- (usually done through a batch file or three), network dialouts,
- online game maintenance, etc.
-
- 1) Time

- The time the event is to run, entered in HH:MM format
- using military time. A time of 00:00 disables the event.

- 2) Command Line
- ════════════
- The DOS command line or batch file to execute. For exam-
- ple, you might enter
-
- C:\VBBS\EXTERNAL.BAT
-
- for an external daily-cleanup routine. Complete pathnames
- are not required if the routines are located in your main
- VBBS directory, but it's better to make sure.
-
-
- There are a number of external utilities specifically designed
- for use with VBBS; they are listed in APPENDIX K. For online-game
