             JTFOX 3.60                                 Introduction
          



          Welcome to JTFOX 3.60.

          First off, I would like to thank you for trying JTFOX 3.60 as the
          directory colourizer for your BBS, and hope that you find it     
          worthwhile registering.  JTFOX 3.60 is approximately 3 years of   
          work, (including the beta code for v:1.0-2.6 and 3.0 which was
          reused, in part, in this version).

          With all the changes that have occurred with JTFOX, the goal
          remains the same, which is to provide the SysOp with an efficient
          method of sprucing up his directory files and creating a list of
          all the files on the BBS.  All this of course with a minimum of
          time and effort by the part of the system operator.  


          Beta Testers.

          I would like to thank the following boards for helping me beta    
          test the earlier versions of JTFOX.

             JTFOX 3.60                   Hardware/Software Requirements
          


          JTFOX 3.60 functions under the same requirements that PCBoard   
          14.5 does. These include the following:

           MS-DOS compatible computer.  100% compatible preferred.
           At least 100k of free RAM
           A hard disk is recommended.
           PCBoard 14.5a by Clark Development Corporation.


          This manual assumes that you have minimal working knowledge of
          DOS and personal computers as such.  Knowing a few things about
          PCBoard 14.5 is also quite helpful but not of utmost importance. 
          If you feel lost, check your DOS manual or give me a call at the
          indicated numbers.

             JTFOX 3.60                                    Installation
          

          JTFOX 3.xx, unlike it's predecessors, is very easy to set up, but 
          must be done properly, if it is to work properly. On the 
          distribution disk, you should have the following files.

             JTFOX360.EXE
             SETUP360.EXE
             README.1ST
             JTFOX360.TXT
             HISTORY.DOC
             CONVERT.EXE

          If any of these files are missing, you may pick them up on my     
          BBS, indicated at the end of the manual.

          In our examples of installation, we will be using C:\PCB\JTFOX30  
          as the location of all JTFOX 3.60 files.

          1)   Create the required subdirectory.  If you wish you may put
               JTFOX 3.60 in the same directory as PCBoard, but you will
               find that things will get crowded quite quickly.

          2)   Unzip the files contained in JTFOX360.ZIP in the desired
               subdirectory.



          This is basically the brunt of the work involved in setting up
          JTFOX.  The remainder of the task will be handled by the setup
          program.



          NOTE:  If you have been using JTFOX 3.xx, you can just `drop-in'
          the new version in the JTFOX directory and bypass all further
          installation steps.  You must however remember to run CONVERT on
          your configuration files, or SETUP360 will simply ignore your old
          configuration.  

          Example:

          CONVERT /JTFOX.CNF

          This will rename your old configuration file to JTFOX.BAK and
          will build your new file using your old parameters.  You may do
          this for each and every configuration file that you have.

           Running SETUP360

               Starting with version 3.60, the CNAMES file no longer needs
               to be converted into a JTFOX format.  Both SETUP and JTFOX
               will read the CNAMES.@@@ file directly.  There are however
               two parameters that can be passed to the setup program upon
               execution.  They are /CONF:xxx and /MONO.  The first one
               will allow you to edit more than one configuration file
               (this works only for the registered version) and the second
               parameter can be used by owners of Monochrome cards.  

          examples:

          SETUP360 /CONF:1               <--Create JTFOX1.CNF
          SETUP360 /MONO                 <--Runs in Monochrome
          SETUP360                       <--Default Conference

           Exiting Setup.

               To exit the setup program, press ESC from the main menu
               screen.  A window will open, asking you whether you wish to
               save the configuration.  There are three choices:

            Y- Yes.  Save this configuration.  JTFOX will check the
               directories indicated in your Paths & Filenames, and will
               create any missing directories.  It will report any problems
               it had (if any) in creating these directories.  JTFOX cannot
               at this point create multi-level directories.  That is to
               say, it cannot create the directory C:\PCB\JTFOX\DATA if the
               directory JTFOX or PCB do not exist.

            N- No.  Do not save this configuration.  JTFOX will exit
               without checking any of the information, or saving the
               configuration. 

            O- Oops.  You might have pressed ESC accidentally, and this is
               the option that will allow you to continue your
               configuration of JTFOX.

           Path & Name of Caller File:

               As a rule, JTFOX will try to log all it's activities in the
               Caller log.  This makes it easier to spot any anomalies, as
               you can view the log online.  If you do not wish to have
               JTFOX write to the caller log, just enter the file you wish
               to have JTFOX write to.  

           Path of CNAMES File:

               Unlike it's predecessors version 3.60 of JTFOX reads the
               CNAMES file directly, thus removing the need to have extra
               files on the drive.  Enter only the path of your CNAMES
               file.

           Path to JTFOX Data Files:

               JTFOX uses this path to store information, such as the
               directory information for the files on the CD-ROM and other
               little things like that.  A directory under the root
               directory of JTFOX should do fine.

