- ***- Textfiles Module -***
- - Version 1.0 -
- By: Scott Szretter
- (C)1991-1992 Scott Szretter - Please see the file "COPYRITE.SPS"
-
- This is a module that will allow your users to view text files - list what are
- available, then select which to view...
- Text files can be restricted by security level.
-
- To install the module, copy it with resedit (it should be called
- 'bulletins' in the distibution arcive) into the mubbs modules file -
- renumbering if necessary.
-
- There should be a folder called 'textfiles' in the same directory as your
- 'modules' file.
-
- This folder should contain:
- modulename.info - Information about the text files available & security
- modulename.help - The user help screen
- modulename.intro - The introduction screen
- (Where modulename is the name of the module. ('textfiles') in the
- distribution archive.)
- Edit these files with a plain text editor like Jolliwrite, or Vantage, or
- MacWrite and save as text.
-
- To call the module, simply call it by it's name.
-
- When the module is called, it will present the user with a list of 10 (0-10)
- text files to display. The user simply types the number to view, or:
- "Q)uit" will simply exit the user back to the calling module or menu.
- "F)iles_available" will give the user a list of the available text files.
- "H)elp" will display the file gfiles.help in the wish folder.
- (modulename.help)
-
- NOTE: Edit the .info file with a text editor. The first line is the security
- level for the first file to be displayed. The second line is the name
- (filename) of the file to be displayed - the is the actual name showed to the
- user... And so on... Example Below:
-
- 5 < Security Level to view (1st file).
- "TFile 1" < The 1st text file - the user sees this name.
- 2 < Security level to view (2nd text file)
- "TFile 2" < This is the 2nd text file - user sees this.
- 6 < Security level to view third file.
- "Tfile 3" < Third text file - user sees this name
-
-
- This module has been tested, but I take no responsibility for any damages
- that may occur from using this module.

- *** CHANGES IN Bulletins ***
-
- 1.0 -> 1.0 ... !! Changed the name (gfiles to textfiles). Also made it
- simpler to use for the user. You can only display 0-9
- files now. I may make seperate sections in the future.
- (0-9 in section 1, 0-9 in section 2, etc...).
