LiQUiD Version 1.19 Revision C

There have been lots of changes in this Revision of LiQUiD.
Anyway, a few of the changes made this time are Internal Comm Routines, no
more need for X00 or BNU, 16.8k Support, LiQUiD requires 110k Less
conventional memory then before, about 40 Configurable color strings added,
the jump conference procedure now lists both file and message conferences,
new registration screen ('.' from main menu), speed increases, when you
check for access at the matrix, it only asks you for your name once, then
logs you in, new message headers, up to 999 prelogon screens and logoff
screens that randomize, it now lists your user note at the login procedure,
and tons more shit I can't even think of.
So far I've set a record, I've been programming on LiQUiD about 5-8 hours
a day for about 15 days straight (clap clap).
Many thanks to those who helped make this months release a bang, and
especially to the iCE artists, and of course Crimson Blade.
FIDO net support will be the next big thing added to LiQUiD, so hang in there
if you are waiting for it.
If you are interested in registering LiQUiD, then be sure to grab the file
LIQUID.APP from file conference 1, fill it out, and send it back to me.
Chat me if you have any questions.
If you know anyone who is putting a board up or wishes to switch softwares,
please mention LiQUiD to them.
Oh, for those who wish to know, my Birth-Day is this Saturday (Happy B-Day to
me).
Take care, and thanks for the support, I appreciate you all. Any comments or
bugs, leave feedback.

_____________________________________________________________________________

Ok, a few notes to read :

1) Your config will be somewhat messed up around the area where it
asks your message and file conference names. This is ok, just enter the
right information, then type F10 to save your changes, then load it up
again, do this till it works. Be sure to backup your config.BBS just
in case things get fucked.

2) Let's make LiQUiD Rock, recommend it to a friend!! We need more
boards to improve PlazmA Net. Also, if you WANT an account on PlazmANet,
be sure to let me know.

3) In the config it says "Box Header Color #1, etc etc", those are all
for the header that surrounds your recent callers, user listings,
news, email, etc. The magenta/high magenta/white header on my board.
It's all configurable. So change it to something you like.

4) To configure all of the configurable strings added, you can use
color and anything yuo want. To use color, obviously just type like
|15 for to make the color high white, then your string "|15Enter name|08:",
for example. You should be able to figure it out, it's the same
thing you do for your origin line.

That's all I wish to BS about, see you next release.

-Sought After

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

LiQUiD Version 1.19 Revision D :

In this revision a few more configurable strings were added,
code was optimized, a few new ansis were added, origin line length
extended to 80 characters per line, external config made so it's
bearable to look at, netting in all conferences is now supported
(Go to the node editor and tell it what conference you are netting
from for PlazmA Net), a net-mail delay setting in the config(If
the HUB to PlazmA Net is running a front-end mailer, you will
need to set that delay to 15-18 seconds, if the hub is NOT
running a Front-End Mailer, the delay should be set to 4 seconds!),
and of course the long-awaited FIDO Net Support!

Why so few changes this month, compared to last month? I was tired
and needed a rest, so be happy you got a big and much-needed feature
added as well as a few good, but small ones.

What will happen for 1.19 Revision E? Most likly Multi-Node support.
This is a very popular and needed feature, it demands my attention.

Ok a few things to note : Before you change to 1.19 D, BACKUP YOUR
LIQUID DIR AND ALL SUB-DIRS! Then, run the file MSGCONV.EXE. It will
convert your message structures to those of your new copies of LiQUiD,
add FIDO Variables, and add the 80 char's per line on your origin lines.

Next, run NODECONV.EXE, it will convert your nodelist.bbs to support
your net in any conference (This pertains to PlazmA Net's location
ONLY, NOT FIDO, etc etc)

Once that is done, you need to call me, and get a new reg file for
LiQUiD. I have changed the reg routines, and EVERYONE must get a new
registration file from me before LiQUiD will work right again. So,
call Crewel Lye and chat me or email me, the quicker the better, for
you and me.

