French Mod Division Voting Booth
v1.1
JUNIOR VERSION
Copyright (C) 1995 FMD Software
┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ INTRODUCTION │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
This is the junior version of the French Mod Division Voting Booth (FVB),
which is in fact, a very few enhanced WWIV external voting booth that will
replace your stock version to save code and Dgroup space.
This voting booth will allow your users to view results and have an auto-vote
feature, besides those, it just looks like the stock WWIV voting booth.
┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ REQUIREMENTS │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
■ Hardware Requirements
- An IBM PC, AT, ix86, PS/2 or 100% IBM BIOS compatible PC
- A hard disk with at least 100k of disk space available
- A monochrome or color monitor
■ Software requirements
- Microsoft or IBM PC DOS v3.0 or above
- WWIV BBS v4.xx or above (Faster on v4.24)
- An ANSI driver must be loaded. (ANSI.SYS or ZANSI.SYS)
This software is able to share files, but you must load SHARE.EXE if you
run it in a multi-tasking environment and plan to use it on many nodes at the
time.
┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ PROGRAM AUTHENTICITY │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
FVB has been archived with PKWARE's PKZIP 2.04g using Authenticity
Verification. When you unzip the archive, you should see "-AV" displayed
after every file name. When completed, a message that looks like this will
be displayed:
Authentic files Verified! # NWC217
French Mod Division Softwares
If this authenticity statement is not displayed, or the authenticity code is
not "NWC217", then you have a copy of FVB that has been tampered with.
Do >not< use any of the files contained within a tampered archive, as they
may contain viruses, trojans, or other harmful things.
FVB has also been encrypted by a powerful encryption program. If the
executable file is tampered with, it will display a CRC warning and will not
run.
┌────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ INSTALLATION │
└────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
You can use FVBjr in 3 different ways:
■ As a door.
■ As a logon event.
■ As a replacement for the internal voting booth.
To be run as a door, follow the following instructions, to be run from inside
the BBS, install the required modification to the WWIV source code and only
copy VOTE.EXE in your main WWIV directory.
The setup of the French Mod Division Voting Booth Jr is very easy. If you run
it as a door, run the config door. From inside WWIV, it's like the old way,
type //IVOTES from the main menu.
■ Running as a door (set up for WWIV v4.xx)
This is actually the door setup for the French Mod Division voting
booth Jr. Do as you like. Set the security level to the level you want
your users to vote.

■ Using French Mod Division Voting Booth Jr from inside WWIV.
For this option, you need to have registered WWIV before. You
need a C compiler (Borland C++ v3.1+ recommanded) and you must
have the WWIV Source Code and know how to compile a BBS.EXE.
Then, follow the instructions of the modification files FMD-06x.MOD
that is included in the archive.
If you have any problems, get in contact with us and we'll help
you to install it.
■ Using French Mod Division Voting Booth as a logon event:
Pre-v4.24
Run INIT.EXE or WWIVsys (r) and edit the logon event string to be:
vote %C /L
v4.24 and newer:
Run WWIVsys or edit WWIV.INI and edit the following lines:
SPAWNOPT[LOGON] = INTERNAL, COMIO, SHRINK, NOPAUSE, TOPSCREEN
LOGON_CMD = vote %C /L
You should find both in WWIV.INI
