POPCONF is NOT compatible with Wildcat! versions before 3.0
A public domain utility for Wildcat! SysOps
from the Charlatan's Cabin BBS
(213) 654-7337
WHAT IT DOES:
=============
POPCONF produces a sysop's report of an invididual message conference,
including the names and total number of users joined, the number who
are currently active, the number of active messages, oldest and newest
message dates or the low and high message numbers in the conference.
SETTING UP:
===========
First, be sure that MAKEWILD.DAT, CONFDESC.DAT, and SECLEVEL.DAT are all in
a directory that is in your DOS path. Also be sure that you have BRUN40.EXE
available in the path. This Microsoft runtime module is required for the
program to run. If you don't already have it, it's probably available on
the BBS where you got this program, or you may call the Charlatan's Cabin
BBS. See below for details.
RUNNING THE PROGRAM:
====================
POPCONF may be run with the number of the desired conference on the DOS
command line, or if there's none specified, it will ask for the conference
number when it is started. POPCONF is NOT designed to report on ALL your
conferences ... the MSTAT program is better suited for that task.
------------------------------------------------------------------
PROBLEMS, SUGGESTIONS:
This program is public domain. I don't seek or accept any donations or
registration fees for any of my Wildcat! utility programs, including
TODAYBBS, FLOP, MSTAT, USTAT, and others ... however I invite you to
read the short textfile "SHARE" enclosed in this ZIPfile. It suggests
that you make a contribution to YOUR favorite charity if you find this
program useful.
I welcome suggestions, and will try to help (no guarantees) if there are
problems.
You may contact me at The Charlatan's Cabin BBS (213) 654-7337. Mention
your Wildcat! registration number in the comment and you'll be upgraded to
visiting sysop level without the usually required registration by mail.
You may also leave a message via CompuServe EMail. My CompuServe account
number is 70250,220. I also regularly check the Mustang Software head-
quarters BBS, especially the "3rd Party Utilities Help" conference.
Please, NO VOICE CALLS. This isn't meant to be unfriendly, but with the
price of public domain software these days ... I just can't afford to be
"on call." I WILL respond to your questions via my BBS or CompuServe,
or via the Mustang Software registered SysOp BBS.
