Pager Plus -- Copyright (c) 1991 Prankware
Pager Plus was meant to be used with Galacticomm software BBSes. You simply
capture, with your term program, the list of users currently on, by using the
"#" command. Scroll back or just capture it halfway through and drop to a DOS
shell. From there, simply use the syntax:
page <infile> <outfile> [<message>]
...where <infile> is the file you captured to, <outfile> is the new file you
wish to write to, called the prank file, and [<message>] is the optional
message to go with the page, up to 60 characters long.
When you want to page everyone, which should be soon after you capture the
file, you simply type EXIT to exit the DOS shell, and do an ASCII upload. See
your term program documents for this. Enter the <outfile> or prank file, and
watch the pages fly through the screen... You're bound to get many replies!
Say "Hello!" to everyone, or be creative!
Watch in the future for other fine Prankware products...
