You may customize your counter by adding these switch options. Your customized counter line would look something like this:
df=YourUserName.dat
DF is the datafile to store the count in. You can use df=random to display a random number!
ft=X
Allows you to specify the frame thickness. You can wrap the counter in
an ornamental frame of X pixels
thick. Use 0 for no frame. Values over 5 make a nice 3-D effect.
frgb=0;0;0
Specifies the color of the frame in RGB (red/green/blue)
format. Each color component, R, G, and B is specified as a
value between 0 and 255. If you use ft= without a frgb=
param, the default color is used.
If you specify a frgb= without a ft=, then the frame
thickness defaults to 5. All the examples show ft=5.
The color can be specified as hex string or a name.
Do not use a # before the hex string as Netscape.
For example, if you want to specify white in hex, you do
frgb=ffffff.
tr=B
Transparency On/Off.
You can specify if your counter image will have a transparent
color with the Boolean B. So tr=Y means there will be a
transparent color; and tr=N means there will not. It does not
matter if the GIF files used for the digits are "transparent";
you must specify explicitly which color to
make transparent. If you specify a trgb=, then you do not need
to specify tr=Y. Valid values for B are Y, N, T, F, 1, or 0.
md=6
Max Digits.
Defines maximum number of digits to display. Any value between
5 and 10 inclusive are permitted. Padding with leading zeros is
automatically done for you; longer counts are truncated to the
given X.
pad=B
Padding with 0's.
Turn padding on/off in conjunction with md= setting. Valid
values for the Boolean parameter B are Y, N, T, F, 1, or 0.
dd=A
Digit Directory.
Denotes directory of a specific styles of digits.
They are kept at the directories A,B,C,
D, E, etc....
Here are some of the styles:
Digit style A
Digit style B
Digit style C
Digit style D
Digit style E
sh=B
Show digits.
Used to turn display of digits on or off according to the
Boolean B. When sh=T, counter will be displayed and incremented,
this is the default behavior.
If sh=F no digits will show, but the
counter will still increment; instead of digits a transparent
1x1 GIF is displayed. Valid values for the Boolean parameter B
are Y, N, T, F, 1, or 0.
incr=B
Increment Count.
Makes it possible to display the current count without
incrementing the count. This can be used to examine the count
for reporting or other purposes without adding to the count.
Valid values for the Boolean parameter B are Y, N, T, F, 1, or 0.
lit=X
Display literal.
Makes it possible to display a given, predetermined value.
Valid values for the string X are digits.
negate=B
Negate the color.
Makes it possible to negate the color of the counter digits.
Note that the Frame is exempted from negating.
Valid values for the Boolean parameter B are Y, N, T, F, 1, or 0.
degrees=X
Rotate X degrees.
Makes it possible to rotate the counter image X degree. The
possible values of X is 90, 180, 270 and 360. Note 360 is
meaningless as the counter will come back to the original 0
degree.
rotate=B
Rotate On/Off.
The Boolean value B turns on or off rotating. If you use
degrees= settting, rotate is not needed.
Valid values for the Boolean parameter B are Y, N, T, F, 1, or 0.
