MEXPAND(1) FNORDADEL BBS SOFTWARE MEXPAND(1)
NAME
mexpand.tos - expand the message base
SYNOPSIS
mexpand
DESCRIPTION
Mexpand allows the Sysop to expand his message base. The
program will report the current size of the message base,
and ask for the new size in kBytes. The new number must be
a multiple of 4K, or it will be rounded up to the nearest
4K. Mexpand will then do its dirty work and report the new
size when it is finished.
You MUST change #messagek in ctdlcnfg.sys and reconfigure
the BBS. Simply reconfiguring without changing ctdlcnfg.sys
will result in an ugly mess. Don't do it.
OPTIONS
None.
NOTES
This program will only expand the message base. The message
base can be shrunk using mshrink.tos, but it's better to
pick the size right in the first place. (-:
