.
Color codes are listed on pages 373 (System & User Defined Color Codes)
and 380 (Standard Color Codes) in your Reference Guide. Black backgrounds
look best.
