! Means bugfix
+ New Feature
= Removed
* Changed
+ - Added the possibility to create *.RIP files with Statistics.
+ - Just press anywhere F1 for Online-help, seems to be a nice
feature ;-)
+ - Added the Scheduler, to post/execute a certain file on daily,
weekly, 2-weekly, 3-weekly, monthly, 2-monthly and exact base.
+ - Added a very powerful feature, the points system, to give 'credits'
(positive and negative) file points for a kb or file upload.
+ - Now it's possible to write Welcome Message while the user is for the
first time online. This is only possible by an Execution from an
.ANS/.ASC/.AVT or *.Q-A file! (Please read the doc of your BBS
package if it supports executing from an .ANS/.ASC/.AVT file!)
Example .ANS/.ASC/.AVT :
With most packages it will work if this textline is added -
'^XI:\AMP\AMP.EXE WUO |'
Example *.Q-A :
for Ra 1.1x/2.0x add the line 'EXEC I:\AM\AMP.EXE WUO'
for PB 1.3x/2.0x add the line 'EXEC "I:\AM\AMP.EXE WUO" '
(Commandline switch is 'WUO')
+ - A number of options are added to the AMPDoor :
- Change Ratio? : If the user should be upgraded/downgraded
online, instead of AMP itself.
If set to no, the user won't be upgraded/
downgraded online!
- Show someThing? : If no Ratio setting is found for the user
and the Default must not be shown, and
there is no upgrade of some kind, should
AM_Door show something, or just run to the
BBS.
- Use Ratio Default? : Should the default Ratio setting be
shown if no Ratio setting is found?
- No free Download? : Should the Free download be substracted from
from the download?
If set to No then ratio checking will be
preformed if the user exceed this value
with his downloads, but the Free download
isn't 'free' anymore, the user must
upload the value also.
+ - Setup file and Data file are now locked while AMP is running,
if the file is locked, AMP will exit with a message (ExitCode: #405
and #406)
* - Statistics now uses less memory.
+ - Inbound/Outbound History Statistics are added.
It's also possible to exclude Addresses from the Report, and
it is also possible to Replace/Change System names AND/OR Addresses.
Mailers like InterMail, FrontDoor, D'Bridge etc are supported.
+ - Statistics, Today callers to BBS, is now working, finally ;-)

To find the editor, just give in (for example Q.EXE) Q, and
AMsetup will search his path for the Q.* file.
+ - Added the possibility to address a specific nodenumber (Aka) to
a message. (1 Main + 19 Akas possible)
* - Added a new key-system, if you registered and still haven't you
new registration key, please contact your local registration-site
or Alexander Kuiper directly. The upgrade is FREE!

1000% (Now, AMSetup will only switch the memory pointers, and
not the whole setting...;-))
+ - Added a Shell to Dos in AMSetup (Just press ALT-Z anywhere)
* - Archivering the Userbase files is changed, in the 0.50g all the

ZIP : USERS.Z??
ARJ : USERS.J??
LHA : USERS.L??
ARC : USERS.A??
UC2 : USERS.U??
SQZ : USERS.S??
RAR : USERS.R??
If you don't want to archive the userbase files, just copying them,
the file would like like : USERS*.B?? (example USERS.B01,
USERSXI.B01,USERSPB.B01 and so on...)
* - The logging of errors/warnings is completely rewritten, to
give more information about the Error(s).
! - Fixed a minor bug in statistics for Ra 1.1x

* - The Commandline is changed, it's now also possible to overrule the
default setting in the Setup file, and setting it On OR Off.

but -W and -WELCOME disables the newuser checking!

type : '/F=<Setup FileName>'
AMPsetup just needs the name of the Setup file and nothing more.
