The variable names are 100% configurable, and a line number or username may be specified to generate the user information. This utility may be used to initialize CLI doors with a user's personal preferences, or scripts that process user information. @endnode @node "Features" "Features" Features ~~~~~~~~ - 100% configurable variable names - ability to specify a 'new' space character - easy access to user information - ability to specify a line number or username for data retrieval @endnode @node "Installation" "Installation" Installation ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Simply copy InfoID to your MEBBSNet:c/ directory or where desired. Example: 1> Copy InfoID MEBBSNet:c NOTE: This utility will requires a minimum of AmigaOS 2.0 @endnode @node "Usage" "Usage" Usage ~~~~~ InfoID is ONLY usable from a shell enviornment. There are MANY options, which are described below. Options: NAME/K,LINE/K/N,USERNAME/K,HANDLE/K,PASSWORD/K,TELEPHONE/K,ADDRESS/K,CITY/K, STATE/K,ZIP/K,BUPLOAD/K,BDOWNLOAD/K,FREEBYTES/K,ACCESSLEVEL/K,TOTALCALLS/K, CALLSTODAY/K,MINSREMAIN/K,COMPTYPE/K,COLUMNS/K,FUPLOAD/K,FDOWNLOAD/K, DOORPOINTS/K,MSGLIMIT/K,NETCREDITS/K,GFXTYPE/K,FRATIO/K,CALLSPERDAY/K, MINSPERDAY/K,MINSPERCALL/K,BRATIO/K,MSGENTERED/K,EDITOR/K,HOTKEYS/K, PROTOCOL/K,CONVSPCS/K,QUIET/S NOTE: Either the NAME/K or LINE/K argument MUST be specified for the command to function. NAME/K ........ Keyword which specifies the UserName or Handle on which the information is to be retrieved. LINE/K ........ Keyword which specifies the Line Number from which the user information is to be retrieved. USERNAME/K .... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the UserName is to be stored. HANDLE/K ...... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Handle is to be stored. PASSWORD/K .... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Password is to be stored. TELEPHONE/K ... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Telephone Number is to be stored. ADDRESS/K ..... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Address is to be stored. CITY/K ........ Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the City is to be stored. STATE/K ....... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the State is to be stored. ZIP/K ......... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Zip Code is to be stored. BUPLOAD/K ..... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Bytes Uploaded is to be stored. BDOWNLOAD/K ... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Bytes Downloaded is to be stored. FREEBYTES/K ... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Free Bytes is to be stored. ACCESSLEVEL/K . Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Access Level is to be stored. TOTALCALLS/K .. Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Calls to the System is to be stored. CALLSTODAY/K .. Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Calls Today is to be stored. MINSREMAIN/K .. Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Minutes Remaining is to be stored. COMPTYPE/K .... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Computer Type is to be stored. COLUMNS/K ..... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Columns is to be stored. FUPLOAD/K ..... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Files Uploaded is to be stored. FDOWNLOAD/K ... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Files Downloaded is to be stored. DOORPOINTS/K .. Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Door Points is to be stored. MSGLIMIT/K .... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Messages Allowed Per Call is to be stored. NETCREDITS/K .. Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Network Credits Remaining is to be stored. GFXTYPE/K ..... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Graphics Type is to be stored. FRATIO/K ...... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the File Ratio is to be stored. CALLSPERDAY/K . Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Calls Per Day is to be stored. MINSPERDAY/K .. Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Minutes Allowed Per Day is to be stored. MINSPERCALL/K . Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Minutes Allowed Per Call is to be stored. BRATIO/K ...... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Byte Ratio is to be stored. MSGENTERED/K .. Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Total Messages Entered is to be stored.

PROTOCOL/K .... Keyword which specifies the Variable Name in which the Protocol Type is to be stored. CONVSPCS/K .... Keyword which specifies a character to substitute in the user information instead of a [SPACE]. QUIET/A ....... Switch which suppresses the copyright information from being displayed. Example: 1> InfoID NAME "Jason Gouger" HANDLE User GFXTYPE GfxMode QUIET This example would retrieve the User Information on 'Jason Gouger' and store the Handle in the 'User' local variable and the Graphics Type in the local variable 'GfxMode'. ***NOTE: The information is retrieved from *DISK*, therefore it will not reflect any changes made in the user information while the user has been OnLine. Which means that the Total Minutes Remaining will indicate the Minutes Remaining when the User Logged On and *NOT* the current number of minutes remaining. @endnode @node "Shell Games" "Example Shell Game Scripts" Example Elysium DosDriver SetUp: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Script To Be Called By MEBBSNet as the DOOR: ******************************************* >>>Start>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>DosDrivers:ShellDoor.SCP>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> .KEY LineNumber InfoID LINE GFXTYPE Gfx HANDLE User QUIET DosDrivers:ShellDoor ; Start 'Normal' Elysium Door File <<>>Start>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>DosDrivers:ShellDoor.SCH>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> FailAt 200 CD DOORS:ShellDoorDir if $Gfx EQ 0 ShellDoorPrg UserName=$User ANSI=MONO Else ShellDoorPrg USERNAME=$User ANSI=COLOR EndIf Lab Begin EndCli Skip Begin BACK <<
