(word processor parameters LM=8, RM=75, TM=2, BM=2) Taken from KeelyNet BBS (214) 324-3501 Sponsored by Vangard Sciences PO BOX 1031 Mesquite, TX 75150 There are ABSOLUTELY NO RESTRICTIONS on duplicating, publishing or distributing the files on KeelyNet except where noted! November 9, 1992 MESSUP1.ASC -------------------------------------------------------------------- The following information is intended to save you money when logging into KeelyNet or other Wildcat based BBSs. This file tells how to upload pre-written messages or ANSI images DIRECTLY to the KeelyNet message base. The idea is to screen capture the messages you want, then hang up, write up as detailed a response as you wish, then log back on and transmit your pre-written responses into the message base. -------------------------------------------------------------------- The technique is quite simple. An input string for a single line to be inserted in the Wildcat message base cannot exceed 72 characters. So, if you have a word processor, then set your parameters for Top Margin = 1, Bottom Margin = 1, Left Margin = 1, Right Margin = 70 and the Line Length should be 0. Then simply type in the message you wish to send to the message base, and save it in ASCII format. Next, log on to KeelyNet, go to the message base, you can either 'R' - Reply to an existing message, or select 'E' for Enter a new message. Then when the system comes up with the 1st line, tell your communication program to upload using the ASCII protocol. Type in the name of the pre-written message you wish to send to the message base and watch as the message is transferred. When it stops, press enter (may be required a couple of times), then press L to list it, or E to edit it or S to save it if you are satisfied with the way it came across. OK?? Well, I tried it and it works OK, except if the system exhibits any noise...it will be incorporated into the message. -------------------------------------------------------------------- If you have comments or other information relating to such topics as this paper covers, please upload to KeelyNet or send to the Vangard Sciences address as listed on the first page.
