BNU is up to ver 1.70 (reg) and 1.8x beta. There is also a WINFOSSIL (ver 1.1) that might do what you need for the local windows load. OR: have you tried loading X00 as an ".exe" in the local use?

UPLOAD MSG Opus now allows text files to be uploaded directly into the Message Section. Uses Xmodem transfer protocol. If you can't call yourself, use your "preffered" wordprocessor instead of the onboard one. OR ELSE: LOCAL EDITOR %s Definition: Specifies the use of an external editor with Opus. If you use an external message editor, it will be available to anybody who has a privilege equal to SYSOP or HIDDEN. When replying to messages, Opus will quote the entire previous message using > NN: where NN are your initials. Required: No Example: To specify an external editor in keyboard mode, put this in your control file: LOCAL EDITOR %s The "" is the name of the program with any parameters. You cannot call a batch file here. The "%s" is required. Opus will substitute a file name where it finds the "%s". For example, if your editor takes a command line switch "-f" for filename, you could put "-f%s" in the control file line: LOCAL EDITOR C:\Brief\B -t -z -r -a -e -L43 %s If you want to use your external message editor ON- LINE as well as in keyboard mode, put an exclamation point in front of the as in: LOCAL EDITOR !D:\Myeditor %s If you absolutely must use a batch file, you can do something like this: Local Editor C:\COMMAND.COM editor.Bat %s TECHNICAL NOTE: The "%s" is not absolutely necessary. You could use MSGTMP.TMP instead. In any event, Opus will look for a file called "MSGTMP.TMP" in the default sub-directory when you exit your editor. The program flow looks like this: 1. execute the program named as the external editor 2. convert MSGTMP.TMP to a message. The point is that you do not actually have to go to an editor. You can execute any program. If MSGTMP.TMP exists when the program finishes, Opus will turn it into a message.

The sysop can use a program like TIMED from the console. The user can use the U)pload command in the message area. Opus will tell the user to commence the upload. The user should use X-Modem CRC, no matter what Opus says. --- Opus-CBCS 1.73a * Origin: Up in James' Attic (412)-431-2891 (1:129/260.0) --------------- FIDO MESSAGE AREA==> TOPIC: 195 MEADOW Ref: DA100007 Date: 05/31/96 From: JOHN NEMMER Time: 09:03pm \/To: KEN PATIENCE (Read 1 times) Subj: Re: Question > How do you go importing a text file as a message into a > message base within Opus? > > --- Opus-CBCS 1.73a Use ^KH then pick disk file, then enter the path to the disk file Do this after you already start the message by picking to who and subject.
