Affinity Bulletin Board Software
-(c)1995,1996 Newterra Enterprises
Thank you for you interest in Affinity BBS Software
At this time I have no documentation available. This is just
a short list of known bugs and information.
- There is a bug in the "delete a rumor" portion of the software
this will be fixed very shortly
- FidoNet compatible tosser will be available, or I will be changing to JAM
mail system, if anyone has any information or demonstrations of the JAM message
system please upload them to my board.
- OS/2 Native version in the near future.
- Multinode compatible Win/NT-Win3.1-Desqview-OS/2 timeslicing will be added
- Multinode chat
- FILE_ID.DIZ support will be completed shortly.
- Has file testing support, definable protocols, and many configurable ansi's
- Ability to repair many of the commonly corupted data files in config.exe
- Definable message headers, File headers, email lists, bbs lists
- Will make customized versions for anyone who wants to register
- Free updates with registration
- "Guest" user working flawlessly as to the best of my knowledge
- ANSi gallery will be completely shortly, though it exists and works in this
version it does need alot of work <g>
- Timebank works flawlessly
[If anyone would be interested in helping with the software in anyway,
making external utilitys, documentation, ansi's...etc contact Vivisector

Appendix A: In order to use echomail, copy IMP-MAIL.EXE and IMP-MAIL.CFG into your affinity directory. Then copy your Affinity.Dat file to Status.dat.
Appendix B: Strings are now external, except for six of them, after
installing edit STRINGS.TXT and then run STRCOMP.EXE, which will create
STRINGS.DAT which will need to be moved to your data dir. Strings can
only take one line and are limited to 255chrs.
Appendix C: File_ID.DIZ importing is now working atleast from the sysop
local upload menu, if anyone encounters remote problems with it please
leave me feedback on Phailed Utopia. You can even leave me a note from
the matrix.
Appendix D: I've included a bulletin generator for Affinity, it is very
rigid at this point, I hope to have time to make it use configurable ansi's
by the time the next release is out.
Appendix E: MSGHDR.ANS and RMSGHDR.ANS now have ASCii equivalents, I
haven't had the time to make them for you, but you can take the initative
it is very simple, text and then the mci code, remember you can only
put one MCI on each line since there is no animation in ASCII.
Note: The software does not run on a HPFS partition, I am not sure the
exact problem it is something with purging the directories (temporary),
if you run OS/2 run the software on a FAT partition, the data files can
go on a HPFS drive if you think that will enhance performance.
Note: The softwares offical release version is currently 1.00ß4.
