- Shareware
-
- ShowAnsi is Shareware. This does not mean it is free. After a trial
- period if you decide to continue using ShowAnsi you are expected to pay
- for it. It is only $US 15.00 after all. ($NZ 20.00 for New Zealand
- residents). I have done my work and provided a fully functioning
- product. I hope some of its users play the game and pay for it. I
- consider around 30 days a fair trial period. Registration is valid for
- all future versions.
-
- Disclaimer
-
- I disclaim all warranties and guarantees either expressed or implied in
- this documentation or in the program ShowAnsi. I accept no
- responsibility for any damages, loss of data, or other untoward events
- directly or indirectly caused by use of ShowAnsi. If you do not accept
- this, do not use this program.
-
-
- Distribution
-
- ShowAnsi can be distributed via any means possible with the limitations
- that:
-
- If distributed by a Shareware vendor and distribution is via disk,
- ShowAnsi must be the only product on the distribution disk, the
- exception being CD-ROM disks. If a vendor should wish to bundle
- ShowAnsi with other programs they must get my permission before
- doing so unless distribution is via a CD-ROM disk.
-
- Only a nominal fee be charged for distribution. $5.00 would be
- considered a reasonable fee. (If ShowAnsi is included on a CD-Rom
- this does not apply to the CD-ROM in question).
-
- It must be distributed in its original form with all the necessary
- files for its correct use and with any documentation files or
- other files provided by me - see PACKAGE.TXT for the list of
- included files.
-
- no other files are added to the archive for any reason by any
- person the exception being bulletin board disclaimer files.
-
- no part of the distribution files are altered by any method for
- any reason by any person.

- Opendoors is a door programming toolkit for C/C++. The latest version
- (upto 22/8/95) is Opendoors 5.00.
-
-
-
- Introduction
-
- ShowAnsi is an ANSI/RIP file viewer designed for use on a bulletin
- board. It was written because we had over 2 megabytes of ANSI files on
- our bulletin board and couldn't find what we considered a decent ANSI
- viewer. All that we looked at seemed to be lacking a feature of some
- kind, or were crippleware, or were bloody annoying in some manner. RIP
- viewing was thrown in as an after thought when version 5 of Brian
- Pirie's Opendoor programming library came out. (It's that easy to use
- folk!)
-
- ShowAnsi is simple to setup and easy to operate. It is also fully
- functional. That is, it is NOT crippled in any way though there is a
- small time delay nag - but I am sure you can cope with that until you
- register it.
-
- ShowAnsi enables the user to
-
- - tag files for viewing or download
- - view ANSI/RIP files online
- - download files in a variety of compressed formats
- - upload an archived file of ANSI/RIP files to be included in the
- database
- - add descriptions as the files are imported
- - delete a file before it is imported should the user decide it is
- crap after all.
- - Quit
-
- The Sysop of the board on which ShowAnsi runs gets a couple of extra
- functions. They can
-
- - Add files at any time
- - Edit descriptions of any file at any time.
- - delete groups of files from the database (including deleting
- them from the disk if desired.)
- - restrict viewing of selected files to selected baud rates
- so that animated ANSIs or RIPS aren't viewed by people with
- S-L-O-W modems.
- - have the ability to import ANSI/RIP files from other directories
- instead of having to have them already in the specified
- directory
- - Quit back to the main menu
- - Chat to users (should they so wish)
- - Hang up the line
- - Drop to dos (and prevent the user from entering any keystrokes
- while in dos)
-
- Showansi also checks uploaded ANSI files for escape sequences that
- redefine keys and deletes the files that do. It also keeps a text log
- file of the user's name, the date and time he/she logged on, and the
- names of any files they uploaded or downloaded.
-
- Setup
-
- File List
-
- The following files need to be in the ShowAnsi work directory:
-
- showansi.exe - very important!
- showansi.cfg - yup, this too.
- showansi.ans/rip - main menu
- shansisy.ans - sysop menu
- ansiinfo.ans/rip - screen header file
- sh_erase.ans - sysop delete file introduction screen
- instruct.ans/rip - user instruction screen.
- systruct.ans - sysop instruction screen.
-
- ShowAnsi has no local RIP capability so there are no RIP screens
- for the sysop functions. When a rip screen is being displayed to
- a remote user a small window pops up at the local end telling the
- sysop which file is being sent.
-
- ShowAnsi.cfg file
-
- Sample ShowAnsi configuration file
-
- ; This line is a comment line
-
- SysopAccessLevel 255
- MaximumDownloadSize 20
- AnsiFileDirectory c:\ansi
- ShowAnsiHomeDirectory c:\bbs\doors\showansi
-
- [ARCHIVES] ; archive header
- pkzip c:\tools\compress
- arj c:\tools\compress
- lha c:\tools\compress
- zoo c:\tools\compress
-
- [PROTOCOLS] ; protocol header
- Zmodem c:\bbs\doors\showansi\zmodem.bat
- Ymodem c:\bbs\doors\showansi\ymodem.bat
-
- The rules for this file are quite simple. There must be a space
- between the variable name and the variable itself. The variable
- name must be as shown above complete with Upper case letters. The
- [ARCHIVES] section must come before the [PROTOCOLS] section.
