Output of file : README.TXT contained in archive : PCQUOT11.ZIP
PCQUOTE version 1.1

The enclosed files are Procomm Plus for Windows 2.0 ASPECT script files
that automate quoting messages on The Programmer's Corner BBS. The
comments in the source code file, PCQUOTE.WAS, explain the operation of
the script in detail. The file PCQUOTE.WAX is the compiled script. The
file UTIL.INC is an include file used by the script.

You should copy all three of the above-mentioned files to your ASPECT
directory. You might want to assign the script to a metakey to make it
more easily accessible.

This release fixes a minor bug in the original version when the person
being quoted is "SYSOP". This code is highly specific to The
Programmer's Corner BBS, and if Gary changes menus or message headers,
it will have to repaired. Since I have a "lifetime" membership on TPC,
I will probably be continuing to maintain this script. It was fun to
write, but definitely a PAIN to debug. But I can now say I'm pretty
familiar with Aspect...

I declare this code to be in the PUBLIC DOMAIN, and I take no responsi-
bility for its suitability, correct operation, wow factor, hair loss,
etc. I would be interested in getting feedback, however. And if you
find a bug, please notify me by leaving me a message on The Programmer's
Corner or on the Internet ([email protected]). I do not promise to fix
bugs in a timely manner, or even at all, barring a suitable bribe. Not
that anyone's ever given me one...

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
