- Minute 10 Module Docs -- A Module By : Scott Szretter
-
- Minute 10 is a maintenence module for MUBBS, which is called automatically
- by MUBBS every 10 minutes.
-
- The purpose of Minute 10 is to call other modules.
-
- Modules can be called every 10 minutes every day,
- or every 10 minutes on a particular day,
- or a particular time every day,
- or a particular time on a specific day,
- or once in a particular hour every day,
- or once in a particular hour on specific day.
-
- The file minute10.info must be in the bbssupport folder.
- This file uses the following format:
-
- module4 <- Line 1: The name of the module to be called!
- 11 <- Line 2: The hour to call the module!
- 23 <- Line 3: The minute to call the module! (between 11:18 and 11:28)
- 99/99 <- Line 4: The date to call the module! (Everyday)
-
- Please be sure the file minute10.info is in the bbssupport folder, even if it is empty!!!
- (no modules to be called)
-
- The module name is the name of the module in the modules resource file.
- The hour is in 24 hour format!
- The minute is from 00 - 59. +/- 5.
- (Since minute 10 is only called every 10 minutes, a module may be called 5 minutes earlier
- than the specified time or 5 minutes later.)
-
-
- To call a module every 10 minutes every day:
- --> Set hour and minute to 99, and date to 99/99.
-
- To call a module every 10 minutes on a particular day:
- --> Set hour and minute to 99, and date to the date you want... (month/day)
-
- To call a module at a particular time every day:
- --> set hour to the hour you want (24hr fmt), and the minute to the minute you
- want (00-59), and the date to 99/99.
-
- To call a module at a particular time on a particular day:
- --> set hour to the hour you want (24hr fmt), and the minute to the minute you
- want (00-59), and the date to the date you want (month/day).
-
- To call a module within a particular hour (once) every day:
- --> set hour to the hour you want (24hr fmt), minute to 99, and the date to
- 99/99.
-
- To call a module within a particular hour (once) on a particular day:
- --> set hour to the hour you want (24hr fmt), minute to 99, and the date to
- the date you want (month/day).
-
-
- To install the actual module, just copy it into the modules resource file like any
- other module.
- Note: be sure it replaces the minute10 module that already exists!
- I have compiled it with the same id, so there should be no problem, but be sure!
