Andypoo's MsgArea Editor
Ver. 5.00.
-=LICENCE=-
This software may be contributed amongst ANYONE as long as they agree with
a few rules : -
1. You *MUST* get someone to register and then you can have all my
Maximus utilities. There is a File Area Editor, Control File
Editor and much more as soon as I make it. Registration Fee is only -
$12.00 and only $10.00 if you can get someone else to register their
copy too.
Note : Though you should register, this software may be crippled :)
and you still can use it for a 30 day trial period after which, you
must register!
2. This software can not be charged money for. It may be put on a BBS
within a Membership area and it can be freely, by all means,
distributed on CD-ROM but please do not sell copies of this software!
3. If this software is to be contributed, it ***MUST*** contain this
document and the ORDER.FRM.
Those are all the conditions so besides that, you can distribute it
quite freely. It is encouraged that you distribute this software and
upload it to all your local boards.
-=SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS=-
MS-DOS 3.3 or later
Maximus BBS Software
-=HOW TO USE=-
READ/EDIT CONFIGURATION FILE! Important!!
Run from DOS... "MSGADD(.EXE)". It can be run from anywhere if you
setup "MSGADD" as an Environment label (read config file).
It is fairly straight forward to run. There are many help files
throughout this program. I have tried to make it easier, not harder,
to create extra areas in your MsgArea.Ctl MsgArea Control File.
-=PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS=-
P: When I go to list files, it just says "File Not Found" or "Invalid
Directory".
S: You have probably not setup the MAXDIR= and the MSGCTL= statements
in MSGADD.CFG, please read the config.
P: When I try and load up MSGADD.EXE, DOS Prompt just says
"Insufficient Memory".
S: You are obviously VERY low on memory. Try unloading some TSR's if
possible or edit your CONFIG.SYS file and remove some!
P: When I go to view areas, it just lists really fast and I cannot
read it!
S: This is probebly a bug, if you do come across it, leave a message to
me on a support board!
If you have any problems, just leave a message on one of my support
BBSes, listed in ANDYSNET.SIT which is in ANDYSNET.ZIP.
-=REGISTRATION=-
Registration gives you : -
* Copies of my other software
* The latest version of Andypoo's MsgArea Editor
* The Registered Version with Quick Menus
* "Andypoo" Access to my BBS (Andy's Secret BBS)
* The ownership of the software
The Registration Fee is only $12.00 (Or only $10.00, if registering with
a friend, 2 copies registered, only $10.00 each).
Please read ORDER.FRM for more info.
-=CONCLUSION=-
I hope you enjoy this software and I hope it helps you a lot. To
report any errors or anything to me, please contact me on one of my
many support BBSs. They are mainly located in Australia though there
is one in Canada, and later on will probably be a few more around.
It is probably best to call Andy's Secret BBS (61-2-790-6605) which is
my BBS, because you would get mail through the quickest.
Thankyou for supporting this software, and please register!!!
Andrew Macks.
