Short: CNet Amiga WHO Replacement Package! Author: dotoran@bluemoon.net (david weeks) Uploader: dotoran@bluemoon.net (david weeks) Version: 2.64 Type: comm/cnet Replace: aminet/comm/cnet/cnet_who.lha Requires: AmigaOS 2/3.x, CNet Amiga, v3.05c/v4.21 Distribution: anywhere, everywhere, please mirror! Modified to work on 3.xx thru 3.99 and v4.21 of CNet Amiga Pro... -- v2.64 -- - Release Date: August 26, 1996! - Ooops! I neglected to notice that the "Idle" timers were goofed up in the 2.63 version, so I had to fix that, in addition to also making the following changes and additions: - The Idle Time display has changed again. It now uses a format of: 2 h 37 m 22 s to show the time in hours, minutes and seconds. An additional toggle was also added to the CONFIG file which will also allow you to list a "days" value, like this: 1d3h 22m 8s The "days" value `hugs' the minutes value, so as not to word wrap the entire display, however colors are used in such a way as to make it more readable than appears above. - Two additional definable color values have been added to Config for the Idle Time Digits and the Idle Time d-h-m-s characters, instead of using colors defined for other things. - I made an addition to the screen displays in the config module, so that you'll know which module you're currently editing. (Look in the upper right corner of any screen to see which one). - I slightly expanded upon the "Fake Idle Minutes" value setting, where you now enter TWO values, a MINIMUM and MAXIMUM value. Now, if a user is online, but HIDDEN from other port(s), when one of those ports happens to use a WHO command, a random value BETWEEN these two designated values will be selected and ADDED to the total number of minutes the user USING the WHO command has been online. This should hopefully make it appear that that port really IS empty(and HAS been for a fair amount of time). - It is now possible to create BBSMENU entries that contain an argument for a WHO module. (Helpful with the LONG module) You can then create additional commands, like this one: WQ, Who Quick `3- | {#0Who/Long Q} The "WQ" command can then be used to view the QUICK "long" Who display, without having to type "who q", etc. - Numerous instances of "transposed" characters which were caused by my faulty motherboard in the past were also located and fixed in the displays used for the LONG who module. You will find three versions of the WHO command, each with it's own list of features: "Short Who" - The "W" Command: ~~~~~~~~~ ~ - Port Number (Scans ALL Loaded Ports. Will only display IDLE ports if you have this enabled through CNet's CONFIG program!) - User's Handle - Where the User IS in your System! - Conference Control Flag (+) Supported 100%. (This means that users on other ports who try to Hide or Muffle a Conf. Controller will appear to do so on THEIR screens, but will FAIL to do so on the Controller's WHO screen, just like CNET!) - Hiding "h", and Muffling "m" fully supported. - Attempted Hiding "H", and Attempted Muffling "M" also supported! (This is what a Conference Controller will see on their WHO screens of user's who are trying to Hide or Muffle them!) - Idle Ports now have the ability to show how LONG they've been Idle, provided you have "Show Idle Ports" set in CONFIG! - Occupied Ports that have been IDLE for LONGER than 5 minutes now tell you this, so that you can get an idea as to whether or not the user on the port is REALLY there or not! - Fully colorized, with two separate HELP menus for beginning users! "Normal Who" - The "WH" Command: ~~~~~~~~~~ ~~ - Contains everything the "Short" format does, PLUS: - Logon Time. - Current CPS Rate (Baud/100). - City, State, and Country User Hails From. - User's Short, Internal CNet WHO Banner! - Idle Ports can now use an optional IDLE Banner, a line of up to 54 characters that could possibly tell such info as phone numbers, baud rates, times, etc. If an Idle Banner is NOT created, the user will be shown the regular " 0 Idle" line instead, unless a DEFAULT Idle Banner has also been created. "Long Who" - The "WHO" Command: ~~~~~~~~ ~~~ - Contains all "Short" and "Normal" information, PLUS: - Last Call Date. - Gender of User (Male or Female)[Color Coded Blue or Red] - Time Used Online TODAY (in Minutes) - The User's 3-Line "Glimpse" file. - A History Flag "*" Telling which Users Have History Files, which are text files of up to 20-Lines! -- Written by Dotoran of Frontiers -- ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 2160 991 54.1% 26-Aug-96 11:28:26 !READ_ME_NOW! 369 76 79.4% 19-Jun-96 09:05:00 +_Banners 229 161 29.6% 23-Aug-96 19:43:26 +_Glimpse 256 180 29.6% 19-Jun-96 09:05:00 +_History 28335 8319 70.6% 26-Aug-96 11:20:06 +Config 657 187 71.5% 26-Aug-96 11:09:20 +Config.Data 384 183 52.3% 26-Aug-96 11:10:16 +IdlePorts 940 395 57.9% 26-Aug-96 08:10:08 +Loader 14185 5102 64.0% 28-Aug-96 08:34:24 +Long 17091 5149 69.8% 26-Aug-96 11:21:50 +MakeWho 5309 2368 55.3% 26-Aug-96 11:09:24 +Normal 4553 2114 53.5% 26-Aug-96 11:09:22 +Short 2042 923 54.7% 26-Aug-96 13:02:36 +Upgrade246 23458 9279 60.4% 26-Aug-96 11:52:44 +WHO_HISTORY! 34795 13100 62.3% 26-Aug-96 12:45:06 +WHO_README! -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 134763 48527 63.9% 03-Oct-96 01:51:04 15 files
