Short: See how much you spend on phonecalls - note: for Swedish users! Author: grok@karkis.canit.se Uploader: grok karkis canit se Type: comm/misc Architecture: m68k-amigaos >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Hm to begin with - if some of you from outside Sweden would like to use this kind of prog I might compose it - but then email me about it - fees and rules for telecosts in your country. In fact you *can* use this prog if it's enough with only 4 costlevels which is what we have in Sweden now. It's just that all words in the program are adapted for Sweden. The cost for one call here is Connectcost + (Minutfee*Minutes) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Req: To use this prog you must have Date in SYS:C A small file Ram:data will use apprx 33 Mb of Ram or maybe slightly less. Fees and costs will be saved to SYS:S/Telecost. I don't think some other things should happen but if you see smoke coming from your HD please tell me. Install: Just put it anywhere in one of your HDs. NOW LISTEN - YOU WANT TO LOWER YOUR PHONEBILL???? With this prog you can see how much you spend on phonecalls if you call within Sweden (local or Swedencalls including Internet of course). After each call you start this prog and enter how long the call was (in minutes). Most calls are usually local calls and the prog is always started in 'local fee' mode (lowcostime). If you call in highcostime or Swedencalls (longdistance) you just *** press enter *** or *** enter 0 *** on the mainscreen and in some mysterious way a second screen will appear where you can change all kinds of values - like type of phonecall and preset values for Connectcost (now 40) Local low (now 10) Local high (now 20) Sweden low (now 25) Sweden high (now 50). You can also see totals for each month you have used the prog but the prog runs through *one* year so it might be a good idea to reset all values some day like 1 January or whatever you like. Sounds easy...uh? It is... I mean normally you call local calls, just start the program, enter the time in minutes and the program saves and quits. **************************** NOTE THIS: ******************************* ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The good thing with this program is that since you must keep track of how long each phonecall lasts and then start Telecost and enter some minutes after every call is that pretty soon you will see this is a nice habit...you know like eating or something like that. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- You get it? Every time you have called you will see how much you have spent on phoning during the latest month - *** no way to escape! *** You know that little annoying sum is printed on your screen and there is a pretty good chance that this will decrease your phonebill... ...Telia (Swedish Terrorist Phone Company) don't like this program at all... ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Hu hm you might see an airplane flying there, too. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- (if you don't know it: From 7/11/97 Swedish phonecalls comes in two types only: Local calls and Sweden calls. Still you've got them happy hours in evenings, nights and weekendes...) ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Finally I must hereby state that I *DO NOT* use a dishwasher as a table. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- november 97 grok grok@canit.se (grok@karkis.canit.se)
