- Robs Quoter Version .01 Beta
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Well, after searching for an easy to quoter I finally decided screw it I'll
- write my own! Well here it is, there are only a few quotes (I'm tired and
- can't remember anymore).
-
- This Quoter should work on any BBS that has a file that could be updated.
- It will either create a new quote file for you or will append an existing
- one.
-
- Configuration File
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
- Y/N (Do You Want An ANSI Quote Produced)
- D:\BASIC\TEST1.ASC (Path To ASCII Quote)
- D:\BASIC\TEST1.ANS (Path To ANSI Quote If Used)
- C (Append an existing file or Create a new one)
-
- That's all you need to get the program running. From there simply type ROB and
- the quote will be generated. Should you want to add quotes simply do the
- following: Open the ROB.QUO file with any ASCII editor. Before each new quote
- place a ~ by itself and a carriage return. After the last quote do not place
- the ~ character. Save the file and type COMP. Then your new quotes will be
- included in the list.
-
- A note about APPENDING files. This feature will continue adding even if there
- is a quote already attached to the file. So here's an example of a batch file
- to use before quoteing:
-
- CLS
- IF EXIST D:\BASIC\TEST1.ANS DEL D:\BASIC\TEST1.ANS
- COPY D:\BASIC\BACK\TEST1.ANS D:\BASIC\TEST1.ANS
- ROB
-
- Always keep a back up without any quotes on it, delete the old quote,copy it
- to the working directory and then run the program.
-
- Anyways this program is free to anyone who wishes to use it under the condition
- that it is not modified and is left entirely in it's orignal form (SOURCE CODE)
-
- Other than that you are free to distribute it or any ROB.QUO databases you may
- use. The source code may eventually be released but that is a few versions
- away.
-
- The next version will include a door program so users may add their own quotes!
- Till Then!
