-
- Automatic upload of AmiNet in DLG BBS's
-
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- What is it:
-
- AmiUp is a ARexx script that helps to upload files from AmiNet in any
- BBS using DLGPro. Filedescription and filearea are taken from the
- *.readme file from AmiNet.
-
-
-
- Requirements:
-
- The script requires 'rexxreqtools.library' by Nico Francois and the
- command 'DLGUpload' by Michael Dreher.
-
-
-
- Development:
-
- AmiUp was written to install an "semi" automatic AmiNet mirror for the
- AMIGA Universe BBS (see support).
-
-
-
- Configuration:
-
- The configuration is not that simple as I would like it to be, sorry...
- You have to take a look at the script and edit it for the configuration
- of the file areas in your BBS. There are two parts of the script to be
- edited, the assignments of the AmiNet areas to your file areas and the
- file areas and names for the list requester. Both are marked in the
- script, so it shouldn't be too hard to find them.
-
-
-
- Usage:
-
- Simply unpack all new files from AmiNet in on directory and start the
- script using 'Sys:RexxC/Rx AmiUp.rexx'. It would bring up an reqtools
- requester where you can select the files. Multiselection is possible.
- AmiUp scans the files and tries to generate the filedescription and find
- out the filearea. If no description or area can be found, it pops up an
- requester and asks for the information.
-
- If you dont want AmiUp to pop up any requester, change the current
- directory to the one you unpacked the files in and start AmiUp with the
- line 'Sys:RexxC/Rx AmiUp.rexx BATCH'. The default file description and
- default file area will be used if AmiUp can't find it out.
-
-
-
- ToDo:
-
- Implement some logging and commandline options
- Simplyfy the configuration a bit
- Your suggestions ????
