What is SBFI2FLS ?
SBFI2FLS is a program that will read your SuperBBS Flsearch.Bbs
file and generate you an output text file named FLSEARCH.CTL.
This file is required by some doors for use under SuperBBS.
The archive you downloaded/received should be named SBFI_100.??? where
??? will be one of the many archive extensions.
The SBFI_100.??? archive may be converted to another archive format
provided that all the listed files below are included and no others
are added either.
SBFI2FLS.EXE The executable program.
SBFI2FLS.DOC This documentation you are reading now.

▒▒ HOW TO INSTALL IT !!▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Unpack the files from the archive and copy them into your SuperBbs
System Directory.
SBFI2FLS can only be run from your system directory.
To use SBFI2FLS all you do is enter SBFI2FLS at the dos prompt.
There is one command line parameter that can be specified and this
is R, eg SBFI2FLS R
If no command line parameter is specified, SBFI2FLS will create the
FLSEARCH.CTL file with trailing backslash's in the filepath in the
output file. This is regardless of wether the trailing backslash is
configured in the FLSEARCH.BBS or not. If the trailing backslash is
missing, then one will be appended.
C:\IBMFILES\ 5 General_Ibm_Files
C:\UPLOADS\ 5 New_Uploads
If the command line parameter is 'R' or 'r', then all trailing backslash's
are removed from the filepath field.
C:\IBMFILES 5 General_Ibm_Files
C:\UPLOADS 5 New_Uploads
The output file will be created in the SuperBbs system directory.
The program has been successfully tested on several systems under
a wide range of video cards including Hercules, CGA, EGA & VGA, and
MS-Dos versions 3.20, 3.30, 4.0x and 5.00, DESQview and QEMM.

▒▒ ERRORLEVELS ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
SBFI2FLS currently produces 2 different errorlevels as follows:
0 - OK. Program Terminated Normally
> 0 - Something Went Wrong
SBFI2FLS will generate other errorlevels but in this release they will
remain un-published as to what they mean, but in so much should an error
level greater than 0 be generated, then there is an error somewhere
in your Flsearch.Bbs or instalation of SBFI2FLS.
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
▒▒ DESQview Users ▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒▒
───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
The program is DESQview aware and can be run inside a 128K Dos Window.
When SBFI2FLS initialises it checks for the presence of the DESQview
multi-tasking environment and if active re-directs the screen to the
DESQview window in which it is running.
