Short: PC-style "Connect Interface" for Genesis TCP-Stack. Author: Tuomas Aho Uploader: Tuomas Aho Type: comm/tcp Version: 1.0 Architecture: m68k-amigaos Easy Connect Interface for Genesis TCP-Stack! Copyright: ---------- ECI v1.00 The GUI routines based on Exmp3 GUI by Samppa Rönkkä & Tuomas Aho. Rest code writted by Tuomas Aho. What is ECI: ------------ I needed program which shows status when connecting to internet and closes itself when connect is estabilished. ECI do this and more.. Shortly: ECI is PC-style "Connect Interface" for Genesis TCP-Stack. Features: --------- - shows errormessages in requesters. - All is done by ECI fully automaticly (atleast should be...) - Internal REXX-system, NO any scripts needed. (v1.00b2+) - Can get new mail (Currently supports only YAM..) (optional) - Can run your favorit WWW-browser after connection is estabilished. - When connect is established, EMC closes itself. Please follow these instructions or ECI will never work. Installing ECI: --------------- Step 1) INSTALL: GENESIS Tcp-Stack Step 2) EDIT GENESIS CONFIG: Run GENESISPREFS and edit following: 1) Click Modems/TAs --> Click your modem. 2) Set "REDIAL ATTEMPTS" to 0. 3) Click "OK" 4) Click Options --> Misc 5) "LOG LEVEL" must be "DEBUG" 6) "LOGFILE LEVEL" must be "DEBUG" too. 7) Set "LOGFILE" same as ECI's "GenesisLog" ie."T:AmiTcp.Log" 8) "SAVE" settings.. Step 3) EDIT EMC CONFIG: 1) Set first line of config same as the "LOGFILE" in GenesisPrefs. 2) Set second line of config as YAM, if you want to ECI to check your mail. ONLY YAM is at the moment supported by ECI. NOTE: Leave it empty, if you don't want to use this option. 3) Set third line of config as your WWW_browser (with a full path) NOTE: Leave it empty, if you don't want to use this option. Step 4) ADD GENESIS to STARTUP: Just add "RUN <>NIL: AmiTcp:GenesisRA" to your startup. Step 5) REBOOT REBOOT your machine. Step 6) RUN FROM SHELL ECI cli-Arguments are: ECI ONLINE for go ONLINE. ECI OFFLINE for go OFFLINE. Extra/ dir contains two scripts, which you can use with AMIDOCK... History: ------- 1.00b0,22.04.2001,Int: Added: Arguments ONLINE, OFFLINE Misc: Most of debug stuff are removed.. 1.00b1,23.04.2001,Int: Fixed: YAM-mailcheck didn't work. Misc: Init Str¡ng remomoved. Added: Offline() Now checks that the system is really logged off.. Note: Routine is buggy - This is still under construction. Added: Logfile reading loop --> small improvements. Added: Start routines --> mailcheck tempfile improvements. 1.00b2 25.04.2001,Pub: Added: Major improvement. No more external scripts. Now ECI handles "ONLINE", "OFFLINE" and "MAILFETCH" internally! Added: Removed mailcheck tempfile system :) We don't need it anymore... Added: Now checks that the TCP-Stack is running before do nothing! Note: This is still under construction. Added: I just wrote docs, prefs system does not even exists yet! ;) Added: "Auto Snapshot"-feature. (Remembers window position) Added: (Very) Simple configuration system. To Do: - Write better configuration system - Add support for other email-programs (i need scripts...) - .....
