SBBSDIZ Down 'n' Dirty Docs by BayBeVet
Program: SBBSDIZ.EXE
Version Info: Version 1.1 Beta
Description: FILE_ID.DIZ to FILES.BBS Merger
Purpose: To extract from ARJ or ZIP files description file FILE_ID.DIZ
if found and append the FILES.BBS with that file.
Givens: The Following are MUSTS
1) You MUST have set on in your configuration for SuperBBS to
make use of the > in extended file descriptions
2> You MUST have your FILES.BBS in the same directory as the
files within it
3> You MUST accept that this will truncate any previous user
entered description to 1 line, if FILE-ID.DIZ exists in that
file or not.
4> You MUST not use the MOVE a file feature built into SuperBBS
It is lame and will lock up if the file description is over
5 lines. Use a 3rd party utility or beat up the SBBS guys
to enhance this.
Usage: Run SBBSDIZ.EXE in the directory you wish to update.
NOTE: I suggest you make a backup of your FILES.BBS in case you don't like it.
I make a back-up of the files.bbs before converting called FILES.■■■,
but that will be overwritten each time you run SBBSDIZ.EXE
Personal Note:
I didn't write this thing with releasing it to the general public
in mind and had only planned to use it for my own BBS. I release this in the
spirit of Fellow SysOp Support and honoring their requests to 'CHECK OUT' this
thing. I offer NO support, No updates, or have ANY plans to do ANY thing in
the future.
next.. I think I'll make a patch to fix BIMODEM type transfer for HS/LINK
( Hey AKI, What the heck is with all the 'NNN NNN' in front of ALL the files
in the control list for downloading using a BIMODEM setup! and WHY is DOWNLOAD
and UPLOAD switched on Bimodem Type Externals !!!!!!!! )
