■ ProVote v1.2 Released on 07/07/94
Note: This is a drop in replacement, all you really need to do is replace
the PROVOTE.PPE file.
FIXED: If FORCE VOTING=ON, in multinode environment, and one node vals/dels
a user while another node has that user on his voting screen (but
has not voted on him YET..), the second voter was not be able to
quit out of voting.
FIXED: Finally, adding deleted users to the TCAN file will work properly.
I had opened the file using FOPEN not FAPPEND, so it just kept
replacing the first name.
ADDED: The message sent to new users when they are validated is now
security level aware. If for instance a validated user gets level
60, PROVOTE will first search for WELCOME.60, then WELCOME.PCB.
ADDED: Automatic conference registrations. See PROVOTE.DOC for details.
CHNGD: Infoform's 2 and 3 in the ANSI1.ZIP file have been enhanced, they
are now animated with a mondo-cool status bar on top. :)
■ ProVote v1.1 Released on 05/26/94
CHNGD: Maximum users being voted on is now configurable via line #11 in
PROVOTE.CNF. This line determines the maximum people allowed in NUV
at one time AND it must be GREATER THAN the amount of entries in your
PWRD file (how many different sec levels you have). MAKE SURE YOU
SET THIS NUMBER HIGH ENOUGH SO THAT YOU WILL NEVER HAVE THAT MANY NEW
USERS AT ONE TIME! I should have just kept this hardcoded <shrug>.
CHNGD: Maximum Comment to Sysop lines now follows setting in PCBSETUP.
FIXED: If user record does not exist in USERS file, infoforms are no longer
saved (if user was nuked through PCBSM or some other way).
FIXED: Didn't erase lightbar for when VALIDATED/DELETE screen pops up.
ADDED: Light-bar security level choice when sysop is force validating.
FIXED: Not really bug, when sysop validating, sec level would follow their
current stats to determine if landslide. fixed cause of ^
ADDED: Questions pertaining to stuffing votes now via light-bars.
FIXED: @X codes now filtered out for sysop comment #2 field.
FIXED: Now will properly add name to TCAN if sec is -2 for del users.
FIXED: Users could quit voting via ESC if force voting on all was ON and
users were still pending.
ADDED: If exist WELCOME.PCB, sent to user val'd thru ProVote in a private
message in conference 0.
CHNGD: You can now input right up to a wall during infoforms instead of x-1
so now you can input a single char inside of [ ].
FIXED: When displaying comments, it now makes use of the last line.
ADDED: Sysops can now see how every user has voted, even if they didn't
leave a comment.
CHNGD: Sped up the display of users being voted on; if on page 1 of users
list, it doesn't print 75 spaces over spaces already there.
CHNGD: EXIT.PCB format has totally changed. No more crazy methods to save
it, just put a * where you want a YES/NO lightbar to appear.
CHNGD: Users can now no longer vote on themselves (if they have been
validated outside of ProVote).
CHNGD: FEEDBACK.PCB now requires 3 "*" MCI codes. It will replace the *'s
with the Sysops name, users nanem, and subject- in that order.
FIXED: /S is now case-insensitive when saving feedback. Also enhanced it
to act like Telegard/Renegade.
CHNGD: PROVOTE.CNF format has changed drastically.
ADDED: Infoform can now be a PPE or display file, just put a "!" or "%"
followed by the complete path\filespec in the first line of the
desired INFOFORM.x file. It is YOUR responsibility to get any
forms to the DATA\ dir, see the source code to INFOHUNT.PPE for how
to create a proper filename. (This I would think is a rather
ADVANCED feature).
ADDED: If exist NEWUSER.PCB, shown to newusers before anything happens.
ADDED: If exist INSTRUCT.PCB, shown to voters before anything happens.
CHNGD: Got rid of the Clear/Restore toggle; now it always just clears
CHNGD: Can now use alt-F10 to prevent nukeage of applying user (just raise
sec before all apps are finished).
ADDED: Now saves forms for nuked users in GONE\ directory. IMPORTANT! If
you are upgrading, you must create this directory manually!
FIXED: Tiny inconsequential bug that caused a light bar to redraw itself
twice under certain conditions, just slowed the display a bit.
CHNGD: Infoforms now saved to temp filenames until feedback is SAVED, so
now apps of people who hung up won't clutter the DATA\ dir.
ADDED: "Review" choice when voting. This will also be the default bar that
is highlighted immediately after viewing infoforms, to prevent lazy
fucks from just slamming enter to blaze through all applicants.
CHNGD: STRINGS.DAT format has changed.
ADDED: if you define number of yes/no votes req as 0, then a user will
never be val'd or deleted. You can do it for one or the other, or
both.
ADDED: /VIEW command line paremeter. If this is used, and a voter is
entering PROVOTE but has already voted on everyone (and is NOT a
sysop), then ProVote will report "No New Users Found".
FIXED: If going from last page of applicants to first, it wouldn't clear
the previous underlying data
CHNGD: When entering provote, it will automatically hilight the first
UNVOTED on user (instead of simply first user)
CHNGD: INFOHUNT.PPE has been updated to reflect changes in ProVote, source
code has also been included to illustrate the naming convention used
for the infoforms.
