Short info
--------------------------
This tool may be especially useful for all you BBS SysOps, running your
boards on MAX's BBS software. Up to now there was no complex utility
allowing you to keep your whole BBS in order, so if you are looking for
something like this, try the first one: W.F.M.H. Max Manager

Demo version
--------------------------
Program included in this archive is supposed to be demonstration
version of MaxManager. Demo version is crippled a bit. All SAVE function
and almost all internal file access routines are unavailable until
you register. Few other smaller functions won't work too.
Distribution
--------------------------
W.F.M.H. MaxManager is a shareware program. You may freely
distribute it as long as all of its files are included in their
original form without additions, deletions, or modifications of any
kind, and only a nominal fee is charged for its distribution. It cannot
be distributed as a part of commercial product without author's written
permission. If you like it and use it, the author encourage you to
register. The shareware fee is USA $20. Registered users will be
shipped a disk containing the latest release version of MaxManager.By
cooperating with this concept you help to ensure continued development
of this product. Please send your registration card (Orderform) and
money (cash) to address below.
Requirements
--------------------------
W.F.M.H. MaxManager requires at least MAX's BBS databases to work on
and MUI3.0 (as it takes adventage of Balancing Groups, Bubble Helps and
Drag'n'Drop) to run.

Remember: amount of users of this kind of tool won't rather be greater than
total number of MAX's BBS running worldwide, so if you steal this program
there simply won't be newer version anymore. Just remember: program worth
using is worth buying. Support shareware!
Program history:
--------------------------------------
(20.11.95)
- First public release
(24.11.95)
- Second release - compiled with 68000 codes (sorry for
previous 040 version... :(
(07.01.96)
- From now MaxManager is MUI3+ requireable!
- Balancing groups added (taste it in main or config window)
- Preferences and config files moved to "Config" subdir
- External support for SleepIcon added
- Fixed bug in MUI notification in EditEntry window
causing MM to break if you pressed enter in Description field
- Progress window is now log window, storing history of your
session. You can open the log window in any time from the
menu. You can save the log or even print it.
- Added user definable patterns (see prefs and PatternMatch)
- I/O functions use now buffered OS calls, which is expected
to increase the I/O performance.
- MoveFiles shouldn't refuse to move files on the disk any more.
- Switchable file list header (Note: overprinting is caused
by MUI's bug, not mine...)
- Hunt pattern may be automatically expanded by MM with #? at
the begining and the end of the pattern to make hunting easier
(of course you may switch this off)
- Added "List only" feature for Hunt causing all matching files
to be logged.
- MM takes usage of AppWindow, so you can drop any WB icon on
the file list to easily change the work directory
- Preferences files are moved to "Config" subdirectory
- SleepIcon added (change "Config/MaxManagerSleep.info"
if you don't like mine.
- User lists attached to the "Uploader" etc. strings
- Added menu "Settings" and its contents (MM prefs call
and MUI prefs call)
- MM checks now if total #of files in filebase is correct
(doesn't check the count of separate sections, yet)
- BubbleHelps available
(28.01.96)
- EditSection/Apply now works
- If there're deleted files in the base, the Statistics will show you
the amount of bytes taking by those files
- Patterns are now saved in the config file...
- Hunt - GoInLeft, GoInRight buttons allowing you to select the listview
you want to use for future operation of found file.
- Sections are now sorted by name. Unfortunately you can't switch back
to old sorting (by sections' number) for now, but I'll fix this soon.
- Prefs: Saving Sections-2-Drawers-Attachmens will fix changes made to this
part of configuration. There's no undo! Clicking "Cancel" will cancel
all changes except those made in the Sections-2-Drawers part.
- Optimizer: RemoveWithDownCount and RemoveOldFiles optimizers added
- Rename added
- Import: Add-And-Move added.
- Fixed bug causing MM not to find files being located in default file path
- Local Optimizer added. Enter section and click "Optimize" to mess in one
section only.
- SIDE EFFECT: Reenter the section with deleted files to get them grouped
together.