After that, you need to run the new config.exe, and answer the new
questions in there. Also EVERYONE - Work on your origin lines!
I added space for 80 chars both lines, USE IT. Make it look good.

If you don't do the above mentioned directions, life will be hard, so
let's follow directions, and get things done quickly and efficiently.

I need the net to be more active also, sysops. Let's do what
we can to enhance the activity in the net, ok?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Info on FIDO Support:

The way FIDO works on LiQUiD is you have a tosser called FIDOTOSS.EXE.
FIDOTOSS.EXE IMPORTS, EXPORTS, and PURGES messages. Export is used to
toss messages from LiQUiD struture to FIDO stucture. Import tosses
from FIDO to LiQUiD, and Purge deletes the converted messages.
Once you export with FIDOTOSS.EXE, you should use a tossing program
like TOSSCAN.EXE to convert to FrontDoor structures, then use FrontDoor
or another Front-End mailer to do your net.

If you're interested in being in a FIDO net, you should know what
to do. If not, learn elsewhere, I write the compatibility, not
manuals. I will not be giving any support as to setting up FIDO,
I will take any bug reports gladly however, or any suggestions.
Let me know.

Keep in mind that this _IS_ a beta for FIDO-Net. It may work, and
it may not. I am pretty damned sure it will work, but I am also
sure some bugs will be encountered.

Ok, Inside your message sponsor, this is an example of how you should
set it up for FIDO :

1) Area Name :(FIDO NET Area Name)
2) Echo Mail Conference :(IF a FIDO area, this MUST BE SET to 222)
3) Area Flag Number :(Irrelevent to the FIDO Net)
4) Access Level :(Irrelevent to the FIDO Net)
5) Access Name/Number :(Irrelevent to the FIDO Net)
6) Maximum messages :(Irrelevent to the FIDO Net)
7) Sponsor :(Irrelevent to the FIDO Net)
8) Fido Address :(Enter your FIDO Address here. Ex: 69:1713/10 for CCi)
9) Fido Directory :(You MUST put a seperate directory for EACH FIDO Message
Base. You must make this dir yourself. Ex: C:\LiQUiD\BOARDS\1 for area 1,
C:\LiQUiD\BOARDS\2 for area 2, etc. You MUST make these dirs in order for
the net to work.)
10) Fido Origin :(Enter your FIDO Origin Line here. This will NOT show
up if you didn't say your echo ID was 222, MAKE SURE YOU DID IF THIS IS A FIDO AREA!)
11) Net Name :(Name of your net. If FIDO or not, specify anyway.
Ex: PlazmA Net, CCi, Felony, Etc)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

LiQUiD Version 1.19 Revision E :

In this revision external menus can now be used without problems,
International phone code support added, Message Status Screen added,
External/Configurable ansi headers now optional in several places
(Rumors, User Listing, Recent Callers), System 1 Password external ansi
optional, User Login Procedure external ansi now configurable, 'Your Status'
ansi now externally configurable (Y from Main Menu), Yes/No prompt bugs fixed
(Used to display incorrectly), the string when you connect to LiQUiD for
scanning fx ability is configurable, and a few small things that I have
failed to remember.

I took a break mostly this month and relaxed. May will hopefully
have many new additions to the software. I was planning on adding
multi-node with Revision E, but the routines I was going to use are
inefficient and not too compatible with DesqView, so I would rather wait
until I find something that will work all around.

Ok IMPORTANT NOTICE: Before running your new update, you MUST run the file
USERCONV.EXE *ONE* Time ONLY. This will convert your user files to reflect
the changes made in the user records. If you don't do this, your user
file is incompatible with the new version.

