- TOPDL v1.01 - BullsEye Software!
- BullsEye BBS (519)836-6246
-
- DISCLAIMER
- ----------
- This program works perfectly on my system, but I will not be held responsible
- for any damage caused to your system or data by TOPDL. Having said that,
- the only file TOPDL writes to is the output file, so there is little
- chance of any damage occuring.
-
- TOPDL
- -----
- TOPDL scans your *.DIR file area files to determine the top downloads on
- your system. You have the option of configuring which areas are appropriate
- for inclusion in the list, and can select a top download list of variable
- length.
-
- I was previously using another Top Download utility that, for some bizarre
- reason, stored the areas that you *didn't* want in the configuration file.
- This, of course, becomes a problem if you find yourself occasionally adding
- file areas that you don't want to be generally known about (I have a few
- file areas catering to adults, for instance). TOPDL is much safer, since
- only areas that you specify that are included. If you add additional areas,
- they won't be included unless you re-run the configuration program. If you
- remove areas that were selected for inclusion, TOPDL will handle it
- internally (or you could re-run the configuration program... your choice).
-
- INSTALLING
- ----------
- The installation of TOPDL couldn't be simpler.
- 1) Create a directory for the following files:
- TOPDL.EXE
- TOPDLCFG.EXE
- All other files are optional.
- 4) Run TOPDL.EXE
- 5) Make a command in your BBS to display the TOPDL.ASC file. This file
- contains Renegade colour codes, so ANSI users will see them in colour
- and ASCII users will see them in mono. It couldn't be simpler!
-
- That's it!
-
- PROBLEMS
- --------
- There are no known problems with this program. If you do encounter a
- problem, please contact me and let me know! See CONTACT.TXT for information
- on how to track me down.
-
- DONATIONWARE
- ------------
- Registration is entirely optional, since my utilities are distributed as what
- I call DonationWare. Please see details in REGISTER.TXT.
-
- FUTURE PLANS
- ------------
- Nothing at the moment... if you can think of anything, see CONTACT.TXT and
- tell me what you'd like to see.
-
- FINAL WORD
- ----------
- I hope you find this program useful, and if you have any comments,
- suggestions or criticisms, please contact me (Caught on yet? See
- CONTACT.TXT!) and let me know!
-
- Enjoy!
