- "Uploader's Name"
-
- Here is a simple utility that will read the UL.LOG (upload
- log) file Maximus creates and then add the uploader's name and, as an
- option, the upload date and time to the FILES.BBS for everyone to see.
- In order to help prevent processing an entry more than once,
- the program will insert an '*' in the first column of each entry of
- the UL.LOG it has processed. (Be aware that this only happens after
- a normal program termination.) A copy of the old UL.LOG is made and
- called 'UL-LOG.OLD'. If the corresponding FILES.BBS cannot be
- found, then the entry is NOT processed, but IS marked with an '*'.
- If you wish to reprocess an entry, edit out the '*' in column one
- of the UL.LOG and rerun UPNAME.
-
-
- Parameter(s)
-
- /D tells upname to add the date and time of the upload after the
- name of the uploading user's name in the appropriate FILES.BBS.
