- Quick doc file to Latest Files Announcer.
-
-
- Version 0.1.
-
-
- Basically, the example LFA.CTL and SEARCH.CTL files included in this archive
- are commented and are easy to follow.
-
- The search.ctl file is just a copy of your FLSEARCH.CTL file, except that
- the security level MUST be removed. See example search.ctl file.
-
- This program will currently only work with QBBS type systems, i.e. the
- folder specified in the search.ctl file must contain a FILES.BBS file
- which contains the filename and description of the files contained in
- this folder. The description of the file must also start in column 14
- so if your FILES.BBS format contains just one space between each filename
- and description it will need to be re-formatted to this spec. See example
- below:

-
- 2NDRS232.LZH [1] Text file describing how to add a 2nd RS232 port to the ST.
- BOMB.DOC [6] How to make a thermonuclear device !!!!! ( Great Laugh !! )
- Y2MANUAL.LZH Your Second Manual by Andreas Ramos
-
- Keep the program and its associated files in the same folder.
-
- That's it! I'd be interested to hear from you if you find the program useful,
- or if you have any suggestions for improvements. I'll try and incorporate
- them if I can. Hopefully, I will be adapting this program to work with other
- formats so if you cannot run it at present don't give up hope! *8)
