│ ABOUT THE PROGRAM │
└──────────────────────────────┘
This program is for the Sysop who (a) runs an unregistered WWIV, (b) or does
not like to modify the source code to include the excellent mods that make
this seem an integral part of the board rather than a kludge, (c) or does
not have the time to install one of those mods. This kludge will give the
sysop a way to use quote features by editing a message that has been saved
with the E command. One of the small things that this does is save the
edited message in the main BBS directory. So, the original is saved in G-
Files and the edited version in the bbs directory. It will have the same
file name, however. It may be sent by the sysop after using the editor, if
he types //LOAD and gives the file name at the prompt. He DOES NOT have to
give the full-path any longer.
The user's job is a little more difficult because if he does not have FULL-
SYSOP access, he has no way to easily save the message on the board. Thus,
the remote user must make a screen capture of the message to be edited, and
then use the //UPLOAD feature to send it back to the board. After uploading
the file is in the TEMP directory. The kludge will save it there also after
it is edited, so then all he needs to do is use either E or P to mail or
post the message.
The user and the Sysop MUST be using a Full-Screen Editor or this kludge
will not work. Let me know if you like it.
Version 0.80 Beta version of 2-10-90. Program was conceived and written
on this day. If you have suggestions, complaints, etc.,
please let me know. My WWIVnet address is 1 @5252.
