                 FILE Ehi


  Continue to acquaint all users
SpbZxNet with innovations designed to
do the work in the network more convenient and
comfortable. As it was planned long ago,
in our network file input-ekhi. Familiar with
fidoshnymi file ehami may again be unhappy because SpbZxNet 
under File-ehoy "means not quite what they used to. However, it 
should take into account that Spectrum - This is not PC, that 
SpbZxNet - it's not Fido, and certainly not an Internet, that 
Vicomm 2400 - this is not Hayes 14400. Therefore, well, did not 
we do a file-ekhi the same as in Fido, and it is not necessary. 


  1. Opening a file ekhi.


  Fehu opens moderator existing echo-conference, if there is a 
need to share its subscribers various files. Until now, the 
subscriber was placed in aria announcement that such a station

bbs is such a file. It is not always
convenient, especially if some other
Subscribers do not even registered on
this station.


  To open the file ekhi, the moderator sends notification sysop 
central hub make their wishes regarding the expected daily 
maximum of its size, and also indicates the existence of Fahey 
applications in the rules of its echo area. 


  Called file-ekhi by adding
". FILES" to the title of the conference itself,
for example, "SPBZXNET.GENERAL.FILES". Hence
that is undesirable to use
fragment ". FILES" in the title itself ehooblasti.


  2. The rules put the files into Fahey.


  - The maximum daily amount for
Each file is installed ekhi sysop
central hub (a hub, which converges on which links against the 
entire echo-mail), depending on the workload throughout the 
online postage with a maximum daily amount of different file-ah 
may differ from each other, because in some fehah is little 
files (for example, SPBZXNET.GENERAL), while in others - a lot 
(for example, SZN.GAMES - hope that such someday).



  - Before placing a file in the user
file-echo, he must first get permission moderator, the 
moderator ensures that the daily amount Fahey did not exceed 
the maximum level and if all files from the program "does not 
fit in fehu for one day, send the remaining

there in the next few days


  - After receiving permission moderator
the user writes a small text
I've found a commentary about what exactly is it
sends fehu, calls him "ReadMe.C"
(As a newspaper of the same name:) ZIP'uet type
"NORMAL" (!) - Save time sisopov -
all the files that it will be placed in fehu that day, 
including "ReadMe.C", called the archive "dd_ . Z", 
where "dd" - of the current month, and "" -

reduction taken for the echo of the conference. Between the 
date and the name must Fahey not go "-" as in echo, and "_" - 
is also one of the attributes file ekhi.



  If the zip-archive into several files, then
each of them should be called by the
same name!


  File Format "ReadMe" (an example):

  Hello, All!

 With the knowledge and permission of a moderator putting
 Mouzon "Illusion" by Arno from ZxNews 28.

 ProTracker v2.01 compiled song.


   Bye, Ivan.

--- OC Pink Floyd:)
 * Origin: this could be your ad - $ 5 (812/99.99)


             --------------

  Ie ReadMe file must contain
detailed information on how to use (start) data bend and that
it actually is.


  - Send archive bbs (or soon to
your hub if you node), with the bbs it gets
the hub, with a hub - a central hub from which the file-echo 
already dealt with Conference to all other nodes-subscribers.



  - The penalty for violation of any rule
sending letters to fehu - Disconnect from Fahey for a period of 
three months (read only); for disorders should be the moderator 
and he's off by Fahy 


  3. Conclusion.


  Finally I would like to point out the
fact that these rules - is not conclusive. It may be conceived 
more quick and easy distribution system

file-oh. On this course, we also
describe in the pages of Newskah.


  Remember that file-echo - it pretty
troublesome for all levels, taking
involved in its shipment. Therefore, try to throw in Fahy only 
what you need, or small in size. Request to moderators with 
special care to follow for this and did not give permission for 
the premises, say, Lode Runner'a (too old), or UFOs (too big) 
... 


                  HATS


  Another innovation, which, for some reason, someone knows and 
who does not know. : ( 


  In the interior of private letters in the box
"Area:" also wrote NETMAIL, not PRIVATE, in the fields "from:" 
and "to:" - only the name / name and address in parentheses 
indicate no needed.
