- ║ Introduction ║
- ╙────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╜
-
- What is it?
-
- ■ This is a program that will scan your netmail folder looking for
- messages that have the FileReq bit set on, and not already
- received. Once it finds such a message, it processes the file
- request, and creates netmail back to the sender.
-
- Why do I need this?
-
- ■ If you allow file requests via Transx, you will want this program
- as normally your mailer handles the file request.
-
- Are there lots of features?
-
- ■ TXFREQ is a very basic file request processor, but does the job
- quite well for most requirements. It will search directories you
- specify for matching file names, as well as supporting magic
- file names.
-
- What doesn't it do?
-
- ■ It does not handle passwords or wildcards, so make sure you
- keep that in mind when defining what magic names and file
- directories are available.

- ║ Running ║
- ╙───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╜
-
- To run TXFREQ, simply call it with two parameters.
-
- TXFREQ <file_of_available_directories> <list_of_magic_names>
-
- 1) The first file is a simple text file with the names of the
- directories that TXFREQ should search when processing a request.
- For example:
-
- C:\FILES\GAMES
- C:\FILES\BBS
- D:\DOORS\ACTION
-
- 2) The second file is a listing of magic names and their matching
- filenames that should be sent. For example:
-
- RA S:\FILES\BBSSOFT\RA_250.ARJ
- TRANSX S:\FILES\MCC\TRANSX11.ZIP
-
- The format of these files should be nearly if not identical to
- the ones your mailer uses, in fact if you wish, you can tell Transx
- to use the same ones.
-
- When returning the file requests, you can also edit two files that
- will be sent to the remote system:
-
- TXFREQ-F.MSG is sent upon a failed request
- TXFREQ-P.MSG is sent upon a passed request
-
- If the associated file is missing, no notification message is sent.
-
-

- ║ Quick Tip ║
- ╙───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╜
-
- To run TXFREQ only when it's required, you search for a special file
- that Transx creates when there was a file request received. You can put
- it in your batch file like this:
-
- @echo off
- TX.EXE
- IF EXIST TRANSX.FRQ TXFREQ.EXE M:\FD\FAREAS.CTL M:\FD\MAGIC.CTL
