USERSTAT - The user statistics program
ver 2.0 documentation
Legal shit: Please don't distribute changed versions. I am not
responsible if this software eats your hard drive. I am not
liable for any damages or loss of time if this software does not
perform as expected. I make no guarantees as to the suitability
of this software for any purpose, not even that for which it was
designed.
The SOURCE CODE is NOT for distribution after you have modified
it. You may ONLY distribute the UNMODIFIED executables. (just
like WWIV)..
Compatibilty: This software has been run under MS-DOS 3.2 on an
Compaq Deskpro and a Cheap Noname tawainese clone. It has run
on a IBM PS/2 both models 25 and 30 under PC-DOS 3.3 and Novell
Netware. It is designed to work with any version of WWIV v4.x
Ok. Enough of that. Using USERSTAT on your WWIV system is
pretty easy. There are two methods of doing so. The first is
to make it the "Daily" external event. This can be set in the
INIT program. If you don't know how, read your docs.
Secondly, it can be set up to run as an "online" program.
It uses DOS interupts, and does not require ANSI.
The program itself.. This program will generate three text files
of the 10 best and 10 worst users in three separate catagories.
(One for each text file, clever huh?) This text files will be
placed in your GFILES directory in a sub directory called
USERSTAT. <<YOU MUST CREATE THIS DIRECTORY>> Simply type CD
GFILES (or whatever your GFILES directory is called) and MD
USERSTAT. Now you will want to add a "GFILEEDIT" entry for
these text files. but first, run the program once. Drop to dos
and type:
USERSTAT /F /U /P
(repeat this with the /a option if you want
the full color ANSI lists as well)
this will create the three text files. Now run WWIV, type G from
the WFC. Now add an entry for the USERSTAT directory. Log on,
go to that entry.. Type A .. You can now enter whatever
descriptive names you would like..
The file FMRATIO.MSG is the listing of the best and worst users
using the formula of:
[Upload K + (Number of Posts * xK)] / Download K
where x is set by the sysop with the /K parameter. Defaults
to 3K per post.
The file UDRATIO.MSG is the listing of the best and worst users
using the formula of:
Upload K / Download K
Pretty simple huh..
The file PTRATIO.MSG is the listing of the best and worst users
using the formula of:
Number of Posts / Number of Logons
Also rather simple.
The command line options for USERSTAT are as follows:
/S Don't count sysop in calculations
/U Generate Upload/Download List
/P Generate Post/Logon List
/F Generate Formula ratio list (my personal favorite)
/Lxx Don't count users with less than xx logons
/Kxx Count each post as xx K worth of uploads in the Formula List
/D Display Dedication line, and my BBS phone number.
/? Display a small help screen..
/A Generate ANSI messages... (end in .ANS instead of .TXT)
/Nxx Let's sysop specify number of users to print for each
category 1 < xx < 99...
/T Generate tables of ALL users instead.
