Echo Request Processor
By Bryan Turner
RabbitLand II BBS
1-214-286-3443
This is quite a simple program to run, all you really have to do is
answer the question's.
Well what does it do. It saves your SysOp alot of time in finding out what
echos you want to see on the BBS.
Mose users do not understand what it takes to get an echo turned on for a
user. First you have to write the SysOp that you are looking for a certian
echo. Then the SysOp has to write a Message to his hub requesting the Echo.
(New SysOp's have a Harder time at this) then the hub writes back saying that
the echo request was Recived. And finally your SysOp can set it up for you to
start reading. This utility takes out ALL the steps except the last one. The
SysOp will always have to set up the Echo.
The Echo Request Processor (EREQ from now on) will write all the Messages
for you and your SysOp. I know you are asking How did I get so lucky to have
this ability???? Well your sysop happens to be on of the rair sysop's that
happens to like to listen to his users. (Kiss up to him/Her you need to stay
on this BBS) ;)
What you will do.. First look at the echo list, and select an echo that
you would want to read. Remember these echos take up alot of space. If you do
not want to read it then DON'T turn it on. After you have selected an Echo look
at the Tag that is to the Far Left of the Echo. For Example:
BLUEWAVE Blue Wave Support Echo
BNU BNU FOSSIL DRIVER SUPPORT CONFERENCE
BOATING BOATING
Lets say you wanted to start taking the Blue Wave Support echo. BLUEWAVE is
the echo tag. That is what you would type in to turn on the Echo. Make
sure you remember (Or write down) the Echo tag.
If you have a High enough security level, you can now go in and request it.
when you request the Echo, this Program will do the rest for you. If you are
under the security level, that the Sysop has set up, then you can select the
option to let you Request it from the SysOp. This option writes the Sysop a
message telling him/Her exactally what Echo and in what Network they can find
it in.
If you like this door Please write your SysOp and tell him/her how great
they are for haveing this on thier BBS! And you might think about donating
to the SysOp. Please remember we have to pay for our mail. :)
