┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ ICFILEBS.TXT * N E W * │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
With 2.70 upgrade version & the change in menu for the ICFILE, auto
icon scanner, I added and area at the bottom where you can have
information about your BBS or what ever for your users to read while
wait for an icon scan to be completed. The ICFILEBS.TXT I have
include tells a little about RIP & GUIs. If you wish to edit or
change this then just edit the text with a text editor. You can only
have 4 line 77 character wide.. if you add any more, it just won't
get read in.
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ MAININFO.ANS or Create your own MAINMENU.RIP screen!! │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
This used to be MAININFO.TXT. It is now .ANS so you can add ANSI
(escape codes) to it for color, using a program like The Draw.
You can also put @-Codes in it, but only the @-Codes that IconUpDater
can recognize.... see MENUS.TXT
Also if you use The Draw, make sure you move the end of page pointer
to the last line of text or it will keep scrolling off the text window.
Edit this file to say what ever you want, up to 47 charters per line,
21 lines max. Your text will be displayed just below the main menu!
This will be display in the big black whole on the Main menu. Edit
MAINinfo.txt to suit your BBS!
If IconUpDater is Registered you can create your own RIPgraphics menu
screens! The file name for the Main Menu has to be: "MAINMENU.RIP" and
must be in the same DIR as Iconupd.exe.
You can also make your own downlaod menu on the registered version!
That file has be in the IconUpDater DIR and has to be called:
"DOWNMENU.RIP"
note: I have only selected to support RIP custom user menus.
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ USERLOG.TXT │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
This file is created to tell you who downloaded what and when. IF you
delete this file, becuase it gets to long or something, IconUpDater will
just create another one. It just keeps APPENDing USERLOG.TXT forever,
so it's a good idea to delete this file every so often.

│ ICONUPD.KEY and my CODE │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
For reasons beyond beyond my control ( people who krack KEYs ), I will
possibly create a new KEY file for each major version. If you are a
registered IconUpDater User, you will have special access priviledges
to DUOnline, which will enable to quickly login and Run the Registered
IconUpDater KEY program directly from the IconUpDater Menu. This will
allow long distance caller to download there new KEY in a matter of
minutes. Realize that I will not have this get out of hand, to the
point that you will have to call in every month or something like that.
DUOnline is also in the process of Building a dedicated RIP support
file area, where you can get the latest RIP stuff; like screens, Icons
and support files.
------------
The IconUpDate and all other Ryan Andersen Software files are now
encoded... if you attemp to change to EXE files in any way the
program wil bomb.... HARD!
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ And By the way.... │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
Local Downloading is now available... why? Oh, I guess some people
like to test that they have specified the proper path in their
DNICON.CFG file. Realize that just because IconUpDater is working
locally, it may not be working remotely. The best test is to have
someone call in and test it.
Also try this...
Call IconUpDater from a remote system with RIPterm or WCpro w/RIP
and click on the "IconUpDater ver #"...
Enjoy...