          
                                                                 Page 4.3

           Path to JTFOX Header Files:

               This is where JTFOX now stores all it's Headers.  This
               includes conference specific headers as well as the General
               headers.  Again, a subdirectory under the JTFOX directory
               will do quite nicely.

           Path & Name of JTFOX Bulletin.

               This field must be defined if the option to create a
               bulletin report is set to yes, otherwise it can be ignored. 
               The name as well as the path must be defined.

           Flags:

               The flags screen is basically a YES/NO option screen.  Most
               of the flags are identical to the previous versions of JTFOX
               but there is one modification, specifically to the ALLFILES
               option.

           Create a Bulletin:

               Using this option, JTFOX will create a bulletin, similar to
               your DIR file, but will include the file statistics of all
               the conferences.  This allows your users to see all your
               conference statistics easily and efficiently.  In the event
               where you have private conferences, you might want to turn
               this option off.

           Create a DIR(G) listing:

               If this option is set to yes, JTFOX will go and alter your
               DIR files (the text file seen by your users).  JTFOX will
               create only one file, with the appropriate codes in it.
               WARNING:
                 IF YOU'RE NOT SURE WHICH FILE THIS DEALS WITH OR IF YOU'RE
               NOT SURE THAT YOU WANT TO MODIFY IT, LEAVE THIS OPTION TO
               `NO'.






           
                                                                 Page 4.4

           Insert General Title:

               JTFOX has the capability of adding general or individual
               titles on the DIRx files.  Setting this option to yes, will
               insert the file entitled `TITLE' on top of all the DIRx
               files that it processes.  This file can be a straight ASCII
               file or can have PCB 14.5 colour codes, and no there is no
               limit to it's length.  However, if you make it longer than
               24 lines, you are bound to bore your users.

                Individual Titles:

               Individual titles can be added to DIRx files regardless of
               the above setting.  The naming convention for these files is
               a numerical code which works like this. 

                 X.X  
                  
                   Number of directory we want the title for.
                  Conference that directory is located in.

               These files, like the TITLE files are straight ASCII files
               with the inclusion of PCB 14.5 colour codes.  Any line
               editor will do.  No option has to be set for this option to
               work.  JTFOX uses this function on a IIF (Insert If Found)
               basis.

               Since PCBoard can have up to 999 directories per conference,
               an alternate method is used to indicate titles that are to
               be placed in the Upload and Private Upload listing.  The
               file is indicated as follows.

                 X.UPL  <-- For the upload directory
                   
                 X.PRI  <-- For the Private upload directory
                 
                   Conference that directory is located in.

           Process Uploads:

               If for some reason you don't want your Uploads modified by
               JTFOX, set this option of `N'.

           Process Private Uploads:

               This is one of those requested items, which some people
               need, and others well, could care less.  If you don't want
               to have your Private Uploads modified, set this option to
               `N'.

           Process Modified Only :

               Due to an improved method of scanning and creating a header,
               this option has been disabled.

           Create ALLFILES.TXT :

               If set to yes, JTFOX will create a list of all available
               files on your BBS.

           Daily or Weekly building of ALLFILES.TXT

               If you turn on the Allfiles option, another window will open
               asking you if you wish to build the ALLFILES.TXT on a daily
               or weekly basis.  Here's the difference:

          Daily:    This will build a new ALLFILES.TXT everytime that JTFOX
                    is run.  This, in ideal conditions, would mean that an
                    ALLFILES.TXT file would be created every night.

          Weekly:   This option will allow you to pick the day of the week
                    where JTFOX will build a ALLFILES.TXT file.  This then
                    limits the building of such a file to once a week.

           Keep Backup Files:

               If you're not pressed for space, or wish to test JTFOX out,
               without committing yourself, leave this option to yes.  It
               will keep a backup copy of your last DIRx files with the
               extension *.BAK.  If you're pressed for space or are sure
               this program is for you (or just hate *.bak files) set this
               option to no.

          In this screen you will select the colours that will be displayed
          at the top of each DIRx file header.  Everything is configurable,
          from the name of the BBS all the way to the files online and
          offline.  

          Use the Up-Down arrow keys to move through each field.  The field
          you are currently viewing will be highlighted for easier viewing.
          When you wish to edit something press <ENTER>.  The first value
          to change is the foreground colour.  Values range from 1 to 15
          (the colours are at the bottom for quick viewing) and background
          colours range from 1-7 (also at the bottom).  When editing a
          colour you may go between the two fields (background and
          foreground colours) using the up-down arrow keys.  Pressing ESC
          will exit edit mode, and will indicate your new colour settings. 
          Pressing ESC while out of edit mode will take you to the main
          menu screen.

