1.	INTRODUCTION
	============
	WHO'S CALLED TODAY is a wcCODE program that lists the caller's
	to your BBS for the day. The list is reset automatically each
	day.

	You, as sysop, may choose from 1 to 8 different categories to
	be displayed, as well as the color each category is to be dis-
	played in.

	WHO's CALLED TODAY will detect user's who drop carrier, and
	the words "DROPPED CARRIER" will in the "From" field in the
	list.




2.	SETTING UP WHO'S CALLED TODAY
	=============================

	WHO'S CALLED TODAY may be set up in two ways. You may choose 
	either, or both ways.


	SETTING UP AS PART OF LOGON SEQUENCE
	====================================

	To have WHO'S CALLED TODAY run as part of your logon sequence,
        you may simply use the "logon.wcx" and wclogon.wcx files pro-
        vided with this package. 
	
	If you wish to modify the location of Who Called in your
	logon sequence, and if you have wcCODE 4, you may place a run 
	call to whocalld.wcx in the LOGON.WCC file (located in the
	CODESAMP directory), re-compile, and then place logon.wcx in 
        the WildCat directory. The run command MUST look like: 
			run "whocalld.wcx", "/G"
	
	You will also need to copy the wclogon.wcx file from the 
	CODESAMP directory to your Wildcat directory. 
	
	
	SETTING UP AS A MENU SELECTION
	==============================

	To set up as a menu selection, set WHO'S CALLED TODAY up as any
	other .wcx program on your menu. 

	You ** MUST ** specify the "/G" parameter.
	

	LOG OFF SEQUENCE
	================

	WHO'S CALLED TODAY is set to run at log off in the enclosed
	postcall.wcx file. 

	If you have your own custom logoff procedure, in order for
	WHO CALLED TODAY to work properly, you must call it PRIOR
	to "hangup", and ** DO NOT USE ANY COMMAND LINE SWITCHES!!! **
	Simply: "run whocalld.wcx". 

	REMEMBER: Only use the "/G" command line switch when the caller
        will be VIEWING the information, NOT AT LOG OFF!!



3.	THE CONFIGURATION FILE OPTIONS
	==============================

	This is really where WHO'S CALLED TODAY shines! What to dis-
	play, and what colors to use, is entirely up to you!	

	You may have WHO'S CALLED TODAY display any or all of the
	following fields:

	Caller's Name, Where called from, Node they logged on to,
	The time they logged on, Time spent online, Number of files
        uploaded, Number of files downloaded, and Number of messages
	left.

        To choose these, simply modify the whocalld.cfg file as described 
        next.

        Note: ** DO NOT CHANGE THE ORDER OF THE ENTRIES ** in whocalld.cfg!

        A sample whocalld.cfg file may look like: (it may be upper or lower 
        case - either is fine)

	NAME = BRIGHT WHITE	// display this field in bright white
	FROM = BRIGHT BLUE	// display this field in bright blue
	NODE = 			// don't display this field
	TIME ON = CYAN		// display in cyan
	MINUTES =  RED		// display in red
        UPLOADS =               // don't display
	DOWNLOADS = 		// same
	MSGS = BRIGHT MAGENTA	// display in bright magenta

	As you can see, by specifying a color after the field, it will
	be displayed in that color. Specifying nothing after the = sign
	means that the field will not be displayed. Simplicity itself!!

	The colors you may use are: Blue, Green, Cyan, Red, Magenta,
	Yellow, and White. To make these "bright", use the word BRIGHT
        before the color!

	Note: Yellow used without the word BRIGHT, actually looks kind of
        brown, or orangey.


4.	BENEFITS OF REGISTERING
	=======================

        The 15 second beeping delay before you can re-use the node will be
        disabled!

	That alone should be worth the huge sum of $4.00 to register this
	program!!

	To register, fill out the form REGISTER.TXT, and mail it in with
        your $4.00.


Thank you, and enjoy WHO'S CALLED TODAY!