- Unpredictable things will occur if it is not.
-
- The [ARCHIVES] section format is Archive-program-name followed by
- the path to the archive program files.
-
- The [PROTOCOLS] section format is Protocol-name (NOT the program
- name) followed by the path AND the batch file used to run it.
- (See below for setting up your protocol batch files).
-
- Any line that starts with a ';' is considered to be a
- comment line and is ignored.
-
- Comments may be placed at the end of configuration lines.
- ie. SysopAccessLevel 255 ;this is comment!
-
- Any line that starts with a space is ignored.
-
- The four leading variables are fairly self explanatory. They are:
-
- 1) the level required for access to the sysop menu
- 2) the maximum size file (in kilobytes) that can be
- downloaded.
- 3) the directory where the ANSI/RIP files reside
- 4) the directory where the Showansi program files reside.
-
- Archive Setup
-
- Showansi recognises four archiver programs: Pkzip, Arj, Lha,
- and Zoo. Do not include any other archiver program other
- than these four. The necessary information for the use of
- these programs is coded into Showansi so all it needs is the
- names of the available protocols and the paths to where the
- program files exist. ie.
-
- [ARCHIVES]
- pkzip c:\tools\compress
- arj c:\tools\compress
-
- Only include the programs that you actually have available
- for use. Including unavailable programs will result in
- errors if the users attempt to use them.
-
- Protocol Setup
-
- When uploading or downloading files Showansi passes four
- parameters to the protocol process. They are in order:
-
- 1) the com port
- 2) the current baud rate
- 3) sz or rz (sz send, rz receive)
- 4) the filename
-
- These can be combined in any order in batch files to produce
- the relevant parameter strings for your protocols.
-
- Sample Batch Files
-
- @echo off
- rem *****
- rem sample batch file for zmodem using DSZ.
- rem *****
- DSZ port %1 speed %2 D restrict p %3 %4
-
- With protocols that do not use the sz/rz format for the
- send/receive parameters the following batch file can be used.
-
- rem **********
- rem sample batch file for non-DSZ upload/download
- rem protocols. Replace SEND/RECEIVE parameters with
- rem whatever command your protocol uses.
- rem **********
- if "%3" == "sz" goto :SEND
- if "%3" == "rz" goto :RECEIVE
- :SEND
- PROGRAM %1 %2 SEND %4
- goto :END
- :RECEIVE
- PROGRAM %1 %2 RECEIVE %4
- goto :END
- :END
-
-
- It is recommended to use DSZ as that is the only protocol that
- Showansi has been tested with. It covers the three most common
- protocols - Zmodem, Xmodem and Ymodem.
-
- Board Setup
-
- ShowAnsi handles all modem communications so if your BBS software
- supports door communications you need to turn that off else the
- remote users screen will turn to garbage every time something is
- sent down the line. If you run a fossil driver you can leave it
- operational or turn it off as you wish.
-
- ShowAnsi writes to the disk on various occasions so disk writes
- must be enabled if your BBS software supports disk protection.
-
-
- Drop File
-
- ShowAnsi supports the following types of door information
- files:
- Dorinfo1.def - RBBS, QuickBBS, Remote Access,
- Searchlight
- Chain.txt - WWIV
- Door.sys - Remote Access, PCBoard, GAP,
- Teleguard, Wildcat 3.0+,
- Searchlight
- SFdoors.dat - Spitfire, Tritel
- Callinfo.bbs - Wildcat 2.xx
-
- The ability to run one of these is required for ShowAnsi to
- run. Showansi expects the drop file to be either in
- Showansi's home directory or else the path to it to be on
- the command line.
-
-
- The Command Line
-
- The path to the drop file can be placed on the command line
- though it is not necessary if the drop file is in Showansi's
- home directory. This path does NOT include the name of the
- drop file. Showansi automatically looks for any of the
- files named in the previous section. ie. The following
- line is correct:
-
- showansi c:\bbs\doors\showansi
-
- whereas this is not:
-
- showansi c:\bbs\doors\showansi\dorinfo1.def
-
- Usage
-
- The Main Menu
-
- The program starts off in the main menu. I couldn't see any point
- in having a fancy opening screen to slow things down any more than
- necessary - besides, they are bloody hard to draw and I'm not good
- at them. There is a short time delay of upto 10 seconds before
- the main menu screen appears. Register ShowAnsi and the nag will
- go away. You and your users will be much happier and so will I.
