; TIMECHEK v1.0 Sample control file
;
;
; This is the general format of TIMECHEK's control file. Comments
; such as this may be included as long as there is a semi-colon in
; the leftmost column. An asterisk "*" may also be used for a comment
; line but I suggest you DON'T use it. TIMECHEK uses the asterisk to
; comment out a user name that has been modified. This is so TIMECHEK
; won't waste its time on that user again and you can see which users
; have been down/upgraded. If you use asterisks to comment the file,
; it could cause confusion (to you, not TIMECHEK!).
;
; Blank lines are NOT permitted.
;
; This file may have 500 lines MAXIMUM.
;
; MAXIMUM line length is 100 characters.
;
; The format of the data line is very important as you can imagine.
; The users name must be left justified and at this point in time, user
; names in the form - firstname lastname - are the only acceptable
; form. If you allow single word names/handles... sorry, it won't
; work with this program. Also, Firstname Lastname must be separated
; by ONE SPACE. No more, no less.
;
; Case is unimportant anywhere within the data line. It can be upper or
; lower or a mix of both.
;
; The DATE format is *VERY* important. It must be as shown in the examples
; below. 1-10-88, 1/10/88 or anything other than what is shown below is
; *NOT* acceptable. Of course, your computer should have the current date
; set so things work as expected. If the date in a data line matches or
; is earlier than the system date, the users security/flags will be set as
; per the remainder of the data.
;
; TIMECHEK at the very least expects to reset the users security level.
;
; This means that you must include a security level. Flags are not
; necessary but up to 8 flags may be set according to your instructions.
; The method of designating flags is just like QuickBBS's SETFLAG option
; in it's questionnaire language. *DO NOT* use the word SETFLAG though.
; "A1 OFF" will set the first position of flag A to OFF. "A 1 OFF" will
; cause TIMECHEK to gag (note the space between the A and the 1). Order
; is not important. You can list the D flag settings, then the A flag
; settings, or any order you desire.
;
; Any amount of spaces or tabs may be used between each field of the data
; line BUT all the data must be on one line. This doesn't mean you are
; restricted to 80 characters. Each line can be up to 100 characters and
; must be terminated by a carriage return. Lines longer than 80 characters
; may look funny if you TYPE the control file from DOS, but this is not
; important to TIMECHEK.
;
; Usernames that don't exist in USERS.BBS are not reported, but they will
; be commented out if you use the '-C' command line switch or deleted
; from this file if you don't use the '-C'switch.
;
; Below is what a typical control file would look like
;
; User On Set Set
; Name This Date Level to Flags
;-----------------------------------------------------
;
;
Mike Janke 11/20/88 10 b1 off b2 off b3 off A1 ON
;
Vernon Six 10-22-88 56
;
;
; Date Format * MUST * be in the form MM/DD/YY or MM-DD-YY
;
;
; This is what a username looks like in the control file
; after TIMECHEK modifies his record if you use the '-C' switch --+
; |
* John Doe 07/10/88 20 A1 OFF <-----------------------------+
;
; If you DON'T use the command line '-C' switch, when a user is
; downgraded they are removed completely from this control file.
