alias of the users. What you do choose to

bulletins created by TriTUS.
Line #10 Enter a "Y", (Upper or Lower case) if you
want the name/alias of the sysop & co-sysop

Notes About the TRITUS.CFG File.
- The path to your USERS.DAT file MUST include the filename.
- The path to your MONO and ANSI bulletins MUST include the
filename of both your MONO and ANSI bulletins.
- If you choose to have TriTUS search for the real name of
the users, the real names will appear in the bulletins.
If you choose to have TriTUS search for the alias of the
users, the alias will appear in the bulletins. NOTE: If
a user did not enter an alias which is different from
his/her real name, then his/her real name will appear in
the bulletins.
3. TriTopUsersStats is executed with the following command.....
TRITUS
TriTopUsersStats can be executed from the TriBBS BETWEEN.BAT file, which
will result in TriTopUsersStats creating updated bulletins between each
each call. Therefore, using a text editor, edit the BETWEEN.BAT file
located in your main TriBBS directory, and add the required information
as shown in the example below.
TRITUS
Note: For additional information on the use of the BETWEEN.BAT file,
please refer to your TriBBS manual.
TriTopUsersStats can also be executed by using the "event" feature. of TriBBS.
This would be handy if you did not want the bulletins created by
TriTopUsersStats to be updated between each call to your BBS. Using
an "event" would also reduce the time between callers to get the BBS
back to the Wait For Callers screen.
Note: For additional information on the use of the "event" features
please refer to your TriBBS manual.
MAINTENANCE:
============
None, unless you want to change some of the information in the
TRITUS.CFG file.
PROBLEMS:
========
Hopefully, there will not be any problems. But if you encounter any,
please let me know.
