Subject: Mascot 1.4 - A Utility for FC Admins
Public Release Version - Freeware
By Mike Romaniuk (romaniuk@direct.ca)
What does Mascot do?
Mascot preforms 4 different functions for First Class Administrators:
Desktop -> Batch Admin
will take a Desktop/Conference Capture and convert it to a batch admin
command to make those conferences/folders on another server (good if you
want to start gating a large number of conferences).
Desktop -> Format
will take a CORRUPTED desktop capture (ie - one with no returns in it; due
to a bug in First Class) and convert it to a normal conference campture for
use with programs such as Conference List Tool (Mascot automatically
detects & fixes corrupted captures so don't worry about converting captures
your are JUST going to use with Mascot).
Text -> Batch Admin
will take a return delimited list of conferences/folders (in a text file)
and convert it to batch admin to create those conferences on a server.
Batch Admin -> Data Base
will convert a user list to a comma delimited document, which can be
imported to most data base programs. It is in the following format:
Class, User Id, Password, First, Middle, Last, Address, Voice Number, Fax
Number ,Privilege Groups
What has happened since Vesrion 1.3?
* Complete Script Overhall (Optimized, Debugged, Etc.)
* Cleaned up the main screen & documentation
* Deleted the 150k Splash Sound - Mascot is now SMALL for those who are
hard drive space impaired.
* Updated General Information.
* Added a formatting function for fixing desktop captures without returns,
so they can be used by programs such as Conference Creator.
* Ripped out some unused functions.
* Added a better online error system.
* Fixed up the online help system.
