PowerBBS 1.51
Features MULTI-Language capabilties. Also includes MULTI-Phone
configurations for different languages.
Just about ALL the internal english text can now be editted via
CONFIG [E].
** NEW Professional ICONS in 1.51! (Thank you Tim Jones)
** Added Standard Hayes ATH logoff mode. You can now select either to use
** either the DTR to drop callers, or the ATH mode to do this. This option
** is YOURS in the Latest CONFIG!
** Featuring MULTI Language Support. All Internal text can be editted in
** CONFIG (New Option [E])
** You can create different data records for different languages.
** OR you can just edit the text, to make your bbs user friendly,
** or business friendly.
ALSO: If you run MULTI-LANGUAGES, you must specify the phone number
setup for EACH language. For example, the following specify the correct
specification for the countries specified:
US: (###) ###-####
France: ##-##-##-##
Germany: ##-##-#####
England: ###-###-###
You are limited to 14 characters, but you can specify the phone number any
way you like for each language. The # is where a number would go. Any
other text would be displayed, and saved.
ANYONE with suggestions for the up-coming version, feel free to leave
me a message.

*****************************************************************************
PowerBBS 1.49 - 7/7/91 - Update Information
Screen display is now 28 lines, permitting for a full 25 usage of the screen,
plus 3 lines for the user info. This also eliminates any ANSI.SYS problems
for a full 25 line display!
Check Marks were added to the toggle menu, giving you the ability to know if
an item is toggled or not.
Menu commands, not in use when no callers are online, are now greyed and
disabled till a caller is online.
Non-Intensity Colors are now displayed on the SysOps side, as part of the
internal ANSI.SYS.
*****************************************************************************
PowerBBS 1.48 - 6/26/91 - Update Information
* True Windows Menus have been implemented, replacing the old sysop
capabilities via the f keys
* True CONNECT is displayed when the baud rate is locked.
PowerBBS 1.47 - 6/21/91 - Update Information
* The USER file MUST BE converted to this version, using CONVPOWR.EXE.
* Forum limit is now 201 forums (from 0 to 200)
* The SECURITY LEVEL DATAFILE, must be newly editted. It now contains
an option for a MONTHLY download byte limit. The number entered in
config is in MEGABYTES, so if 5 is entered, 5 MEGABYTES would be the
download byte limit for that month (for that security level).
* The MACRO |MDBL| was added for the current MAXIMUM download bytes
available for the month, in k bytes.
PowerBBS 1.46 - 6/17/91 - Update Information
* Files listing limit is now 50, (was 26)
* Events are now operational. Please note that a WAIT command is required.
Here is a sample event file:
c:\powrbbs\stats c:\powrbbs\data\users c:\powrbbs\screen\hello4 10 5 100
\powrbbs\wait 300
* Fixed a bug in the copy procedure, which was used to copy files to
different drives. It is working fine now.
* Doors for Windows are now operationable.
Here is how to set up the BlackJack for Windows door:
C:\Powrbbs\BlackJk.exe C:\Powrbbs\Powrbbs.dat
That is what you type for the Live Program Filename. Whenever PowerBBS
reads a .EXE in the live program filename, it assumes it is a
Windows application. This way, an extra option is not needed. If you
are setting up DOS live programs, be sure that you use a batch file
here, NOT AN .EXE file.
NEW: For multiline systems, if you are using WINDOWS DOORS such as the
above, your live.dat file should be DIFFERENT on EVERY NODE.