Thanks to Necromancer of iCE Advertisements, we have a new set of external
menus. They are included in this release, filename is NECROLQ.ZIP.
I have been in communication with several of the most talented artists
around, and we shall have new LiQUiD Custom status screens, menus, etc
next month. Also many thanks to Amroth of NEMESIS, we have a very nice
LiQUID Logo, also included in this release, filename : AM-LIQ.ANS

Just copy all files in this archive to your main LiQUID directory, run
USERCONV.EXE, and you are in business.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

LiQUiD Version 1.19 Revision F :

In this revision :
The Connect Status and 'Locking Com Port at' were both made optional in
the config; they can be disabled or enabled.
The 'Deleting Last Five Messages..." is now configurable.
The Message Newscan Prompt & Message NewScan Header is now configurable.
(See MCI Code for this Below under Message NewScan Prompt MCI Codes)
The File NewScan Prompt _And_ File Listing Prompt are both now configurable.
(See MCI Codes for this below under File NewScan Prompt MCI Codes)
You can now have a configurable external Sub-Board Header for the
message base. (See usage for SUBBRD.ANS Below)
The File Area Listing prompt ("A" from File Menu) and Message Area Listing
prompt ("A" from Message Menu) are both now configurable.
I added User Date of Birth (DOB) and Address to the user records.
The "PlazmA Net" string is now configurable.
Feedback can now be sent to all sysops, or specific sysop; if specific
sysop is chosen, it stores it in email, if regular, stores it in feedback.
I removed the internal status screens (Main Status & File Status).
They used up a lot of room in the code, and were ugly as hell. Removing
this gave me 48k more free space in my code. External is much better and
more efficient.

When it comes to the configurable strings, you have two ways you can
do things. You can use colors defined in the user records (Ex |IC for
input color or |SC for status color), or you can use the constant colors
(Ex |01-|15). If you use the user defined colors, all the configurable
strings will be defined by your user's colors. If you use the constant
colors, then all your strings have a large chance of not blending in at all
with your user's colors. I myself have only about 15 users out of 380 who
have changed their colors, therefore nothing looks out of place,
so I use the constant colors. Up to you on how you do this, but I thought
I'd let you know on this. Also Note: For those who are not new sysops,
but rather are getting an update, it won't fill the space in with the
default string (in the config.exe). You must either know what it does,
or else I recommend you copy the new config.exe and config.dat to a
different directory, and run it and see what the new options are,
then run the config in your LiQUiD dir and fill it in how you want it
to look. It is important you get the strings with the correct
input, you don't want it to say "Sorry, no files" when it's newscanning ;)

Worked on the FIDOTOSS.EXE some more. The current version is 1.3 Beta.
It will be included in this revision. Go ahead and get rid of the old
versions. In this one the PURGE feature was fixed, and it might be
ready to work pretty much flawless. I have been told that with a
certain tosser it will not included Carriage Return + Line Feed,
it just does LF, so things are quite fucked. I am not sure which tosser
does this, Gecko, TossScan, no idea. But if anyone has a prob like
this, then you'll know to switch to another tosser.
I'll be joining CCi pretty soon, hope to see you all do the same.
Get in touch with Midnight Sorrow on Infinite Darkess to gain an account
on the net, more importantly, NET PLAZMA NET DAILY!
- Infinite Darkness (CCi HUB/WHQ) : 305/766-6065

Because of the new additions to the user records, you must run
the user converter, USERCONV.EXE *ONE* time and ONCE Only.
This will update your user records and make them compatible with this
month's release.

DieHard of ACiD Productions is now involved with LiQUiD as an artist.
I hope to see many good works from him to help keep LiQUiD looking great.
As his work is done, I will make it available by adding it in the monthly
updates or by putting it on The Lye.

PlazmA Net is doing pretty good, but not all of my sysops are in the net.
Why? Netting problems? Never bothered to set it up, or what?
Each call costs right at .11 cents to net. It's not too expensive.
The net is the best we to keep all of you sysops together, and it enables
extremely fast responses to your questions and problems, and more so,
it helps your board's message activity increase and keeps you in touch
with people all over the world. If you're not in the net, I highly
recommend you get in touch with me, Sought After, and get a net account
set up, you'll love it. For those who currently net, make sure you
net daily!

