An ARCHIVED Full List of Files Available
-----------------------------Cut Here----------------------------
Line 1 is the number of drives you are using
Line 2 is the drive names seperated by a comma
Line 3 is your main BBS folder name
Line 4 is your bbs DAT folder name
Line 5 is either 1, 2 or 0,this corresponds to wether you want ROOT1.TXT or
       ROOT2.TXT or no header file created.
Line 6 is the maximum access level that you want to appear in the lists
Line 7 is the number of file areas you want listed
Line 8-Line xx are the name of the folder followed by a comma and then the
               minimum access level of the user you want to be able to read
               that file, after the second comma there is a description,
               This allows you to describe the types of programs you have
               in that particular section.
               Using a ! will make the program just use 'File section' then
               the Folder Name for the description.
               The line following is the FULL path and filename of a header
               file which you want appended to the top of the database entry
               Leaving this line blank will use the default fileFILEBASE.ALL

The Line following the folder names is the full PATH of the database you
want to construct WITHOUT a terminating \

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
|(all the following filenames must follow the constraints of maximum 8  |
|letters for the name and max 3 for the extension (May sound obvious but|
|you would be surprised at some of the Bug reports I get)               |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Next Line (tavern.txt) is the name you want the FULL list to be named ,
if you leave this blank then FULL.TXT is used.

The Following Line (latest.txt) is the name of the xx Days uploads list,
leaving it blank will force Filebase to make the file xxDays.txt

The line beneath the xx Days list name is the number of extra files not
created by Filebase, that you want added to the database.

There then follows 3 lines per each extra file.

The filename (no Path) of a file that you want added to the database file.

Followed by a line containing the access level for the extra file

Then underneath that is the description to appear in the database.

e.g. If you had 2 files that filebase did not create and you wanted them
added to the database (an archived version of FULL.TXT and a file with
information about the BBS in it say) you would use the following text minus
the comments.

2                               ; Number of extra files
FULL.LZH                        ; Name of File
0                               ; Access Level
Archive Full list of files      ; Description
BBSINFO.TXT                     ; Name of File
0                               ; Access Level
Information about this BBS      ; Description

This can  be used to add an archived full list of files into the database
for example , you can add as many files to the database as you want.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The option 1 or 2 for Root1.txt or Root2.txt has the following differences

Root1.txt

This will make FILEBASE create a header file , after which the filenames
will be the same as the download section names and the descriptions will
be taken from the .INF file, Turbo will display the database entries after
the header file.

Root2.txt

This will make the menu in one text file which will be displayed INSTEAD
of the file entries .

One thing you want to watch for when you use Root2 is that your file areas
which are above normal user access level are put at the bottom of the
database, otherwise Turbo will move the following file entries up one in
the database when a normal user logs in and they might not get the file
they requested when they enter the number of a database file.
