======================================================================
* Files *
1: CLASIFAD.M The source file for the want ads. Make changes to this
if you need the files on different drives. then
compile and put in your BBS folder. Then run it from
any menu. I would suggest running gamein.m & gameout.m
before and after as this MCL uses almost all of the
variables.
(*NOTE*)
All the rest of these files must go into a folder named WANTAD
and put on drive D: if you dont want to modify CLASIFAD.M
1: SELL.1 This is the first For Sale ad and it must be there
for the MCL to run correctly. I just put a Welcome
message in mine. All future For Sale ads will be
named in ascending order ie. SELL.2, SELL.3, ...
if you delete any of these you must rename all files
that follow so they stay in order ie if you delete
SELL.2 and SELL.3 & SELL.4 follow. You must rename
SELL.3 to SELL.2 & SELL.4 to SELL.3 if you dont then
when it list the ads out they will be one ad off. If
you delete a SELL file you also must edit a file called
SELL.NUM I'll tell you about this when I get to this
files discription.
2: WANT.1 Exactly like SELL.1 eccept these are for your Wanted Ads
3: SELL.NUM A file used to keep count of the for sale ads. All you
have to remember is when you delete a SELL file and
then rename them take the last file and make this file
equal to its number ie. last file is SELL.5 edit this
file and make the number in it 5.
4: WANT.NUM Exactly like SELL.NUM eccept this is for WANT files
5: CLASIF.HLP This is just a text file that users will see when they
post an ad.
All of the stuff I said about renaming files is important but
dont be scared by it. An average BBS could run for months before you
had to do any of this. Also if you have any further Questions feel
free to call my BBS \/\/ave B.B.S. (313) 775-3957 and I'll be glad to
help ya.
