---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Requirements
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are some simple things you should have in your computer to run this
program.

Introduction
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
P.S. This version for Remote Access => 1.00 only
This is not the first release but it is free for everyone. A first version
of 3.2.1 is released last year. In this release, there are no configurations
needed. It just leave a header in your FILES.BBS at the top containing the
files-size info etc. And also generates a simple ALLFILES listing.
Converts Files.Ra to flsearch.Ctl
It also add [00] to your description if its not found or change [x] to [xx]
to make it tidier. The counters are available if you are using Qfiledoor
or any download counter programs. This option ignorable using -N.
If no description are found, Flpro will add a comment on it.

FLPRO.EXE -n <- no counters. start at area

+ Write all lines in Files.Bbs to Allfiles.Txt
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Header
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is a simple 5 lined summary of the particular file area.
Example (extended ASC char mode) :
FileList Pro v3.6
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ # 80 - International Exchange Softwares Updated on 07-07-1991 │
│ Online files : 169 (991234 kb) Offline files : 92 ( 0 kb ) │
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Structure (extended ASC char mode) :
Program Identification/version
┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Area - Area name Updated on MM-DD-YYYY │
│ Online files : no. (size in K) Offline files : no. ( 0 kb ) │
═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
Note that the last line is the end-of-header indication. DO NOT remove it.
Example (ASC 32-125 char mode) :
FileList Pro v3.6
+-------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| # 81 - Local Exchange Softwares Updated on 07-07-1991 |
| Online files : 239 (892754 kb) Offline files : 55 ( 0 kb ) |
===========================================================================
P.S. the structure of 32-125 mode is the same as extended ASC mode.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also, DO NOT edit the header produced by Flpro to prevent corruption of
your FILES.BBS .. leave it as it is. you are only allowed to edit the
characters outside Flpro's header.
Files.Ra need not be in the same dir with Flpro but you should set RA=
environment which contain RA's directory. Flpro will search for it when
the file is not found in the dir.
Example :
C>set RA=C:\RA
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Warranty
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
We cant guarantee that it will cause no problem but safety precautions
should be done b4 running like backing up Files.Bbs. I am running it
myself in my board. So if you get any problems, i dont get them.. and so
we cant help.
P/s Flpro is able to back up Files.Bbs for you before processing.
