                    Local File -- Name and Ext
                    --------------------------

 You  may use this to make uploading several different files from
 your system (local files) to several GEnie forums, all using the
 same in the forums.

 For instance, you may have a file on your system named local.arc
 and wish to upload it without renaming it.  Enter  the  name  of
 the  file in the Local File name and extension fields and choose
 an appropriate name for GEnie for the upload file.

 Using this example,

            Local File          Upload File
            Name     Ext        Name   Ext
            
            LOCAL.ARC           UPLOAD.ARC
                                                <PgDwn> for [MORE]


 Ease-Up would write a script that would send LOCAL.ARC from your
 system to GEnie.  The file would be named UPLOAD.ARC on GEnie.

 The entry  of  a local file name is not required.  You may leave
 the field empty and Ease-Up will use the file name and extension
 from the Upload File field for the name of the local file.

*file_name_fld

                         Upload File Name
                         ────────────────
 <Required>

 Enter name  that you want GEnie to use for your file, without the
 extension. This  may be a  different name from  the file on  your
 system (see  Local File above) if  you choose.  If  you leave the
 Local  File name  and extension  blank, this  entry (Upload File)
 will be used for the local file.

*fnam_ext_fld

                       Upload File Name Ext
                       ────────────────────

 When you enter the EXT field for the first time you are presented
 with a pop of choice list  of common filename extensions. You may
 choose  one of  the listed  extensions, or  press the  ESC key to
 close the list and enter an extension of your choice.

 Ease-Up will check the your entry to make sure that it is a legal
 file  name  extension.    If  your  entry  contains  any  illegal
 characters, Ease-Up will tell you  which character must be edited
 and return you to the field.   Ease-Up will not accept an illegal
 file  name extension,  so you  should make  the corrections  when
 prompted.

*forum_name_fld

                            Forum Name
                            ──────────
 <Required>

 When you first enter the Forum  Name field, you will be presented
 with a choice list of many of the forum names on GEnie.Choosing a
 name from the  list will automatically enter that  forum into the
 Forum Name field.  The list  is not all-inclusive and some listed
 services may not in fact have libraries. Be sure you are familiar
 with the forum  you select. If the forum you  are uploading to is
 not in the  list, simply press the ESC key  to close the list and
 enter the forum name in the field.

*forum_lib_fld

                          Library Number
                          ──────────────
 <Required>

 With  all forums, it is necessary to choose a particular library
 in which your file will be uploaded.  Ease-Up includes a list of
 libraries for several of the popular forums on GEnie.    If  the
 forum  you  chose  in  the Forum Name field has its library list
 included with Ease-Up, you will be presented with this list when
 you enter the LIB field.  The libraries  are  listed  by  number
 with a short description of each, as provided by GEnie.

 If you have chosen a forum which Ease-Up does not have a library
 list  for,  Ease-Up will beep once when you enter this field and
 display the message "No choices available".  You may then  enter
 the library  number  into  the  field.  Be sure to enter a valid
 library number for the forum.  An invalid  library  number  will
 cause the script to fail online.

*term_prog_fld

                         Terminal Program
                         ────────────────
 <Required>

 When you  first enter this  field, you will  be presented with  a
 choice  list  of  the  terminal  programs  that Ease-Up supports.
 Simply choose  the program for  which you wish  the upload script
 generated.

 The  Upload  Path  field will  behave differently, depending on
 which terminal program you choose.

*scrpt_nam_fld

                            Script Name
                            ───────────
 <Required>

 Enter the  file name for  the script you  are generating. Do  not
 enter an extension. Ease-Up will  append the proper extension for
 the terminal program you chose to the script name you enter.

 Ease-Up will check the your entry to make sure that it is a legal
 file name. If your entry contains any illegal characters, Ease-Up
 will tell  you which character must  be edited and return  you to
 the field. Ease-Up  will not accept an illegal  file name, so you
 should make the corrections when prompted.

 Ease-up will check  the current directory for a  script file with
 the same  name that you  enter. If the  file exists, you  will be
 advised of  this by a  message window. You  may continue and  the
 existing  script file  will be  overwritten, or  you may edit the
 Script Name to create a new file.

*upl_path_fld

                            Upload Path
                            ───────────

 This field is only available if you  are  generating  an  upload
 script for  use  with  PROCOMM  PLUS or XTALK4.  You may enter a
 value here manually or use the command line option -p (see Usage
 above).  An upload path entered on the command line is  editable
 here.

 The  path should  be the  complete DOS  path to  the file you are
 uploading, less the file name itself.

    Example: D:\UPLOADS

 Ease-Up will check the your entry to make sure that it is a legal
 file path name.   If your entry contains  any illegal characters,
 Ease-Up will tell  you which character must be  edited and return

                                                <PgDwn> for [MORE]


 you to the field.  Ease-Up  will not accept an illegal path name,
 but will accept  one that does not exist, so  you should make the
 corrections when prompted.

 Qmodem Users:
 ────────────
   The Upload Path field is not  used when generating a script for
   Qmodem.   Qmodem  provides an  excellent configuration facility
   for  setting upload  and download  paths, among  others. It  is
   assumed  that you  are using  this facility  of Qmodem. Ease Up
   makes  use of  a Qmodem  variable, $UPLOAD,  in the  scripts it
   generates.   This variable contains  the upload path  as set in
   Qmodem's  configuration.   In  order  for an  Ease-Up generated
   script to function properly without editing, you should set the
   Qmodem  upload  path  as  indicated  by  the  program's manual.

*memo_ptr

                         Long Description
                         ────────────────

 Here  you may  enter the  long description  of the  file you  are
 uploading. You should follow  GEnie and forum  guidelines for the
 information entered here and in the keywords field.

 You are provided with ten lines to enter your  long  description
 on  (ten  lines  is  GEnie's  limit  of  the  length of the long
 description).  The lines are numbered  from  1  to  9  with  "L"
 marking the last line.

 You may use an external ASCII text file for the long description.
 Ease-Up will load  the text file using the  [-d long descr. file]
 command line option. A maximum of 10 lines of text is allowed and
 no line should  exceed 76 characters in length.   Exceeding these
 limits  won't hurt  anything, but  your description  will not  be
 formatted as it probably was in your file.

                                                <PgDwn> for [MORE]

 Here are many of the editing functions available  for  the  long
 description:

                         F = function key
                      SHFT = shift key
                      CTRL = control key



             Key                Feature
             ---                -------
             F4                 paragraph reformatting
             INS                optional insert or overwrite mode
             SHFT-F4            join lines
             F5                 insert blank line
             F6                 delete line
             SHFT-F6            delete to end of line
             CTRL-F6            delete to end of word

             HOME               goto first column of line
             END                goto last column of line
             CTRL-PGUP          goto first column of first row
             CTRL-PGDN          goto end of text
             CTRL-LEFT          goto first character of previous word
             CTRL-RIGHT         goto first character of next word

 In addition, there is word wrapping  works fine, so long as there
 are  not enough  characters ahead  to fill  the field.   You  may
 insert  a blank  line as  you normally  would, but  that carriage
 return in the  first position on that line  will cause the editor
 to act as if the line was full.   Keep this in mind, as you can't
 see the carriage return character and you may believe you have an
 empty line.

 There is an idiosyncracy in the editor. The TAB key will move you
 from the long description to the  first field (File Name) and the
 Shift-TAB combination will move to the previous field.
