The following is specific documentation for installing Tag Line
Xpress v4 into the following mail readers:
Silly Little Mail Reader (SLMR) v2.0 v2.1 v2.1a
Off Line Xpress (OLX) v2.1 v2.2 v3.0 v3.01 v3.02 v3.10 v3.5

MegaReader v2.1
Blue Wave v2.12
Blue Wave OS2
1stReader v1.11

If you experience double taglines with any reader, you can
either use the UNTAG utility provided with this package to
eliminate the secondary tagline; or disable the TLX Reader
Signature (from the TLX Configuration Menu, Tagline Settings).
Silly Little Mail Reader
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Tag Line Xpress installs automatically into Silly Little Mail
Reader (SLMR).
If you experience double taglines with SLMR, you can use the
UNTAG.EXE utility provided with this archive. From within SLMR,
modify the Configuration option PACKERS and add NEWZIP before
the compress command, e.g.
Old Option> PKZIP -A !
New Option> \path\NEWZIP PKZIP -A !
TLX will create a batch file called NEWZIP.BAT in the mail
reader directory, you should edit it and ensure that the file
reads:
\path\UNTAG %4
%1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
If you have changed your compress commands, change the UNTAG %
number to the parameter for the replies message file that is
compressed by the packer.
Advanced Information
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This information is provided only to satisfy curiosity, and
explain the process by which TLX works.
The following options are automatically modified by TLX within
the SLMR configuration:
ENABLETAGS - taglines will be disabled within SLMR - 01
REPLYHEADER - header on replies for the Quote Enhancer - Y
QSTYLE - quoting style for reply file generated (none) - 01
QSTRING - quote characters to use for reply file (none) -blank-
EDITOR - Editor name, \path\TLX //BC f *
SWAP - swapping enabled - Y
SWAPXMSEMS - EMS/XMS swapping enabled - Y
QUOTEDFILE - file that SLMR creates - REPLY.MSG

Off Line Xpress

Tag Line Xpress installs automatically into Off Line Xpress
versions 2 and 3.
In OLX v3.x - using the internal editor causes TLX to behave
differently. You have to press the F7 key to quote your reply,
and the F8 key to attach a tagline.

Deluxe²
~~~~~~~
Tag Line Xpress installs automatically into Deluxe².
There are two options you MUST change manually within Deluxe's
configuration; FLAGS "Show message header in your editor" to NO;
and SuperShell to YES. You should delete all the taglines stored
by Deluxe² and enter them into TLX instead.
If you experience double taglines with Deluxe², you can use the
UNTAG.EXE utility provided with this archive. Within the Deluxe²
Configuration file add NEWZIP.BAT before the compress command,
e.g.
Old Option> PKZIP -A
New Option> \path\NEWZIP.BAT PKZIP -A
TLX will create a batch file called NEWZIP.BAT in the mail
reader directory, you should edit it and ensure that the file
reads:
\path\UNTAG %4
%1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
If you have changed your compress commands, change the UNTAG %
number to the parameter for the replies message file that is
compressed by the packer.

The following options are automatically modified by TLX within
the Deluxe² configuration:
Editors - C:\path\TLX //BC f * %O
Show message header - NO (manually)
SuperShell - YES (manually)
Jabber
~~~~~~
Tag Line Xpress installs automatically into version 1.2 of
Jabber. Other versions have not been tested with TLX and are not
guaranteed to work.
If you experience double taglines with Jabber, you can use the
UNTAG.EXE utility provided with this archive. Within the Jabber
Configuration file add NEWZIP.BAT before the compress command,
e.g.
Old Option> {ZIP=PKZIP !}
New Option> {ZIP=\path\NEWZIP.BAT PKZIP !}
TLX will create a batch file called NEWZIP.BAT in the mail
reader directory, you should edit it and ensure that the file
reads:
\path\UNTAG %2
%1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
If you have changed your compress commands, change the UNTAG %
number to the parameter for the replies message file that is
compressed by the packer.

The following options are automatically modified by TLX within
the Jabber configuration file:
SWAP=Yes
SWAPEMS=Yes
QUOTE_QUOTE=No
QUOTE_REPLY=No
REPLYHEADER=Yes
PREPROCESS=\path\TLX //BC q C:\path\ @QUOTE@
POSTPROCESS=\path\TLX //BC t C:\path\ @QUOTE@
TAG_QUERY=Never
The batch file TLX_RUN.BAT contains the following:
\path\TLX //BC f * %1
TLX simply ties into the PRE and POST PROCESS options in Jabber.
However, there is apparently a small bug within v1.1 that does
not add the required message header to the reply file before TLX
can quote it - hence the quote enhancer does NOT work! When this
problem is fixed by the author, TLX will quote your messages. In
the meanwhile - if you use an external editor you can add the
TLX command line to a batch file to execute before calling your
editor; or assign an F
