-
- INSTALLATION/SETUP:
- ------------------
-
- 1. Copy SGLC.EXE to your \SHOTGUN dir.
-
- 2. Your Shotgun log files *MUST* be in the default path which is:
- \SHOTGUN\LOGS.
-
- 3. Before running SGLC, make sure you change dir. to your \SHOTGUN dir.
-
- Run it from the command line using one and only one parameter.
-
- The # of days you want to KEEP.
- Example: SGLC 5
- ^
- Save 5 days worth of logs.
-
- If your log(s) only have the # of days you specify on the command
- line or less, then SGLC will not touch your log(s).
-
-
- DELIVERY METHODS FOR KEY:
- ------------------------
- There has been some confusion over how we can send you your KEY
- file when you register, so here it is in a nutshell.
-
- On the Registration form, you can *ONLY* select 1 method.
-
- -Snail Mail: We'll send it via U.S. Mail on a 3.5" disk.
-
- -Call our system: You call our BBS and download your key. Logon with
- the exact same contact name you used on the reg. form.
-
- -Net Mail: We'll CRASH mail it to you, provided you are *NOT* a point
- system, and you have either a Fido or GDS netmail address.
-
- -On Hold in frontend: You POLL our front end and pick up your key which
- will be on hold for you.
-
- Fido or GDS Net address: If you want your key via Netmail or on hold
- in our frontend, you *MUST* provide your netmail address.
-
- If you are going to POLL our system or call our BBS to pickup your key,
- we recommend waiting 5 days after you send in the registration form
- to call, so you don't waste a phone call.
-
-
