!PozChat/Docs/Instruct

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

!PozChat v0.90 by James Porritt
===============================

Release
=======

This release (0.90) of the program is freeware, although it could
conceivably become shareware in the future. In any case please I would be
pleased to hear from anyone who runs it seriously.

Version 0.90 is quite a break-away from previous versions, and is due to its
parallel development with the Unix version.

If you are upgrading from a previous version (before 0.90), then I would
advise NOT dragging !PozChat over an old version, but to have a brand new
copy.

Overview
========

This talker provides a lot of the features which I like in talkers, and is
easy for a beginner to start on. I want a talker which I can talk on straight
away, without having to wade through pages of introduction and tons of stuff
on location, story, etc.

Connecting and Talking
======================

To connect merely telnet to the port defined in the preferences window.

You will be asked for an account name. If the name you enter does not have an
account then you will be logged straight in as a guest, otherwise you will be
asked for the password.

Talking is merely a matter of typing the text you want to say.

When you first connect you will be in group Public, and only people in that
group will be able to hear what you say. To see who is on the talker type:
.who

You can also check who is on the talker without even having to connect, by
telnetting to port defined in the preferences window.


Commands
========

A user can only access a command if his privilege is greater than or equal
to that of the command. If not then the talker will appear not to be aware of
that command.

A list of commands can be found in the talker by typing .commands.

There do exist various shorthand ways of performing some of these commands.
They are as following:

"<message>" would send "<username>   : <message>" to the current group.

"`<message>" would send "<username>   : <message>" to the current group.

": <message>"  would send "<username> <message>" to the current group.

":: <message>" would send either "<username>'s <message>" or 
"<username>' <message>" (depending on which is gramatically correct) to
the current group.

";<message>" would send "<username><message>" to the current group.

"! <message>" would send "<username>   !<message>" to everyone on the talker.

"> <otheruser> <message>" would send "<username>   > <message>" to user
<otheruser>

">> <groupname> <message>" would send "<username>   >> <message>" to group
<groupname>"

"< <otheruser> <message>" would send "<username> <message>" to user
<otheruser>

"<< <groupname> <message>" would send "<username> <message>" to group
<groupname>

Online Help
===========

Help is provided on all commands by typing: .help <command>, and you can
addhelp on any item by putting a file with that name into the
<PozChat$Files>.Help directory.

Accounts
========

Accounts can be created/changed with a text editor, and putting the
relevantly named account into the Accounts directory located inside the main
!PozChat directory. In previous versions of !PozChat an accounts window has
existed which has allowed 'simpler' editing of accounts, but since I've
changed the way accounts are stored the window has been removed from this
version.

Flags
=====

A quick note on which flags can be set with which commands.

.SET/.UNSET

  VT100 - sets wether important text is displayed in bold or not.
  CR    - sets wether carriage returns are sent as well as line feeds.
  ECHO  - sets wether user input is echoed.
  BEEP  - sets wether the users terminal beeps whenever anyone connects.

.TSET/.TUNSET

  BEEP            - Makes the host computer beep whenever anyone connects
  GUESTVT100      }
  GUESTCR         } Sets what flags are set in the guest account
  GUESTECHO       }
  GUESTBEEP       }
  
.TSET
  
  LOG <value>     - Sets the talker log level to <value>
  CHATPORT <port> - Sets the port the talker starts on.
  WHOPORT <port>  - Sets the port the .who information is available on.

.TUNSET

  LOG             - Stops talker logging



Advanced Connection
===================

The .who, .info and .quit commands are available from the login prompt. This
is to enable you to see who is connected before you logon.

Preceding your username with special characters will change the action of
your login. Putting a '*' before your name will kick you off the talker if
you already have a connection to it. You might need this if your client
crashes unexpectedly and you want to log in again quickly. A '_' before your
username will log you in invisibly, should that facility be available to you.

Priviliges
==========

Note that .SETPRIVS only temporarily sets a users privileges. For security of
the talker I thought it best if privileges in the account file can only
be set from the main account window.

Groups
======

Groups can be entered with the group command. If you try to enter a group
which doesnt exist, then it is created and you become the group master of
that group. If you are a group master then you can .lock/.unlock the group,
from being entered from outside. See below for details. Group 'Public' is
special because no one can be the master of it or lock it. It can however be
locked by people with a privilege level of 9.

When a group is locked from being entered from the outside, all people in the
group at that time are given leave to come and go from it as they wish. Other
people can be added/removed to this list, by anyone in the locked group using
the .invite/.uninvite commands.

To remove someone from a group use .evict. Note that you either have to have
a privilege level of 5 or greater or be the group master. If someone is
evicted from a locked group, then they are also uninvited from that group. 

Note that if a user has a privilege level of 9, then they automatically have
group master privileges.

Users with a privilege level of 9 can see what is being said in a group they
arent in by using the .spy command. Note that if a group you are spying on
becomes empty then you will automatically stop spying on it, even if it
becomes active again in the future.

Visibility
==========

Users can make themselves invisible with the .invis command. This means that
they become invisible to users with a privilege level less than 9. Invisible
users can not speak, and they in turn can not be whisperd to, gagged or
ignored by people who cant see them. Visibility is achieved again by use of
the .vis command. 

When the .invis command is used you appear to those that can not see you to
log out of the talker, by means of a disconnection message. A log in message
is also faked when you re-emerge.

User Interface
==============

The !PozChat icon on the iconbar displays the total number of users connected
below it. Clicking select on it brings up the main window, from which various
user statistics can be obtained. There is also an option to kick the user
off. At the moment it doesnt tell them or anyone else why!

Clicking adjust on the !PozChat icon on the Icon bar brings up the talker
control window. From this it is possible to broadcast a message to everyone
on the talker.

From the menu a preferences window can be brought up to configure various
aspects of the talker. The options on here are mirrored by the .TSET/.TUNSET
command.

From the preferences window you can also switch on logging, which at the
moment logs relatively few things, but eventually could log everything from
the talker starting and stopping, to all conversation being logged.

Configuration
=============

All text files used by the talker itself, are stored in <PozChat$Files>. By
default this is set to !PozChat.Files although you could conceivably change
this to something else. When you first telnet to the talker you see the file:
<PozChat$Files>.Intro After you successfully connect, you see the file:
<PozChat$Files>.Welcome

Updates
=======

This program will be updated as and when I find bugs with it, or become aware
of how things could be better implemented, or extra features added. Please
feel free to email me, telling me of any problems or suggestions to do with
!PozChat.

There a likely to be quite a few updates to this talker, as I have a tendancy
of releasing software and then finding a bug in it. :*) If you are quite
enthused by this program, that why not email me and you can perhaps become a
beta tester?

This talker has a Unix counterpart. Please contact me if you are interested
in such a beast!

Thanks
======

Some bits of this talker are very like (in spirit, not code!) to a talker
written by Nick Waterman and the Nilex programming team. My thanks go to him
for creating a no-nonsense style for a talker for people who dont want MUD on
their faces :*)

My thanks also to Kevin Wheatley (HxPro) for the source code to his talker
which I was able to reference to see how he had implemented certain things,
as my C programming skills arent perfect yet. :*)

A big thank-you to Julian Smith for maintaining the code for DeskLib, which
proved invaluable for programming the WIMP interface, as well as providing
debugging windows!

An infinitely big thank you to David Good for actually running the talker on
his computer, for a glorius 3 months in 1996.

Thanks for bug spotting go to:

Gareth Long
David Good
Joseph Heenan
William Turner
