- ==========================
- 1. FISHTEXT.EXE
- ==========================
-
- FISHTEXT will create ASCII and ANSI bulletins of Freshwater Fishing
- Simulator (FFS) door program. FISHTEXT can be run any time, but it is
- best to place it after FISHING in the batch file you use to run FFS.
- example .BAT file
-
- @ECHO Off
- CD \BBS\DOORS\FISHING
- FISHING 2 C:\BBS
- FISHTEXT C:\BBS\TEXT\FISHTEXT.ASC C:\BBS\TEXT\FISHTEXT.ANS
- CD \BBS
-
- This way the bulletins are kept current.
- The bulletins will contian the Top 10 money leaders, the current tour
- standings, previous tour results (up to 16 back), and the top 3 best weights
- for each fish.
-
- ==========================
- 2. FISHTEXT command-line
- ==========================
-
- The command-line syntax for FISHTEXT :
-
- FISHTEXT [ASCII filespec] [ANSI filespec]
-
- Where ASCII filespec is the filename of the ASCII text bulletin. You can
- also enter a path as part of the ASCII filespec.
- ANSI filespec is the filename of the ANSI text bulletin. You can
- also enter a path as part of the ANSI filespec.
- If you do and the optional filespecs you must include both filespecs.
-
- If no filespecs are given FISHTEXT will write two files called
- FISHTEXT.ASC (ASCII) and FISHTEXT.ANS (ANSI) in the Current Directory.
-
- ===========================
- 3. Example using FISHTEXT
- ===========================
-
- FISHTEXT C:\BBS\TXTFILES\HIGHFISH.ASC C:\BBS\TXTFILES\HIGHFISH.ANS
-
- This will create a ASCII text bulletin, named HIGHFISH.ASC, in the directory
- C:\BBS\TEXTFILES, and a ANSI text bulletin, named HIGHFISH.ANS in the
- directory C:\BBS\TEXTFILES.
-
-
- FISHTEXT
-
- This will create a ASCII text bulletin, named FISHTEXT.ASC, in the
- current directory, and a ANSI text bulletin, named FISHTEXT.ANS in the
- current directory.
-
-
- =================
- 4. FISHTEXT.INI
- =================
-
- The FISHTEXT.INI file can be used to add BBS codes into the FISHTEXT created
- bulletins. The following is the FISHTEXT.INI file will nothing defined.
-
- [BBSCodes]
- StartString=
- PauseString=
-
- The file must contine the section [BBSCodes] and either of the two settings
- StartString and/or PauseString.
- The string StartString is set to will be added to the begining of both
- text files. Use this setting to add the BBS code(s) to disable the BBS from
- pausing text files itself, and set the PauseString to the BBS code(s) that
- will pause the ouptut of text.
- PauseString is added ever 23rd line. This way pauseing can be controlled to
- the way the to bulletins are formated.
