    Search the Wiki for the term "tickit".

    Synchronet has file processing built in, with the 'tickit' utility.

    Not so much a document, but there's a wiki entry regarding Tickit - https://wiki.synchro.net/module:tickit

    a TIC file processor for Synchronet. Sign up for the file echoes, create corresponding file areas on your BBS, create a tickit.ini file and link
    your uplink and file echoes to the corresponding file areas.

    Saw that. Just wish I could get it to run under Server 2025 Datacenter.

    I assume that is some form of Windows (I don't go near that stuff), but
    seems like it (Synchronet) would run on it. Many other Windows versions
    work fine, anyway.

    beside the tickit tool itself that is synchronets tic file processor, you might want to take a look at

    jsexec tickitcfg

    i like gui config tools and this is one for tickit. https://wiki.synchro.net/module:tickitcfg

    That's not a GUI tool; it uses a text user interface..?
