- ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ DESCRIPTION ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░
- ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- MB-HOLD.PEX is another PEX designed to show your users if some netmail is
- waiting for them on your system.
-
- Really everything can be configured!! All the coordinates, all the colors,
- all the text, ... just everything!!!
-
- ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ DISCLAIMER ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░
- ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
-
- In no way will I be liable for the loss of profits, lost savings or other
- incidental or consequential damages arising from your use or inability to use
- the software, or for any claim by any other party.
-
- This program works great on my BBS, unfortunatly, it might not on yours. Let
- me know of any problems. I would say that this program will take up some disk
- space but that would be, a NO BRAINER <BG>!
-
- ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░ INSTALLATION ░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░░
- ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
-
- Place the MB-HOLD.PEX in your PEX directory. You can put this PEX in the
- TOP.PBM or in any other menu.
-
- Please copy also the MB-HOLD.ANS file to your textfiles directory. This is a
- simple example, but you may use your own painting :-))
-
- Copy the MB-HOLD.INI file to your systempath of ProBoard (eg. C:\PB) and
- change the settings to your configuration!
-
- You can specify a special INI-file according to the language of the user!!
- But, be carefull! The extension MUST BE ".INI", otherwise it will not work
- properly.
-
- An example:
-
- On my board, I've installed two languages, ENGLISH.PBL and DUTCH.PBL. There-
- for I've added the following two lines in the MB-HOLD.INI file:
-
- ENGLISH=G:\BBS\PB\HOLD-ENG.INI
- DUTCH=G:\BBS\PB\HOLD-DUT.INI
-
- So, according to the language of the user, one of these INI-files will be
- used. If you don't add these entries to the INI-file, MB-HOLD.PEX will look
- into the MB-HOLD.INI file for the following entries:
-
- 1) ANSI
- This is the ANSI/AVATAR file which will be displayed.
-
- 2) NETMAILAREA
- This is the areanumber of your netmailarea in ProCfg. This are my settings:
-
- Name : Netmail Area
- Path : C:\NETMAIL
- Message Kind : NetMail
- Message Type : Private Only
- Name Option : Real Names Only
- Message Base : Fido *.MSG
-
- 3) X1,X2,X3,Y1,Y2
- These are column and row coordinates.
- X1 = The columnnumber of the Address-field
- X2 = The columnnumber of the Destination-field
- X3 = The columnnumber of the Message_Kind-field
- Y1 = The rownumber of the first line of the holding netmail messages
- Y2 = The rownumber of the last line of the holding netmail messages
-
- 4) HEADER,FOOTER,TITLE-1,TITLE-2,TITLE-3
- These are 5 strings which can be displayed in ANY color you want (see
- further!).
-
- 5) HEADER-X, HEADER-Y, FOOTER-X, FOOTER-Y, TITLE-Y
- These are again the coordinates. Note: only the Y-coordinate of the
- TITLE-field can be choosen. The X-coordinates are already specified
- by X1 and X2!!
-
- 6) CLEARLINE
- This is the line (including the color-codes!) which will be used to
- clear the screen. Be sure you put enough spaces to clean the whole
- line (hint: put a colorcode at the end of the line, so you're sure
- there are enough spaces!).
-
- 7) COLOR-ADDRESS, COLOR-SEPARATOR, COLOR-DESTINATION, COLOR-STATUS
- These are of course the color-codes for the netmail-address, the separators
- ( : . / ), the destination and the message kind (mail/file).
-
- 8) COLOR-ADDRESS-USER,COLOR-SEPARATOR-USER, COLOR-DESTINATION-USER,
- COLOR-STATUS-USER
- If there is mail waiting for the current user, it can be displayed in an
- other color (blinking color eg.)
-
- 9) EXCLUDE1, EXCLUDE2, EXCLUDE3, EXCLUDE4, EXCLUDE5
- Mail waiting for these names (eg. your own name) will not be displayed
- on the What's on Hold screen.
-
- 10) DISPLAYTYPE
- DISPLAYTYPE=0 -> EVERY waiting netmail will be displayed (except n°9)
- DISPLAYTYPE=1 -> only ONE entry per 'destination' will be displayed!
-
- In your TOP.PBM you can activate this PEX automaticly by using the <CTRL-A>
- hotkey ().
-
- This is an example of the TOP.PBM I use:
