- ZONE is a database provided by Ed Gassman, N8HTT. Review it by viewing
- the files ZONE.LIS and ZONE.FUL. ZONE.LIS will be displayed to the
- user who types SH/ZONE <ENTER>. ZONE.FUL is the database itself.
- ZONE.AOK is furnished to limit updates (SYSOP should change if desired).
-
- To implement SH/ZONE, first load the two files into your PACKCLUS directory.
-
- Then, make the index file by executing the MAKEIDX utility as follows:
-
- MAKEIDX ZONE.FUL 3000 <ENTER>
-
- Next, add the following line to your SYSOP.DAT file:
-
- SET/COMMAND ZONE ZONE.LIS ZONE.FUL/ZONE.IDX * * *
-
- And, if you didn't shut down the node to install the database, type in the
- above line as a SYSOP command.
-
- Other nodes may access the database on your node by adding a line to their
- SYSOP.DAT and/or typing in the line as a command. If the callsign of the
- node where the database is installed is KJ9D, then the other nodes would
- execute the following command (in SYSOP.DAT and/or as a direct command):
-
- SET/COMMAND ZONE * * * * * KJ9D
