CS_DFED.EXE- <C>lassic <S>olitaire <D>ata <F>ile <ED>itor
---------------------------------------------------------
This is the editor for the data file CLASSIC.DF1.
If the user drops carrier, or the system hangs while a user is playing Classic,
they cannot finish the current days game.
This file is for the SysOp to manually change the "played" flag in the data
file at a users request. Please make a back up of CLASSIC.DF1 before running
the editor, after running this editor, be sure to check in the game to make
sure all is well.
What does it do?
1) It changes the "played" flag to false so the user can replay the day.
2) It reduces the monthly score by that days total.
3) It changes that days total to 0.
4) It reduces the number of days played by 1.
What doesn't it do?
1) If a player won a hand the day that is changed, it WILL NOT decrease
the number of games won. This total will be reflected incorrectly, but
this is cosmetic and should not cause a problem.
How do I do it?
1) Upon execution of CS_DFED.EXE, the program will check to see that
CLASSIC.DF1 is in the current directory. It will exit with a message if
it is not.
2) Next it will prompt you for the name of the user that needs to be changed.
This name must be entered EXACTLY as the BBS has it. (case insensitive)
3) If the name is found, CS_DFED will show all of the days and whether they
have been played or not, then it will prompt to enter the day to change.
4) Thats all you have to do, if the day is a valid day the program will make
the changes to CLASSIC.DF1 and report the progress as it does.
