QTIME 1.8
A FREE Program
By Joseph Sheppard
Sysop, The Ledge PCBoard (818) 896-4015
This program is a quick easy way to create a file telling when a
function last occurred. It is written with BBS Sysops in mind, and
often used to report the date and time of Echo Mail transfers, but has
other uses as well.
It will write your personalized message followed by the the current
time, day and date. Depending on how you set the program up, it
produces either ASCII and ANSI files or a single PCBoard @x color code
compatible file.
Usage is:
QTIME <DRIVE:\DIRECTORY\CONFIG_FILE_NAME>
Example:
QTIME C:\PCB\QTIME.CNF
The .CNF file can have any valid DOS name and extension. This allows
you to use Qtime to stamp several different files with variable
messages. The .CNF file must look like this:
QTIME
ANSI
This Version of Qtime was Released at
═
Descriptions:
Line 1: Path and name of time/date stamped file to create
Line 2: Color method. ANSI for ANSI codes, PCBOARD for PCBoard compatible
@x codes.
Line 3: Message to write before time and date stamps.
Line 4: Character to build stripe inserted at top and bottom of Qtime
output (leave a blank line for no stripes)
Line 5: Color Code to use for top stripe
Line 6: Color Code to use for date & time line
Line 7: Color Code to use for bottom stripe
This .CNF file would cause Qtime to produce ASCII and ANSI files named
NEWS and NEWSG in your C:\PCB\GEN directory that look like this:
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
This Version of Qtime was Released at 8:21 pm, Friday, November 26, 1993
════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════
If the word PCBOARD were placed on line 2 of the .CNF file, and
valid PCBoard color codes were placed on lines 5, 6 and 7, a
single PCBoard @x color code compatible file would be produced.
Only one file is produced because PCBoard automatically strips out
color codes when callers are in non-graphics mode.
