| subject: | BinkleyTerm Who is On |
PK> Hi Jean-Claude, ML> How do I get BinkleyTerm tasks to state their presence and status ML> in the Maximus 'Who_is_On' menu command ? PK> You need to find a utility to tweak the BBSTAT##.BBS file. PK> One way I can think of is that as the .BBS file PK> _appears_ to be in a similar format to a Mecca file, PK> one may be able to use Mecca to generate them. Yeah but mecca doesn't have any tokens to report user location eg. reading/writing messages, downloading files, playing games. I need something more dynamic, hence more cool. Maybe there's a Mex replacement for the Who's Online function. Otherwise I'd have to write one -- one day. Heh. I could swear I remember seeing something like Username Node Status -------------------- ---- ---------------------- Binkleyterm 16 Waiting for caller on somebody's BBS. It may have been one of those OS/2-only pipe features. I want to update the status to Status ----------------------------- Sending mail to 3:712/104 if a *.bsy flag is detected in the BinkleyTerm outbound area or something. That would be cool. --- Maximus/2 3.01* Origin: Top Hat 2 BBS (1:343/41) SEEN-BY: 3/0 633/267 640/954 712/0 313 550 620 848 @PATH: 343/41 138/146 392 123/500 261/38 712/848 633/267 |
