WHAT IS NAMEMENU
NameMenu is a menuing system for boB Gage's NameChange program. NameChange
does an excellent job of providing the use of 'ALIASES' on command with
PCBoard 14.5a. However, NameChange was a bit confusing for the novice user
of PCBoard. What NameMenu does is provide a user friendly interface for
NameChange to do it's job. NameMenu IS NOT AN ALIASING DOOR, just a front
end for NameChange. NameMenu will provide up to 9 different aliases per user.
If more is needed, let me know and I will change the code for this. I figured
that 9 should just about take care of everyone.
SETTING UP NAMEMENU
NameMenu is designed to run from within the PCBoard directory. There are
3 files needed for NameMenu to function. They are NAMEMENU.EXE,
NAMEMENU.CFG, and NAMEMENU. The following is what the NAMEMENU door file
looks like. YOU SHOULD NOT CHANGE THE CONTENTS OF THIS FILE. You may rename
the file what ever you like, but do not change the contents of the file.
@ECHO OFF
NAMEMENU

That is it for the NAMEMENU file. The following is an example of the
NAMEMENU.CFG file.
JAMES DEAL ---------------> Name door is Registered to.
Sinbad's Shack BBS-----------> BBS name.
00000000 -------------------> Registeration Number.
Z:\PCB\DOORS\NAMECHNG -------> Full path to the NameChange door.
Y ------------------------> Allow multiple Aliases
ALIASES ---------------------> NameChange Alias file name
You must not change the name of the .CFG file.
NameMeun will support the use of multiple aliases up to 9 per user if the
sysop allows the use of Multible Aliases.
At the present time, NameMenu only supports a single Alias file. If there
is a need for it, I will write code for multiple alias file support.
In the DOORS.LST file you should set it up as follows.
USER DOOR
FILENAME PASSWORD SEC LOGIN SYS SYS SHELL PATH
NAMEMENU 40 N Y N Y C:\PCB
Now I know what you are thinking about the USERS.SYS file, NameChange might
cause some unexpected things to happen if USERS.SYS is used, but NameMenu
uses this file and when NameMenu is finished the USERS.SYS file is closed and
deleted prior to calling NameChange.
That is about it. If you have any comments, please feel free to call
me at Sinbad's Shack (804) 467-9702. I use Jim Deal on the board. Sinbad's
Shack is Tidewater Virginia's Largest FREE BBS. We offer 5.5 Gig of adult
related files along with general shareware files for an amazing low price of
FREE! Sinbad's Shack is the Home of the After Dark Adult Network.
I can be reached via the PCBoard conferences in the following networks:
NorthAmri Net
UNI Net
I can also be reached in any conference on the After Dark Adult Network.
Thank you for taking a look at NameMenu.
