Note: Work is still in progress and there probably are bugs. If
you find any, or have any comments or suggestions please pass
them along to me as soon as possible.
┌────────────────────────────────────╖
│ Introduction to TRSi Release Maker ║
└════════════════════════════════════╝
TRSi Release Maker welcomes you to the most comprehensive
Pirate tool in production. This unique program is capable of
doing everything automaticly you did manual before, when
creating a new TRSi release. This includes repacking, packing,
and adding of files as well as editing release infos, release
notes and File_ID.DIZ. It also comes whith a scrollable ANSI
.nfo File in textmode that will include all neccessary data you
usualy type in your lame ASCII .nfo. In addition it will support
a complete TRSi Release History of your Releases. I hope the
TRSi Release Maker provides you with as much pleasure as I
intended with its creation.

│ TRSI Realease Maker Installation ║
└════════════════════════════════════╝
First read the whole documentation!
Just unzip the archive (with -) in its own directory.
If you did not unzip the archive with -d you must create two
subdirectorie names RELEASE and WORK. The processed files
will be stored as ready-to-courier-archives in the release
directory. The work directory will be used by the Release Maker
itself for storing temporary files.
Be sure that at least PKZIP is in your path or better create
an own directory for all your arcers and put it into your path
statement.
Then edit TRSI-RM.CFG and start TRSI-RM.EXE.
┌────────────────────────────────────╖
│ The TRSI-RM.CFG File ║
└════════════════════════════════════╝
The TRSI-RM.CFG file consits of three lines:
- 1st line : Full path to the default starting directory.
(e.g. C:\TERM\DOWNLOAD\)
- 2nd line : Full path and file name to the ZIP Header.
(e.g. C:\TRSI\HEADER.NFO);
- 3rd line : Full path and file name to your BBS addy.
(e.g. C:\TRSI\MYBBS.EXE);

You are now able to select the files, drives and directories
you whish to process. You can navigate freely through your
drives and directories and tag files. Tagged files will not be
stored if you change to another drive or another directory.
After this a window will pop up, where you can enter the
release information the program needs to process the release.
The fields should be quite self explaining but a few words to
some special one.
The release date and time field will make use of a multi
dimensional picklist. By starting the editing it will get your
system's current date and time. If you change the year, month,
day or hour the next default selection will be update after
the following logic.
If you change:
Year - Month = January, Day = 1st, Hour = 18, Min = 00
Month - Day = 1st, Hour = 18, Min = 00
Day - Hour = 18, Min = 00
Hour - Min = 00
This logic will have the advantage that you only need to
increment the day for a standard release to set its normal
couriering date and time to 18:00 next day. Quite easy, isn't
it?
Keep in mind that you need to specify destination file name,
release date, number of disks, release title, supplier,
packager and the File_ID.DIZ title before you can process a
file!
Key configuration during file selection:
■ Cursor Keys - Navigate through the current
directory.
■ Return - Change to highlighted drive or
directory.
■ Space - Tag file, drive or directory tree.
■ ESC - Start release notes editing.
Key configuration during release editing:
■ ALT - X - Aborts file processing.
■ ALT - R - Use previous file info! Very useful
for creating multiple disk releases.
You just need to change the destinaion
name and the File_ID.DIZ title.

commands are not able to delete and copy file with
subdirectories without external files. Included 4DOS which is
used for copy and delete. Maybe a later version will support