          NOTE:
               It is unadvisable to start playing with the colours while
               you are running SETUP in monochrome mode as you will have no

           Conference Selections:

               This is a pretty straight-forward operation.  Pressing the
               up and down arrow keys, takes you through a list of twenty
               conferences, starting at 1 (Main Board).  Pressing <ENTER>
               will select or deselect a conference (depending on it's
               current status).  To get to another screen of conferences
               (providing you have more than 20) press PgUp or PgDn.  Their
               effects should be self-explanatory.  Keep in mind that this
               is the only part of SETUP that is unaffected by the QUIT AND
               ABORT function.  Selections are saved instantly.  

          NEW FEATURE:

               If you select a conference by getting a @ sign next to it,
               the files in that conference, will be processed but no
               ALLFILES listing will be created.  This is useful for CD-ROM
               Drives which have a static amount of files.

          Features found in ALLFILES:

               ALLFILES.TXT is a straight ASCII file, which includes an
               index (placed at the beginning of the text file) as well as
               two user defined text files.  In the event that a private
               file is created (as indicated by the user in the conference
               selection) this file has the form XXXXXX.TXT where XXXXX is
               the name of the conference as found in PCBoard's CNAMES
               file.  All these files when processed by JTFOX are formatted
               for easy printing.

          NOTE:
               If your conferences have spaces in them, JTFOX will take all
               the letters (up to a maximum of eight) found before the
               spaces, and use them to build a filename.

          NOTE:
               If printing on a laser printer, the printer must be able to
               emulate all fonts above ASCII 127!  
               Also, all text files must be located in the HEADER
               directory.
               
               The naming conventions are as follows:

               ALLFILES.TXT     <--General listing of files
                    ALLFILES.JTF <--Opening ASCII screen (if desired)
                    ALLFILES.END <--Closing ASCII screen (if desired)

               XXXXXXXX.TXT     <--Private listing of files
                    XXXXXXX.JTF <--Opening ASCII screen (if desired)
                    XXXXXXX.END <--Closing ASCII screen (if desired)

          HINT:
               Although JTFOX will weed out duplicate DIRx files, you can

           JTFOX

               Before attempting to run JTFOX 3.60 you must
               make sure of the following things.

                You have selected at least one conference for scanning. 
               (Failure to do so, will cause JTFOX to abort.)

                Make sure that you have at least FILES=30 in your
               CONFIG.SYS file.  JTFOX may have up to 14 files open at the
               same time, so you need that statement.

                Make sure you have at least 100k of free ram.

          NOTE:
               If you are running under a multi-node environment, there is
               no need to take down all the nodes.  JTFOX will not be
               hampered, or hamper the operation of other nodes.  Also,
               JTFOX will check if share is active, and if it is will open
               the files in a way so as to not hamper other nodes which may
               be online.

































          
                                                                 Page 5.1


             JTFOX 3.60                         JTSETUP-Sample Batch File
          

           Batch File

               JTFOX may be run under any conditions (manually or
               automatically).  In most cases however you should run it in
               the nightly event.  The following is a list of modifications
               that you would make to your EVENT.SYS file.

               EVENT.SYS   
               ...........        <-- Previous commands.
               CD C:\PCB\JTFOX30  <-- Change into the JTFOX 3.60 directory
               JTFOX360           <-- Call JTFOX 3.60
               PKZIP F:\UPLOAD\ALLFILES.ZIP ALLFILES.TXT
               ^-- This statement should be used only if you want the 
                   ALLFILES.TXT file zipped for your users viewing.         
                   Remember to add a description of the file in your upload 
                   listing.
               CD \PCB
               BOARD

               That's it.  That's the whole modification bit.  Now if you
               want to run JTFOX 3.60 manually, put yourself in the JTFOX
               3.60 directory and type:
 
               JTFOX360   <-- Use JTFOX.CNF
               JTFOX360 1 <-- Use JTFOX1.CNF

          NOTE:

               Since the DIRx headers are kept separately from the DIRx
               file, PCBFiler cannot chop them around, and they will
               therefore always look perfect.  The need to run JTFOX after
               PCBFiler has been eliminated.

            Registered users

               If you are a registered user, and have problems with the
               operation of JTFOX 3.60 there are several ways that you can
               contact me.

               1)  The easiest way is to leave a message on AAXIS.  I am
               bound to pick it up in a maximum time period of 24 hours. 
               You might also want to leave me a copy of your CNAMES file,
               if you think that the problem is in that.

               2)  You may leave a message in the Administration conference
               of the following Echo-Mail systems.

                Ilink (IL-Sysops)
                Nanet (N-Sysops)
                Fidonet (PCBNet)
                NetMail (1:167/208)
                MTLNet  (17:514/110)
                FrancoMedia (101:162/0) (101:167/100) (101:167/101)
                              
               A message left to me in any of these echos should get to
               AAXIS within 2-3 days.  Netmail is considerably faster.

               3)  If you really can't wait, you can call me at my voice
               number (514) 274-1856.


           Unregistered Users

               If you haven't registered JTFOX 3.60 you may repeat all of
               the above steps EXCEPT no. 3.  Even if you just want to ask
               little questions like how to register, etc. I urge you to
               use methods 1 and 2.