-
- Tag Files
-
- Selecting this takes the user to the select files screen.
- This is where files are tagged for either viewing or
- downloading. Up to 13 files are listed down the screen
- along with their file size, the minimum baud rate for
- viewing, the number of times they have been downloaded, and
- the description of the file. A blue information line is
- printed on line 24 with the key information on it:
-
- 'D' - travel down the file list
- 'U' - travel up the file list
- Space - tag files.
- Enter - next screen of files in the list
- 'Q' - quit to the main menu.
- 'E' - edit file descriptions (sysop level only).
-
- The 'E' (edit) shows on the line if the user has sysop
- access and it is printed in red too, so it really is quite
- élitist.
-
- There is a little arrow like arrangement of characters to
- the left of the file names. This points at the current file
- so the user knows where he or she is in the file list and it
- moves up or down when the relevant keys (D,U) are hit. When
- the space bar is hit a yellow asterisk appears between this
- arrow and the filename to show the file has been tagged.
- The pointer will also move down one file if it is not
- already at the end of the list. Hitting the space bar on
- any already tagged file will cause it to be untagged, the
- yellow asterisk will disappear and the screen will be a
- little duller than it was.
-
- View Files
-
- This is where the user gets to see what they have tagged.
- The files are displayed in the same order as they appear on
- the list. Once a file has displayed the program will
- pause until the user hits any key. When that happens the
- next file will be displayed. If there are no more files to
- be displayed the main menu will be redisplayed.
-
-
- Download Files
-
- NOTE: This option will not work locally!
-
- All work in this function takes place in a temporary
- directory.
-
- To use this option the user must first have tagged 1 or more
- files. The user will then be prompted as to which archiver
- program to use. The tagged files are archived according to
- their choice. The user is then prompted as to which
- protocol to use for the download.
-
- As stated before ShowAnsi passes various parameters to the
- protocol programs named in SHOWANSI.CFG. The parameters
- passed are designed for use with DSZ zmodem but it should be
- relatively easy to setup a batch file to run another
- protocol using ShowAnsi's passed parameters where
- applicable. Most protocol programs that I have come across
- really only need to be passed the port number and filename
- and they will quite happily work out the rest.
-
- No user will be able to download a file larger than the size
- stipulated on the second line of SHOWANSI.CFG. This figure
- has to be in kilobytes rather than an actual size. If you
- don't want a user to be able to download a file larger than
- 100,000 bytes then make the line read '100'. If they have
- managed to select enough files to create .ZIP file larger
- than your stipulated figure then the download will be
- aborted returning them to the main menu.
-
- After the download is completed all temporary files and the
- temporary directory are deleted.
-
-
-
- Upload Files
-
- NOTE: This function does not work locally.
-
- All work in this function takes place in a temporary
- directory.
-
- The user is prompted for the name of the file that they wish
- to upload. They are then prompted for the protocol to use
- and then the upload proceeds (hopefully) as uploads normally
- do. Upon successful completion the user is prompted for the
- unarchive program.
-
- The unarchiver is called. If the uploaded file is not in
- the correct format or something goes wrong then the upload
- process is aborted and the user is returned to the main
- menu. If the file is successfully unarchived ShowAnsi then
- searches for any files with an .ANS or .RIP extension. Any
- other extension is ignored.
-
- When an ANSI file is found it is checked for any ANSI key
- redefinitions and if any are found the file is deleted. (I
- could see no point in allowing users to be able to upload
- nasties to a bulletin board). The database is then checked
- for duplicate names. If the name is found it is assumed
- that the file already exists and so the newly uploaded file
- is deleted.
-
- If the file makes it this far the user is prompted as to
- whether they really do wish to add the file to the database.
- Should the user decide 'yes' they are then prompted for a
- description. They can also choose to delete the file at
- this point too. If they don't the file information is added
- to the database, the file itself is copied to the ANSI
- directory named in the configuration file, and ShowAnsi
- looks for the next file.
-
- When all files have been processed the archive file, the
- unarchived files, and the temporary directory are all
- deleted and the user is returned to the main screen.
-
-
- Instructions
-
- Instructions on how to use ShowAnsi. Basically a shortened
- version of what you are reading now.
-
- Quit
-
- Exit the program.
-
- Sysop Functions
-
- Takes the user into the sysop menu which is outlined next.
-
- The Sysop Menu
-
- The sysop menu looks similar to the main menu except that it has
- different options on it. The extraordinarily simple layout is the
- same, the colours are the same etc. Pretty dull really.
