ILink APPlication Forms Generator -- v1.07
Copyright (C) 1990-1992 by Mark Rapp
ILink Admissions, Data: (201)239-1346
===================================================================
21 August 1991: maintenance release... re-worded terminology and
phone number formats for non-USA/Canadian members,
extended address formats to 30 characters; no
clue to reported display problems on certain Mono
and EGA systems yet.
17 August 1991: initial release
12 October 1991: minor formatting change for application parser
31 October 1991: additional formatting changes
04 November 1991: quick fix for error during hub name pick
02 January 1992: internal code fixes, format/cosmetic changes
18 January 1992: fixed logic flaw that would print HubName twice
on either APPLY.FRM or UPDATE.FRM, which would
result in the parser aborting when updating the
database
19 February 1992: found/fixed bug in host module; updated stats
===================================================================
If you have downloaded this package, you are either an ILink member
Sysop wishing to update your data, or you are a Sysop wishing to
have your BBS become a part of the best PCBoard-based mail network
in the world... ILink(sm)!
The purpose of this program is to tell you a little about ILink
and to generate an admissions application form for your BBS to
the network.
While we are selective about the boards admitted to ILink, we are
always interested in reviewing new applications. If you think
that your bbs and ILink would make a good combination, then all
you need to do is answer some simple questions that will be
displayed after a few screens of background information.
This program will automatically generate your application in the
proper form, ready to be sent to us for processing -- the file will
be called APPLY.FRM (if you are already an ILink member sysop, a
completed UPDATE.FRM will be generated).
To begin, execute ILAPP.EXE ...
PLEASE NOTE:
In order to ensure complete compatibility with the process by which
applications are processed (each application is read by a program
that parses the information automatically, and imports the parsed
data into a database -- applications will not be entered into the
database manually), it is imperative that all applications be
generated by the most currently available software...
So, should you you receive:
===================================================================
THIS VERSION OF ILAPP.EXE HAS EXPIRED, and application forms
generated by it will not be processed!
===================================================================
Please obtain a current version of this software, since each re-
lease will have a life span of no more than 60 days.
If the BBS from which you downloaded the program does not have the
current version, first-time callers can download the latest version
from MicroSellar BBS (201) 239-1346 -- simply logon and enter "F U"
from the main board menu; the uploads file directory will be shown
and ILink-related files are listed first. Simply look for:
ILAPPxxx.ZIP, where "xxx" is the version number.
You need NOT complete MicroSellar's registration procedure if you
are logging on for the sole purpose of obtaining the software
or submitting your ILink application.
===========
DISCLAIMER:
===========
Submitting your application for membership, will constitute agree-
ment that acceptance or rejection of your application will be
at the sole discretion of ILink admissions.
APPLICATIONS SUBMITTED BY SYSOPS RUNNING SOFTWARE OTHER THAN
REGISTERED COPIES OF PCBOARD OR WILDCAT! WILL NOT BE PROCESSED
AT THIS TIME!
With special thanks to
Mike Meyer and Evelyne Stalzer
