	  BST - Tagline replacer by Bjørn Stærk ver. 1.05
		       

BST is an utility designed to replace your offliners tag with your own. 

To configure BST, do the following:

1 - Edit "tag.bat", and replace the default path to find your .rep files in with
	your own.

2 - Edit "bst.cfg", where the second line should contain the default tagline
	to use, and the fourth the file to use for random tags. 
	Line six contains the tag to search for and replace. The default is
	'---π' as this is what most qwk-readers use before they put
	their own tag in, and everything coming after this is deleted and
	replaced with your own tag. If you should have an offliner which
	doesn't use '---π' before their own tag, you should replace it with
	with whatever is used instead. Remember that the 'π' (alt-227) 
	is used instead of linefeed, so '---π' actually means '---' + enter.
	
	The last line in bst.cfg is where you choose wether to let
	BST choose random taglines for you, or to do it yourself.
	(Random = 0, choose = 1). If you decide to choose your own
	tags, pressing the left or right key will take you to the
	next/last tag in the choose random tags file. 
	Commands:       'v'     - View current message.
			'r'     - Random tag.
			't'     - Type in your own tag.
			ESC     - No tag _at all_ in this message.


3 - Create your own default tagline. 
	The tag-file you specified in line 2 in "bst.cfg" can be as long 
	as 1000 characters, which should be enough for most people... 
	An ASCII table is included to help you create good looking tags. 
	To use random tags, you must put the character '' (alt-27) 
	wherever you want a character of the random tag to be. 
	Every occurance of '' in your default tag is replaced with one 
	character of your random tag.                                         

4 - Type 'tag' + the name of the rep-file WITHOUT the '.rep' extension to
	start BST. (example: 'tag mybbs' to tag messages in mybbs.rep)

BST will always take a backup of your .rep file, just in case. 
If anything goes wrong, you can always find the backup in the
current directory.

BST is public domain. Please distribute it to wherever you want, as long 
as you don't take any payment more than distribution costs, and don't
change the code. If you really like this program, and want to
support me with either money, ideas, money, bug-reports, money, 
or something else (like money...), call Rolvsøy BBS (69338991) and 
leave me a message, a bomb, or your credit card number. 
If you have access to Internet, e-mail me at "staerk@rol.bbs.no".

I will not be responsible for any damage done to your software,
hardware, files, brain, hair, messages or anything I can't think
of right now, caused by this program. However, I will be responsible
for good-looking tags, fast tag replacing and other goodies.

BST is written in Borland C++ 3.0.
