- INTRODUCTION
-
-
- TnT Sysop Stats is finally here! YAY! This is a little program that
- Alan and I started writing a year ago. Another person wrote one similar to
- ours so we decided to use it. After a few months we noticed that some of the
- stats were not right. So with the help of newcomer Bill Townsend, we pulled
- this outta the archives and finished it up.
-
-
- SETTING IT UP
-
-
- For those of you who use our software now, this program is no
- different in setting it up. Simply copy the files in the archive onto your
- hard drive. The files included are:
- TNTSTATS.EXE <-- The executable program
- TNTSTATS.DOC <-- The file you are reading now =)
-
- If you are installing for the first time type the following at the
- prompt:
- TNTSTATS C
-
- This will allow you to configure the program. You will be asked the
- following questions:
-
- Please enter the location of your BBS program files (ie C:\TRIBBS)
- --> c:\tribbs
- Please enter the SysOp's name.
- --> James Troyan & Bill Townsend
- Please enter the BBS's name.
- --> The Screamin' Eagle
- Please enter the bulletin name. (ie BULLET8)
- --> bullet9 (Note : DO NOT include an extension.)
- Do you wish to create both ANSI and ASCII files?
- --> y or n (Note : Answering 'n' will cause the program to create ASCII only)
-
- After this, the program will create a file called TNTSTATS.CFG. If
- you ever need to change it, you can do so by using a simple text editor, or
- re-running TNTSTATS C. Now, you are all set up! =)
-
-
- RUNNING IT
-
-
- You can use TnT SysOp Stats as an event or a stand alone program.
- Simply type:
- TNTSTATS R
- This will run TnT SysOp Stats from the command line. If you want to
- run it as an event, you do it exactly the same way, but put the command
- TNTSTATS R in a batch file. Easy as falling off a log. Heck, even Joe Klemmer
- can do this. Just kidding Joe! ;)
-
-
- RUN TIME & PROBLEMS
-
-
- TnT SysOp Stats has been tested on different sizes of CALLERS.LOG
- files. The biggest so far was 126,740K. This was for about 1 month of
- activity on The Screamin' Eagle (Big SHAMELESS plug). I timed it at about
- 2 seconds on a 386. No real problems have been noted. If you happen to note
- one (or two, or three...), please send E-mail to James Troyan or
- Bill Townsend. If you want to get questions answered more quickly send E-mail
- to:
- troyanj@lurch.winthrop.edu or
- townsenb@lurch.winthrop.edu
- This, of course, is via INTERNET.
-
-
- LICENSE AND COST
-
-
- Well, this is just like all other TnT stuff. Yep, it's free to the
- registered SysOp's of TriBBS. Just our way of saying thanks. You using our
- stuff is all the thanks we need.
-
