Simply:-
ED BP MOTD
I <Enter>
OPEN 'file' TO file THEN
READ MOTD FROM file,'MOTD' THEN
CNT=DCOUNT(MOTD,@FM)
FOR X=1 TO CNT; CRT MOTD<X>; EXT X
CRT; CRT 'Read and Press Enter To Continue'; INPUT
WHATEVER:
STOP
END ELSE
CRT; CRT 'No Message Of The Day'; CRT; STOP
END
END ELSE
CRT; CRT 'No MOTD File'; CRT; STOP
END
<Enter>
FI
"file" is whatever file you wish to use even &TEMP& or CTL (general control
file)?
Compile and include line
RUN BP MOTD
in your LOGIN paragraph
To create the message:-
ED file MOTD (or wED or whatever editor)
I
Type whatever message you want to display here
<Enter>
FI
To delete the message
ED file MOTD
FD
Like I said it is simple. Assumes the message is less than a screen full
and each line is less than screen width.
No flames please - I said it is simple.

Subject: [U2] New to UV/PICK, programming a banner
Hello,
I am new to PICK/UniVerse and was wondering if someone could help me with
some BASIC code or a PROC instructions to get me going on a banner program
that will display before, or after, the "Logon Please:" prompt (but after
the initial telnet server login).
Preferrably I'd like a unix style /etc/motd type thing (we're on Windows
of
course so that is not available, UV 10.2.) that I could update
periodically
with wED and update for our users to see.
Can anyone help with this?
Thanks,
Gabe
