Importing FILES.BBS
MUTIL can import various formats of FILES.BBS into Mystic BBS using options configured in the supplied .INI file.
NOTE: In the examples configurations below, the only real notable options that need to be defined are the “DESC_FIRST” “DESC_START” and “DESC_CHAR” options. The others are specific to functionality, not the format of the files.bbs file itself.
Example Configuration #1
This FILES.BBS format has no description on the first line and each description line is determined by a pipe character at column 3. An example entry looks like this:
TEST1.ZIP 511579 01-17-96 | This is a test file description | And this is the second line
The INI [Import_FILES.BBS] stanza for MUTIL would be configured like so:
filesbbs = files.bbs uploader_name = Mystic BBS update_files = false desc_first = -1 desc_char = | desc_start = 3 delete_after = false
