AutoBiography version 1.00ß3.
Copyright 1994-1995 by Doug Kalman. All Rights Reserved.
Upgrading from version 1.00ß2 to version 1.00ß3.
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
This is simply a bug-fix release. Overwrite all your AB
executables with the new versions. See FIXES.100 for a full
list of repairs. This is THE FINAL BETA. Expect another
release before the end of the summer.
Upgrading from version 1.00ß1 to version 1.00ß2 or 1.00ß3.
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
Create a temporary holding directory and Unzip the contents of the
AB100B2.ZIP archive into it.
Copy ALL three executables to your AB system directory.
Copy the NOTIFY.ASC and NOTIFY.ANS files to your AB system directory.
Make the necessary command changes for both AB.EXE and ABUTIL.EXE.
The command line syntax has changed for AB.EXE and ABUTIL.EXE.
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
- The node number needs to be specified on the command line. This
information is no longer gathered from the DOOR.SYS file. The syntax
is /N### where ### is replaced by the node number. If omitted the
node 1 will be assumed.
- ABUTIL.EXE now requires that you specify the name of a textfile which
will be displayed to users that have not yet created an AutoBiography
entry. Use the syntax /Tfilename. DO NOT ADD THE EXTENSION.
Examples:
ab.exe /h /n3
invoked using handles from node 3
abutil.exe /h /n11 /tnotify
invoked using handles from node 11, send the NOTIFY.A?? files to
users who have not yet created an AutoBiography entry.
