'             by Vaishnava dasa on 10/20/89
'                Release 3.0 on 10/10/90
'
'
' Version 1.0 (10/20/89)
' Version 1.1 (10/21/89)
' Version 1.2 (10/21/89)
' Version 1.3 (11/28/89)
' Version 1.4 (12/13/89)
' Version 1.4 (12/18/89)
' o Reads format file (default "SUBJECT.TMP" on default drive) for
'     customizing output file using "F:" optional command-line
'     parameter.  Recognizes these format strings:
'     1) TODATExx - date of latest message
'     2) FMDATExx - date of earliest message
'     3) MSG - number of messages in conference
'     4) AREA - name of conference given in command line.  SUBJECT.exe
'               will overwrite 16 characters following "AREA" string
'               when copying from the format file to the output file.
'               This is needed if you make a generic template format
'               file where AREA variables vary in length.  If you are
'               using one template per conference, you can omit this
'               AREA variable and just put the name of the conference
'               in the template file
'     5) SUBJECT8901234567890 - 20 characters for SUBJECT string
'     6) ### - 3 characters for number of messages in SUBJECT thread
'
'     When using new "F:" parameter, all the above format string
'     variables are optional.  Command line parameters "S:", "D:" and
'     "L:" are ignored.  Using the "F:" parameter assumes that you
'     will put in your own Smart-text commands.  Will even work with
'     format files using ansi commands (as done by THEDRAW) as long as
'     the above strings can be found in the format file
'
' Version 2.0 (12/25/89)
' Version 2.1 (5/31/90)
' o  Gets rid of G:, A:, B:, and F:C parameters.
' o  Compatible with RBBS-PC Version 17.3
' o  Strips "RE:" from Subjects
'
' Version 3.0 (10/10/90)
' o  Got rid of all internal format for Smart-text; this means
'    that (*.tmp) template files are absolutely required
' o  No more command-line parameters supported except ones
'    absolutely required (i.e. I:, O:, and C:)
' o  SUBJECT will only support making all three *W.DEF files,
'    namely, *W.DEF, *WG.DEF, and *WC.DEF.  I have no idea if
'    this will be backwardly compatible with RBBS-PC prior to
'    Version 17.3
' o  Now SUBJECT will support full 25 character SUBJECTs in output
'    This is not backwardly compatible with any previous release of
'    SUBJECT.EXE, or the previous default-sample *.TMP files
'    New sample *.TMP files will be included with this release
'
' --------------------------------------------------------
'
' SUBJECT Version 3.x - A RBBS-PC Conference messages utility
'
' Use:  Scans RBBS-PC messages files and writes a file listing
' ~~~   the most popular threads in descending order.  Formatting
'       options dependent solely on required *.TMP template files.
