This suite of programs are specifically aimed at Sysops of Ami-Express or /X Compatibles.. Compatible with OS2.x+ ___________________________________________________________________ __ _ _ _ Release Information ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ These programs will hopefully allow sysops running an Ami-Express BBS system (or compatibles like the cool S-Express) to have much more CONTROL over using the system from their local side of things. Basically these tools are CLI/ Arexx equivalents of the GUI Ami-Express SERVER COMMANDS. This means for instance you could write a CLI script and assign it to a key. Then on the touch of a key you can execute ANY of the commands you could do by using the Ami-Express Server. For instance say the sysop has a local node thats personal to himself he could write a few cli script lauching the provided tools (in this case SV_SYSOPLOGIN) that would automatically locally log him in node 0! Another example is shutting down any node you wish from a CLI or Arexx script.. this improves the functionality and usefulness of any CLI or Arexx script.. Get writing some simple scripts now!!! (should only take a few lines to write some really neat Door utilities with them!) CLI Equivalent Commands exist for all the standard AMIX Node Server commands eg; SV_Accounts, SV_Uniconify, SV_Iconify, etc. Take a look and experiment with these very useful little commands. NB: Please note; ALL these commands can only be used *ONCE* Ami-Express is running and the server is active. The Server can startup in Iconified mode if desired. This does not effect the functioning of these commands. Also note then that the "SV_STARTNODE" can only activate a node if the Ami-Express server is already active! Why is each command seperate? Well the reasoning behind this is that some are pretty sensitive.. ie; SV_AEShell so you may wish to leave these offline.. Thats it.. I`m in a rush.. I`ll explain better with some example script in a future update.. For now thats it... Btw-) For any coders interested The *FULL* source-code to the entire suite of tools will be available on the EX4-Coders-disk Issue #2.. Don`t miss out.. it will also contain the *FULL* source-code to Pro-Runner 2.3 too!!!! TUNE IN OR MISS OUT! Copyright İ 1994 2-Cool/EX4! All Rights Reserved.
