Welcome to a new advanced Paging method. This most unique pager program
is fully captible with all system.
How to use this program.
For WildCat users, you can make this your
Page instead of the regular internal page.
All others can do the same, if your software supports the DOOR.SYS.
Or make this as an door. Basically that is all there is to
need to know about the program. I run it on my system
and I don't have no problems whatsoever. I would like to thank
the author who wrote the program PIANOMAN.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
SOMETHING NEW!
I have added an on-line chat, which allows you to answer the page inside
of the door, instead of having to exit the program.
The program supports COM Ports 1 to 4 STANDARD IRQ LINES!
The program has been set up for 8,N,1 (8) Word Length, (N) No Parity, (1) Stop
bit, baud rates are supported up to 57,600... If you have any problems
please contact my BBS or Support board at the above number!
These are new features...
Also, more Bugs have been cleaned up.. We used to have a problem with the
Menu, when a user would not select the proper command and they were in
ASCII mode (no color) it would then start giving them color. This was not
good. I have fixed that, so that should be something you will like..
I am still in need of more Comments, so far all the comments and registrations
I have received are coming in great! I am taking them into consideration with
newer releases. Keep them coming and I will keep producing the new versions.
Also, if you have REGISTERED this program and have not yet received your
updated version please let me know, and I will get it to you.. ALL
REGISTRATION codes are different in all of the NEW releases...
UPDATE on SB Pager, we are still experiencing bugs on Lock ups and that kind
of thing but we are working on it!
Also, the SSP 2.01 now has the abilty of reading the DOOR.SYS file to check
and see if your Pager is on.. There is no need for External Programs now.
So if you are running a BBS that you can turn your Page ON and OFF, then
that's how you can switch SSP ON and OFF.. That is another added feature.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
NEW IN 2.02
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
We were expierencing some techinical problems with the program, when the
COMM port was higher than 2400. Anotherwards, Locked Baud rates. I have
fixed this bug, by adding a special feature in the SETUP202 program, which
allows you to choose the Baud Rate you are locking your COMM port at, if
you are even locking your port. I thank everyone in the effort in
registering this program. We are hoping to add more Beta Test Sites.
Good luck, any problems please contact me......
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------NEW IN VERSION 2.03----------------------------
Also, these features are new: We now have the FUNCTION keys operating...
F5 = DROP TO DOS
F6 = ANSWER PAGE
F8 = EXIT CHAT AND RETRUN TO THE BBS
F7 = TWIT
Before you had to select a letter like 'S' for Drop to Dos, and any user
could do it, if he/she knew the command. Now that problem is fixed, with
the use of the Function keys.
Now, we have been working on this problem for a long time,
Q: When a user drop's carrier, it won't return to the BBS, Why?
A: The reason for this was because we had an timer switched on, which would
only return if the user was still on-line. Well, that's not the way we wanted
it, we wanted to know, when a User Dropped carrier. Now, we do know. After
a few months of research I finanlly found the statement to do it. And the
funny thing is, it was right under my nose.
So, now the SysOp Super Pager will return to the BBS when a User Drop's
carrier. NO MORE LOCK UPS, or tieing up the system!!!
A new file that the SysOp Super Pager creates. The SysOp Super Pager now
creates a file called 'ACTIVITY.LOG' it's records whe you enter and exit
chat, and it also records when a user drops carrier. This file is created
by the SSP after you have entered chat once with a user. Or a user drops
carrier. It is not included in the Archive because it doesn't need to be.
So, don't panic if you can't find it. It is created in the SSP directory.
The Chat Bug!
We had a chat bug, you guys probably didn't like the shouting at the users,
so we fixed that. Now you can use Upper/Lower case.
Backspacing in chat!
Q: When I backspace I get a funny looking character.
A: That was because there was a major programming goofup! But, it's now
perfected and the backspacing feature now works!
Q: There was no Locked baud Rate for 38,400, Why?
A: I do apologize thats what happen when you get to writting 3 or more programs
at once. I have now added the 38,400 support back. Thanks for pointing
this one out!
That's it for this version...
In are next release of SysOp Super Pager, you will be able to run an
external chat program for Split Screen chat. Also, in the next version
for registered users only, you will be able to Add more music to the
pager menu. Also, you will be able to play MOD files, with a program
that will be included with the pager.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The questions asked above were brought to my attention by SysOps and my
Beta test Site's. Thanks guys for helping me out and keeping my head
glued on!
