A Tronix Developer's production by CJ aka Charles Sperber ...
Registration :
Trank v1.0 is a freeware production by Tronix Developers. If you would like
access to the Pascal source code, it is available though. Trank v1.0 was
written using Borland's Pascal v3.21d and including "common.pas" which was
written specifically for WWIV. Send $2.00 + $2.50 shipping & handling to
the following address:
P.O. Box #365

Disclaimer :
Tronix Developers cannot and will not be held responsible for any
problems which may occur while using Trank v1.0 It has been
extensively tested under extreme conditions yielding harmless results.
If you encounter an error message please report this problem to
CJ aka Charles Sperber.
Purpose :
The purpose of Trank v1.0 is to display the top player from ranked
datafiles. Take for instance Trade Wars 2002 which creates ranked
datafiles. By specifying certain parameters Trank v1.0 will read the
datafile and display the top player.
Defines :
Trank v1.0 is called by command line parameters. To make this easier to
understand here's an example.
ALIAS WINS
-----------------------
CJ 101
DICEMAN 93
OSIRIS 08
As you can see, the alias CJ is the overall top player. Therefore you
would set up Trank to read line number 3 starting with character 1 and
ending with character 20.
Command line parameters :
( player's datafile ) - the text datafile containing ranked names
( line number ) - the line number the top player is stored
( # of starting char. ) - the starting character # of the top player
( # of ending char. / or E ) - the ending character # or 'e' for end of line
( name of program ) - the name of the program
( /p - pause ) - optional - /p will pause the screen else ignored
Instructions :
1. Pkunzip your Trank v1.0 archieve. ( This should already be done. )
2. Type "trank.exe" for a listing of command line parameters.
Thank you for choosing Tronix Developer's software,
