Remote Access User Ranker
CopyRight 1992 by, Brian Borden
Version 0.01
March 28, 1992
A program for ranking or updating Remote
Access User Comment fields.
┌─────────────────────┐
│ What's it all about │
└─────────────────────┘
RARNK001 is simply a program for those sysops who would like a name
level given to each user, depending on that user's security level. Or,
it may be used to place some other text in the user's comment field,
again depending on the user's security level. The program will read an
ASCII text file (which you create) and the reviews each user's security
level. If the contents of the user's comment field does not match the
text you have entered in the data file, then the user's comment field
will be updated to match the data file. If the user's security level
is not in the data file, then that user record will be bypassed and a
warning message will be displayed to tell you that there is a security
level in use on your system that is not in the RARNK001 data file.
These comment fields can then be displayed in .A?? screens using the
^F] (Control-F and ']').
┌────────────────────┐
│ Special Warning !! │
└────────────────────┘
At the present RARNK001 ONLY supports users.bbs files that have 1000 OR
LESS users. If your highest user record number is 1000, DO NOT USE THIS
PROGRAM !!!! It will TRASH your user file!
Also, if you use the user comment field for any other purpose, then you
may not want to use this program! All users with a security level that
is listed in the data file will have their comment field overlayed.
┌──────────────────────┐
│ Installation and Use │
└──────────────────────┘
Installing RARNK001 is easy. Place the program in the directory that
contains your USERS.BBS and USERSXI.BBS files. Then you must edit the
RARNK001.DAT file to match the security levels on your BBS. An example
is given below:
column 1
v
0000000000
10 Prior
20 Knight
30 Prince
40 Honored Visitor
NOTE: There MUST be a blank between security level and the level name.
NOTE: RARNK001 will only support 100 different security levels on one
BBS system.
The first line of the RARNK001.DAT file is for your registration code.
If you do not have the software registered, then please leave this line
alone. This file must also be in the same directory as your USERS.BBS
and USERSXI.BBS files. Then edit a batch file that you normally run
every night.

Registration is easy. There isn't any required. Though it would make my
day if someone sent my $5 bucks. If you'd like to send my a few bucks
