Short: Voting Booth prog for DLG BBS - Ver 1.6B
Author: Mike Dissinger
Uploader: tuskie@cris.com
Type: comm/dlg
A New and different Voting Booth program for DLG BBS
Version 1.6d - July 1996
There are other voting booth programs out there for DLG, but none did what
I wanted them to do! So I wrote my own in Arexx and compiled it with
RexxPlus. (RexxPlus Library included in this archive)
**FEATURES**
* Will write a message to a specified message area when a NEW vote
topic is created.
* When a Vote Topic is deleted.. it can/will write a message to a
specified message area giving all the Vote Topic results.
* Allows you to create a log on bulletin of voting booth results.
Thanks to Ron Reynolds POSTBUL program! (Included)
* Can optionally keep a log of who does what.
* Can hold up to 16 different vote topics.
* Can hold up to 16 vote topic answers per topic.
* Will allow any user to add an answer to a topic if there are less then
16 answers and if the creator of the vote topic will allow it.
* When a new vote topic is created.. the creator is given the options to
enter all answers themselves, which would not allow anyone else to
add an answer to the vote topic.
* Sysop access to TheVotingBooth is determined by the members name. This
is OPTIONAL.
* Sysop's have access to remove vote topic, edit vote topic (and all of
its fields), delete one or more answers from a topic (not just edit it)
and optionally append vote results, to a viewable file from the main
main menu, when a vote topic is deleted.
* When a QUESTION topic is DELETED by the SysOp (Or anyone else who has
access to the SysOp menu) you are given the option to write all of the
vote topics QUESTION, TIME FRAME, ANSWERS, PERCENTAGES OF VOTES etc. etc.
to a file called [PastVotes.Txt] (Hard Coded Name) and with DLG's Color
switches (%a4 etc.), which then CAN be read from within the program
by using the 'P' Function on the main menu. This would allow users
to read OLD vote results. It is up to you when you want to edit this
file down in size (if it grows huge!).
* Allows you to create your own text file (or ANSI) that will be shown
to all users when they run the program (OPTIONAL).
* Can now be run in two seperate places if you wanted one to work just for
a particular set of users.
* This is FreeWare/ShareWare
* For DLG Pro BBS 1.x
