REG.EXE v1.01
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1..Purpose
2..Installation
3..How do I access it
4..Pif File
5..About
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1..Purpose
Allows connected stations to add their details to your
ADDRESS.TXT file
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
2..Installation
Copy all files to C:\WINPACK\EXTERN
Files List: REG.EXE 3,968 bytes main program
REG.PIF 967 bytes
REG.DOC
The program will only work in the C:\WINPACK\EXTERN directory
so if you have installed WINPACK to a different directory such
as C:\RADIO\WINPACK then this program will not work for you .
You can then amend your connect text to notify people of the
addition of this server to your system
eg. WINPACK v6.1, /HELP for help, /REG to record your details
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
3..How do I access it
Just type /REG while connected to WINPACK from remote or from
the WINPACK screen
Remeber external programs require WinPack versions > 5.1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
4..The Pif File
The supplied .PIF file was set up under WIN95 and should be OK for
anyone using WINPACK under WIN95 installed in C:\WINPACK . If you
installed WINPACK to a directory other than C:\WINPACK you *MUST*
setup the REG.PIF file properly
In the .PIF file the command line should be:
<drive> <path> REG.EXE
and the working directory should be:
<drive> <path> extern\
where <drive> is the dirve letter of the drive that WINPACK is
installed on and <path> is the path to the WINPACK directory so
as an example if you installed in D:\RADIO\WINPACK youe command
line would be D:\RADIO\WINPACK\REG.EXE and the working directory
would be D:\RADIO\WINPACK\EXTERN\
I have tried the program under WIN 3.* and it seems to run OK .
There are sometimes problems with the report sent back to the user
as to what details have been recorded . If you use it under 3.*
let me know what happens and I will try to tidy it up if there are
problems .
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
5..About
REG.EXE and is still crude and simple but seems to work .
Anyway if it thrashes your ADDRESS.TXT or causes your cat to have
kittens I accept no responsibility .
If you have problems then let me know and I will see if I can
solve the problem for you . One known problem is that it is not
too worried about neat formatting of its entries in ADDRESS.TXT
V1.00
First release (or is the word escape?)
v1.01
Consolidation of REG.EXE and REG1.COM into a single program
Removal of REG.BIN
Minor updates to texts used
v1.02
Removed the path dependency and the server should now work with
any WINPACK directory that it is installed to instead of just
the C:\WINPACK directory
