■ Description ■
Here is yet another of my brilliant ideas for utilities
For Sphynx! BBS Software. This shuld be internal (Sniffy:
Hint hint). But anyway, This editor is similiar to the user
Editor in Sphynx, but more advanced. You can edit more data,
Plus browsing and searching options. This is a big help. I
Might throw in a user email reader before i release the first
Version. But on with the docs...
■ Requirements ■
» Sphynx! BBS Software v1.x
» All The Sphynx! Data Files
» A Brain (Most Importent)
■ Files Included In <Useredit.Zip> ■
» Useredit.Exe - Main Exe File
» Useredit.Doc - The Docs Your Reading
■ Setting It Up ■
To set it up, just unzip the files I mentioned above into
Your Sphynx! main directory, and your set. If you get a
'<Sphynx.Cnf> File Not Found' error, then odvoiusly you're
Not in the right directory, your Sphynx.Cnf isn't in this
Directory, OR you just wanted to download this fine piece of
Art and read the docs. (If you did this, you don't meet the
Requirements of having a brain.)
■ Working It ■
Just type 'Useredit' at the dos prompt. The title screen
Will pop up. Hit any key to continue. You (I'm assuming the
Sysop is reading this) shuld be user number one, therefor all
Of your info shuld now be on the screen. There will be some
Brief help commands at the side, as well as what user number
You are currently on. The box with the info shuld look a little
Something like this:
┌────────────────]Sphynx User Editor[─────────────────┐
│ [1] User Name » │┐
│ [2] Real Name » ││
│ [3] Phone Number » ││
│ [4] Columns » ││
│ [5] Computer Type » ││
│ [6] Address » ││
│ [7] City/State » ││
│ [8] Zipcode » ││
│ [9] Employment » ││
│ [A] Goverment » ││
│ [B] Got # From » ││
│ [C] User Note » ││
│ [D] Password » ││
│ [E] Security Level » ││
│ [F] IBM Grafix » ││
│ [G] Laston Date » ││
│ [H] Uploads » ││
│ [I] Downloads » ││
│ [J] U/L Bytes » ││
│ [K] D/L Bytes » ││
│ [L] Timeleft » ││
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘│
└────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
Or something of that sort. To edit any of the data, simply
Press the key which corresponds to it. Here are the commands
You can use:
■ Help Commands ■
┌──────────────────────────────────────┐
│ + │ Up One User │
│ - │ Down One User │
│ ] │ Up Five Users │
│ [ │ Down Five Users │
│ U │ User Search │
│ S │ Skip To User Number │
│ Q │ Quit (Or Escape) │
└──────────────────────────────────────┘
*Note* Hit Alt-H Any Time To Get The Help Commands.
Here's what each of them do:
> + < This command will browse thru the users, one at a time
Going forward.
> - < This command is the same as above, but goes in reverse.
> ] < Same as '+', But that went a little slow, so i added
This to go FIVE users at a time.
> [ < Skips five users backwords.
> U < User Search. Enter the name of the user you are looking
For, and if it's there, it will change to that user.
> S < Skip To User Number. If you know the user number you want
To skip to, use this, It's a little bit faster. When you hit
'S', it will bring you over to the 'User #' on the side. Enter
It there.
> Q < Quit. Ends the program with a thank you message. [ESC] also
Ends it.
Now for the biggie - Here's what all the editing commands do:
> 1 < This is the user's User Name (Handle).
> 2 < This is the user's REAL name.
> 3 < Now comes the user's phone number. It can only be 13
Characters, and has to be at least 8.
> 4 < Numbers of columns. Has to be 40 or 80. Hitting '4' will toggle.
> 5 < Computer Type. Maximum of 30 chars.
> 6 < Address. Maximum of 30 chars.
> 7 < City and State. Maximum of 30 chars.
> 8 < Zipcode. Maximum of 10 chars.
> 9 < Employment. Job. Work. Max 30 chars.
> A < Goverment. Are You A Fed? Max 30 chars.
> B < Where user got number from. Max 30 chars.
> C < User Note. Comes in handy. Max 30 chars.
> D < Password. Changes to caps when done.
> E < Security Level. 1-99. Max 2 chars.
> F < IBM Grafix. Yes or No. Max 3 chars.
> G < Last On Date. Puts -'s for you. Only 19xx.
> H < Number of uploads. Max 5 chars (i think).
> I < Number of downloads. Max 5 chars.
> J < Number of bytes uploaded. Max 10 chars.
> K < Number of bytes downloaed. Max 10 chars.
> L < Time left. 1-999. Max 3 chars.