I have added a new echo to PlazmA Net. It is for playing RPG's, discussing
them, etc. There was a large request for this among a lot of people, so
I added it.
It is to be called : RPG Adventures
Echo ID#: 23
To add this base you must go to the message base and add it in, giving
it the echo 23, and then you must go to your sysop menu, B for node editor,
and E to edit node. Edit node 1, then type S for networked Bases, then
enter 23, it should say "Base 23 is now networked". If you don't add
it to your node then it won't be netted. All SysOps in the net must add
this to their message bases/node list. You'll find that it will be quite
an active base.

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

I have included a file by the name of LEGAL.TXT. As of Revision E
(1 month ago) I told each and all of you that it was to be signed
and mailed to me. I also told you that you had 10 days to comply.
Not all sysops complied. Those sysops who do not send me the signed
file by 6/10/93 will be removed as registered LiQUiD SysOps.

It is simply my policies for LiQUiD, and *ALL* SysOps *WILL* sign it and
send it in. You all have till 6/10/93 to comply.
The Following people will lose their registration if they don't comply:
Storm Lord, Cyric, Criminal Justice, Mercury, FireWalker, The Gibbet,
Kid Capri, Mr Bic, Avatar, SounD WavE, and The Warrior.

The others have complied, and so will you. All you do is load a text
editor, put your name where it says YOUR NAME, sign it and date it,
and mail it to me. No big deal huh? All it costs you is .29 cents.
It obligates you in no way to do anything. You are simply acknowledging
that you understand my software, LiQUiD is copyrighted, and that you
cannot release it to anyone, nor copy it except for backup purposes,
and that you understand I will sue you for the full extent of my
civil and criminal damages if you violate my rights as the copyright owner.

I will ONLY accept printouts, no uploads of this file are accepted. Mail to:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

LiQUiD Version 1.19 Revision G :

New EMS/XMS/DISK Swapping routines were added to the software, and
they are incredibly fast and efficient. If you have EMS or XMS, be *SURE*
to go to the config and set Maximize Dos Shell to YES. Now when netting,
etc, memory hogs like pkzip/unzip 2.04g, arj, etc won't cause any problems.
Made the 'R' Command from Message menu now configurable (The reading
messages prompt)
Added the option to display an ansi when a user doesn't enter any input
and the system times out and hangs up. (TIMEOUT.ANS)
Made the BBS Listings 100% configrable now on display;
See Configurable BBS Listings below for more info on this.
ARJ and LZH/LHA Support was fully implemented throughout the file
section. Now you can view arj/lzh archives, type the files single and
download them from the archive.
File bug fixed - You used to be able to use the X command (Archive commands)
and download private files, etc. Now it checks to see if the file
is for you or not.
In the bbs listings, anyone used to be able to delete a bbs entry
reguardless if they were the one who made it. Now only the maker and
the sysop can delete it. - Also, Only the person who made a bbs listing
could edit it, now the sysop can too. (For obvious reasons)
In the feedback menu; when you used to read feedback, it would display
to, from, and date in text. Now it uses your current message header for
display. Looks a lot better.
I did the same thing to the email section as the feedback. Now user
message headers are displayed.
Configurable News Headers were added. To see usage, refer to Config News
Headers below. - Note: The Internal News Headers are no longer used.
You will need to either make your own configurable news header,
or use the one I have included in this update. (NEWSHDR.ANS)
The Doors support in LiQUiD is much more reliable and efficient.
I made it swap to EMS and run the batchfile instead of halting on an
errorlevel. If you don't have EMS or XMS don't use doors ;) If you
have a problem get in touch with me. I have tested the additions and
the doors are working excellently for me.
In the doors menu, I added configurable header listings there as well
(Just like in the bbs listing). See Configurable Doors Headers below.

That is what I did this release. I have two weeks of free time on my hands
right now, and will be able to do a lot on the software. I am not sure
if it will be multinode or QWK OFfline Mail Reader Support, or NUV.
We will see. I will be steadily working on adding more configurabillity
as I have been.

When unzipping the update, just overwrite all the files in your main
liquid dir that it unzips, and copy the file NEWSHDR.ANS to
\LIQUID\TEXTFILE or else make your own newheader. That's all for
this release, see you guys next month.