-
- Add Record
-
- The sysop uses this option to add files locally. The sysop
- is prompted as to whether they wish to search the Showansi
- base directory (where the ANSI files are stored) named on
- the third line of SHOWANSI.CFG or whether they wish to
- import files from another directory. If the sysop chooses
- to import files she/he is prompted for the path to the
- directory containing the ANSI/RIP files. Showansi then
- searches in the directory of choice for any files with a
- .ANS or .RIP extension. No other file extensions may be
- imported into ShowAnsi. The search may take sometime if the
- directory contains a lot of files or if most of the files in
- it are already loaded into ShowAnsi.
-
- Once a file is found it is compared name by name with the
- database to make sure that it does not already exist in
- there. If it isn't its name and size are displayed on the
- screen and a prompt line is put on line 24. The prompt line
- asks Add File? and offers the following options:
-
- Yes
- Selecting Yes causes the sysop to be prompted for a
- minimum baud rate and a description for the file. The
- description can be up to 40 characters long. If the
- word 'DELETE' is typed in capitals with no leading or
- trailing spaces then the file will be deleted from the
- disk. The sysop is prompted whether or not they
- really wish to delete the file.
-
- No
- Selecting No causes ShowAnsi to ignore the file and
- continue searching for others. In this case the file
- will remain on the disk and will be offered for
- addition the next time the Add Files function is used
- on the same directory. ShowAnsi does not keep a
- record of rejected files.
-
- View
- View displays the file on the screen. The sysop is
- prompted whether or not they wish to add the file -
- (yes/no) or delete the file. If the sysop selects Yes
- or No the program behaves in the same manner as
- outlined above. Delete will delete the file from disk
- - as per usual the sysop will be prompted before the
- deletion occurs.
-
- Quit
- Quit exits the add files function back to the sysop
- menu.
-
- Delete
- Delete deletes the file from disk. Yes - the sysop is
- prompted as to whether or not they really mean it. (I
- believe in safety first when it comes to file
- deletions).
-
- And so it goes until either all the available files have
- been processed or until the sysop chooses Quit.
-
- When a file is added to the database it is checked first for
- any ANSI key redefinitions. Unlike the user ANSI-bomb check
- the sysop can still add the file to the database if she/he
- so wishes. The file will NOT be displayed from the users
- view file option OR from the sysop view file though users
- will still be able to select it for download.
-
-
- Instructions
-
- Instructions on how to use the sysop functions of ShowAnsi.
- A vastly shortened version of what you are reading now. It
- all fits on one screen and is probably barely
- understandable. Good thing you chose to read this.
-
- Delete Files
-
- A screen is displayed that tagged files will be deleted upon
- exiting this function. From there the sysop is put into the
- Tag files screen. This is exactly the same as the user Tag
- files screen and it has the same functions. The sysop can
- edit file descriptions, view files etc. if he/she chooses to
- do so.
-
- Files are tagged and untagged with the space bar. The file
- pointer is moved with the 'D' and 'U' keys. Blah blah blah.
- If you have read this far then you should have read how to
- operate the tag files screen.
-
- Upon exiting the tag files screen each file is individually
- displayed with its description. A prompt line is displayed
- with that asks 'Delete this File?' and has the following
- options:
-
- Y=from the database
- This will cause the filename and information to be
- removed from the database. It will remain on disk and
- will be submitted for addition to the database
- whenever the Add Files function is used.
-
- N=no
- The file will not be deleted from the database.
-
- B=database AND disk.
- The file will be deleted from both the database and
- the disk. (Be careful now!)
-
- Quit
-
- Exits back to the main menu.
-
- Sysop Keys
-
- The following functions are available to the local sysop:
-
- ALT-C Sysop chat The current screen is saved and will be
- restored on exiting the chat session.
- ALT-C or ESC will exit the session.
-
- ALT-H Hangup Hangs up the phone line.
-
- ALT-J Dos shell Drops to DOS. Type EXIT to return to the
- program. This option will not work if the
- system is low on memory.
-
- ALt-K Key lock Prevents the user from entering any
- keyboard commands until ALT-K is pressed
- again.
-
-
-
-
- Registration
-
-
- Registration of ShowAnsi is via a key file. Upon registering I will
- send you either a disk containing the latest version of ShowAnsi and
- your key file or via uuencoded Internet e-mail. If you choose the latter
- option then, if your version of Showansi is up to date, I will only send
- you the key file. Naturally if I send via e-mail there will be no
- postage and packing charge.
-
- Registration of ShowAnsi entitles the user to use one registered version
- of ShowAnsi per registration key file. In other words, if you wish to
- run more two copies of ShowAnsi then you must register it twice in order
- to obtain two legal key files.
-
- Registration of ShowAnsi only needs to be done once as your registration
- key will be valid for all future versions.
-
- Benefits of Registering
-
- Since ShowAnsi is not crippled any benefits are limited to:
-
- Removal of the time delay nag
- Removal of the yellow UNREGISTERED COPY from the main menu
- My undying gratitude
- Your peace of mind and knowledge of your own honesty
