____________________________
[U]pload a File:
________________
If you choose [U], you will be asked for the filename you wish to
SEND to this BBS. After you type in the filename and GAP checks to
see if it already exists online, you will be asked to enter a brief
description of the file you wish to send.
Some sysops may be using the "Extended" Directory Feature. If that
is the case then you will first be asked for a list of Key Words
and then you may enter up to 10 lines of description to describe the
file you wish to upload.
If you have already set your default protocol in your personal
database (usually done at registration) you will not be asked to
choose a protocol. If you choose NONE when you registered on this
BBS, GAP will ask you to choose a protocol.
You may also override your default protocol by appending the letter
after the chosen filename (ie U WICKED.ARC Z).
If you wish to send the file PRIVATELY to the sysop, when you are
asked to enter a description, place a / in front of the description.
Only proper DOS filenames are accepted. If you enter an improper
name, the GAP will give you the appropriate message.
Some sysops may allow you to send the file to a specific directory.
If that is the case then you will be asked if you wish your upload
to be entered into a specific directory. If you answer Yes, you will
be asked for the directory number to place the file in. You may ask
for a [L]ist of directories in which case GAP will show you a menu of
the available directories. This feature was provided so that YOU may
help the sysop keep the BBS in top notch shape!
