#2 From Brian Timmins at Ridjek Thome (2:251/16.666)
All Bronscan View File bundles from CENSBASE at Ridjek Thome
contain the following:
BRON_???.ZIP Files to a volume of approximately 500Kbytes,
where ??? represents the Chapman code for the
appropriate original census file:
(viz. UKC_PEE.ARJ ≡ BRON_PEE.UK ≡ Peebleshire)
INDICES.ZIP Two files:
PLACES.UK lists all UKCfiles/Counties with Parishes
NAMES.UK lists all Names with Parish & County
FILES.LST List of the BRON_???.ZIP files
FILES.IDX Ditto but BRONSCAN format ready for concatenating
to your UK.IDX, plus entries for the indices
Copy FILES.IDX to your Bronscan directory and type
the following at the DOS prompt:
COPY UK.IDX+FILES.IDX UK.IDX
BRONBULL.ASC/ANS/AVT
ASCII, ANSI and AVATAR versions of a Menu
bulletin should you wish to use it on your BB
STOPRESS.TXT Latest information on the CENSBASE project

All bundles are concatenated with PKZIP version 2 with the compression
set at NO compression and authenticity verification on.
All Bronscan ZIP View Files are as follows:

ASCII text format, indented and BRONFIXED
ready for use
All View Files are compressed with PKZIP version 2 with the compression
set at maximum and authenticity verification on.
If any file is extracted without the -AV flag printed after it,
or if the following message is not present...

NOTES
~~~~~
Bronscan View Files are versions of the UK 2% Census Counties
available in a rationalised BRONSCAN format for easy BB viewing.
You will notice that in the header of the BRONSCAN formatted listing
that I am offering a selective database search for any genealogist.
Anyone who runs a BB may make this offer to their users. If sufficient
traffic warrents it a special echo could be created which would
obviously be most convenient.
Also included are "Bulletin Screens" in the three standard formats,
ASCII, ANSI and AVATAR, which you might like to use on your bulletin
board. That is, of course, if you use BRONSCAN and wish to use my files.