--
SYSPW.ANS Usage:

Make a file in TheDraw ansieditor that you wish to use as your configrable
system 1 password ansi-prompt. Once it's made, enter animation mode, and scan
it with your preferred animation option, then add the MCI Code where
you wish it to wait for system password entry. The MCI Code for this is:
%@@
If you don't use %@@ it will not wait for their input and your ansi
is worthless.
Once you have placed the %@@ in the place you wish it to wait for input of
the system password, then save the ansi in 78 coloumns, and copy it to your
LiQUiD\TEXTFILE dir.

--
LOGIN.ANS Usage:

Make a file in TheDraw ansieditor that you wish to use as your configrable
Login Procedure. Once it's made, enter animation mode, and scan
it with your preferred animation option, then add the MCI Codes where
you want them. The MCI Codes are as follow:

%U : Waits for user's name
%B : Write's user's connected baudrate
%T : Write's the current time
%N : Write's user's user note
%P : Waits for user's password
%@X : Defines color you wish output to be (X = Color #, ex: %@15 would be
white, %@1 would be dark blue)

If you wish to use anything other then %U and %P, you must put %U first
ALWAYS, then put the codes you wish to use, THEN at the end put the %P.
If you put %P first, it tries to check for the user's password before
it knows who it is, obviously it won't work. So, ask for the user's
alias first, then whatever other shit you wish to use, then at last ask
for the password (%P). At the very top of your ansi you should define the
color you wish the output to be with the %@ function.
Note: If you do not have the files in your LiQUiD\TEXTFILE directory,
then LiQUiD will always use the internal ansis. This applies for all
external configurable files.
Also, I will not be supplying any configurable external files. The ones
I use on my board are for me. If you wish to look at mine while online
for ideas, go for it, but have your own made. The whole idea for these
configurable options is to make each of our boards look different.

--
YOURSTAT.ANS Usage:

Make a file in TheDraw ansieditor that you wish to use as your configrable
User-Status Ansi-Screen (Y From Main Menu). Once it's made, enter animation
mode, and scan it with your preferred animation option, then add the MCI
Codes where you want them. This procedure uses the global MCI codes
that are used in your Main stat, message stat and file stat screens.
For your convienence a list of those global MCI Codes can be found
below.

Once you have placed the MCI codes which you wish to use in the ansi,
then save the ansi in 78 coloumns, and copy it to your LiQUiD\TEXTFILE dir.

--
SUBBRD.ANS Usage:

Make a file in TheDraw ansieditor that you wish to use as your configrable
Sub Board Ansi-Screen. Once it's made, enter animation mode, and scan it
with your preferred animation option, then add the MCI Codes where you want
them. Make sure the ansi is not more then about 7 lines deep. It really
doesn't need to be more then 5-6, it's only going to display a small bit
of info, and it's displayed every time you change message bases; a long
ansi for that would be very annoying.

MCI Codes for SUBBRD.ANS are:

%C : Current Board Name
%S : Current Board Sponsor
%N : Total # Messages
%L : Last Read Message
%T : Total Posts by You
%D : Date Now
%@1 - %@15 Are Valid Colors for Text OutPut

Once you have placed the MCI codes which you wish to use in the ansi,
then save the ansi in 78 coloumns, and copy it to your LiQUiD\TEXTFILE dir.

--
MCI Codes for the Message NewScan Prompt & NewScan Header in the CONFIG.EXE :

In your message newscan prompt I recommend you list it something like
"NewScan - |CB - |CM/|NM - [?/Help]" Or something to that effect. Just
so the user knows how many messages, what area he's in, etc. For the
NewScan Header I recommend you do something like "Scanning - |CB ".
You don't need too much info for the newscan header.
If you don't use a lot of color variations in the message newscan prompt,
you could even tell him how much time is left if you like.

