USAGE: PCBUPLD [col]
col .... The column you want the string to start at. For
DIRx files this will be column 34.
PCBUPLD.EXE will send the string "Uploaded by: user name (security level)" to
the standard output. An example output follows:
Uploaded by: Bill Shields (110)
Showing that I uploaded a file and I have security level 110. This was
designed for a fellow SYSOP who had a requirement for such a utility.
Hopefully it will be of use to you also.
An example of how you can apply this follows:
1) Turn off the "uploaded by" option in PCBSETUP.
2) Modify the PCBTEST.BAT file to hold the following line
PCBUPLD 34 >> UPDESC.%PCBNODE%
3) Your done....
TECHNICAL NOTES:
The program has no bells nor whistles. Basically it reads the PCBOARD.SYS
file for the current users name and record number. It then reads PCBOARD.DAT
for the location of the USERS file and reads in the specified record from the
USERS file. The information is sent to standard output.
The DEMO program included assumes that you have a PCBOARD.SYS file available
with a users information. PCBOARD.DAT was be available as well.
