Robs Quoter Version .01 Beta
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well, after searching for an easy to quoter I finally decided screw it I'll
write my own! Well here it is, there are only a few quotes (I'm tired and
can't remember anymore).
This Quoter should work on any BBS that has a file that could be updated.
It will either create a new quote file for you or will append an existing
one.
Configuration File
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Y/N (Do You Want An ANSI Quote Produced)
D:\BASIC\TEST1.ASC (Path To ASCII Quote)
D:\BASIC\TEST1.ANS (Path To ANSI Quote If Used)
C (Append an existing file or Create a new one)
That's all you need to get the program running. From there simply type ROB and
the quote will be generated. Should you want to add quotes simply do the
following: Open the ROB.QUO file with any ASCII editor. Before each new quote
place a ~ by itself and a carriage return. After the last quote do not place
the ~ character. Save the file and type COMP. Then your new quotes will be
included in the list.
A note about APPENDING files. This feature will continue adding even if there
is a quote already attached to the file. So here's an example of a batch file
to use before quoteing:
CLS
IF EXIST D:\BASIC\TEST1.ANS DEL D:\BASIC\TEST1.ANS
COPY D:\BASIC\BACK\TEST1.ANS D:\BASIC\TEST1.ANS
ROB
Always keep a back up without any quotes on it, delete the old quote,copy it
to the working directory and then run the program.
Anyways this program is free to anyone who wishes to use it under the condition
that it is not modified and is left entirely in it's orignal form (SOURCE CODE)
Other than that you are free to distribute it or any ROB.QUO databases you may
use. The source code may eventually be released but that is a few versions
away.
The next version will include a door program so users may add their own quotes!
Till Then!
Rob