--
MCI Codes for the File NewScan Prompt & FileList Prompt in the CONFIG.EXE :

In your file newscan prompt I recommend you list it something like
"NewScan - |AN - |TN - [?/Help]" Or something to that effect. Just
so the user knows what area he's in, etc. Be creative, it's all configurable!
For the File Listing, do pretty much the same thing, unless you want it to
be totally different.

--
Configurable BBS Listings :

Use file BBSLIST.TOP for the top of the listing. (The one that uses
the header, tells you it's a bbs listing, and then does the top line)
BBSLIST.NFO is the file it uses to Tell what color you want to display
the bbs list in for each of the 4 items (BoardName, Phone, Baud and Software)
BBSLIST.BOT is the bottom line once done listing.
To make the BBSLIST.TOP go into TheDraw, and make a file you wish to
use. Make the top look however you like, that's why I made it configurable.
Save it on 78 coloumns, and no clear screens, just regular.
Then go to TheDraw, and make the BBSLIST.NFO. Valid MCI Codes are:
%N : Board Name
%P : Board Phone #
%B : Board Baud Rate
%W : Board Software
Animation mode is not needed for this. Just select the color you want
it to display each MCI Code in, then save it as 78 columns and no
clear screen. You will need to load the ansi up into a text
editor after that and remove the extra lines to make it display
right. Play around like that till you get it to work. If you don't want
to do that, use the program FIXLINES.EXE, it does it automatically.
For BBSLIST.BOT just do the same as for BBSLIST.TOP and you should
be all fixed up. Your bbs listings will now look however you make
them look.

Note: If any of these files are not in your \LIQUID\TEXTFILE dir,
then LiQUiD will automatically default to the internal listings.
If you have BBSLIST.TOP and BBSLIST.BOT and not BBSLIST.NFO it will
use the internal default for just the listing. Get it? Ok.

--
Usage for DOORLIST.TOP & DOORLIST.BOT - Configurable Doors Listing Header

Since there are no MCI Codes used in these headers, you just draw
a header you like, give it the appropriate information, save it
as a regular ansi with 78 columns of max display, and there you go.
You don't need any animation mode for it.

--
Usage for NEWSHDR.ANS - Configurable News Headers

Follow the same instructions that you had to make your configurable
LOGIN.ANS, SUBBRD.ANS, SYSPW.ANS, etc.
The MCI Codes are:

%# : Displays The News Item # (Item #1, Item #2, etc)
%D : Displays the Date the News was Left
%W : Displays the Time the News was Left
%L : Displays the Lowest Level Allowed to View the News
%M : Displays the Maximum Level Allowed to View the News
%F : Displays the Author of the News Item
%T : Displays the Title of the News Item

The typical layout would be in this example:

Item: %#
Left On: %D at %T
Levels: %L to %M
Left by: %F
Title: %T

Basic's for new sysop's setting up:

Unzip LiQUiD to the directory you wish to run LiQUiD from, and then
run CONFIG.EXE and setup your board. There are a LOT of configurable
strings, so take your time on making those look good. The more time you
spend, the better your board looks.
Once done with your config, set your DSZLOG to match that
path specified in your config, and then run the board.
To setup the net, refer to the section in this file on PlazmA Net Bases,
it has a list of all the PlazmA Net areas, set them up with the specified
echo ID's, and names. Then go to your sysop menu, type B for node editor,
then A to add a node.
Node PW: Make one unique, and tell me what it is.
Node Name: Crewel Lye
Node Phone #: 17134320779
Node Baud Rate: 38400
Net ID #: Get from Sought After
Net Bases to be netted:
1-23 and 255, just hit 1, then enter, 2 then enter, up to 23, then 255.
In your config your net password should be PlaZ and your nnet name should
be PlazmA Net. Etc etc.

Note: Do NOT change the version of files of DSZ.COM, PKZIP.EXE or PKUNZIP.EXE,
it will cause problems in your net and transfers. When ever we upgrade,
I will issue the newer versions to you. So save yourself and your board
trouble, don't mess with those files.

Any questions, comments, gripes, whines, moo's, moans, etc, contact
Sought After, on Crewel Lye.

Thanks,

-Sought After
