                           By : Dennis Maidon
                          The Parole Board BBS
                             (919) 965-4696
                             (919) 965-9885

                    ================================
NOTICE! CVTWCTXT v3.1 will *ONLY* operate with WC!3.9.  DO NOT use this
on previous releases of Wildcat!
                    ================================

     This program is provided free of charge to any and all WILDCAT! 3.0
SysOps.  It is NOT guaranteed to do anything whatsoever, so if it
doesn't work for you, you haven't lost a thing.

     CVTWCTXT will read the WCTEXT(R).DAT and WCTEXT(R).DEF files and print
them out in an ASCii file.  Numbers are provided with each prompt so
that you can refer to the correct prompt quickly in MKWCTEXT.  You may
now run CVTWCTXT.EXE while the BBS is in operation.  All files are
opened in SHARE mode.

     The WCTEXT.DEF file is the file that stores the default prompts and
WCTEXT.DAT stores the prompts that your BBS currently uses.  You may
change these files as you see fit.  The file created by CVTWXTXT is in
the following format.

 18 :                                                    <- Prompt #
DEF : Enter starting line to delete [@0F@@SUB@@0E@] <- Original
DAT : @0A@Enter starting line to delete [@0F@@SUB@@0E@] <- Revised


     CVTWCTXT will create a file named PROMPT.TXT which you can read
with any ASCii editor or by just TYPEing it to the screen.

ENJOY!

WCTEXT.DAT, WCTEXT.DEF, WCTEXTR.DAT, WCTEXTR.DEF, WCFTEXT.DAT and
WCFRTEXT.DAT  must be present inVthe same directory for CVTWCTXT to
function.

Make a backup of your prompt files before running this utility.
