COUNTER CUSTOMIZATION

It's possible to edit your "counter.pl" script to accommodate different digit 
images. Many of the counter digits available (and on display) at Waidsoft
(http://home.waidsoft.com/wsnumbers/) are installed on our server under 
"/usr/local/digits".

You can modify this line in "counter.pl" to change your counter style:

$digit_dir = "/usr/local/digits/C";

Substitute the "C" in the above line with any of the following:

A, B, C, D, bajbp, banco, banco_glacier, bancored, bluewhite, craig_blue, 
craig_stony, crest, enya_g, enya_plaid, enya_r, enya_ruby, hanger, 
iron, ironwood, kosher, orngwhite, ,scoreboard, slasherc

It's also possible to download and use your own set of custom counter digits. 
Within each of the above "digits" directories are ten gif files that are named 
"0.gif", "1.gif", "2.gif", and so on. If you like, you can download alternate 
GIF images for your counter. You may have to rename any digit images that you 
download so that they follow the format listed above. Change the "$digit_dir" 
setting so that it points to a local subdirectory of your account, like this 
example for the user "joe":

$digit_dir = "/users/joe/counter/digits";
   

13)  Optional Settings

To set the width and height of the counter, you'll need to edit these
lines in your counter.pl file 

   $width = "xx";
   $height = "xx";

Where there is an "xx" you will need to put the size you want (in 
pixels). Default settings for this are 16 width and 20 height.

To specify whether you want a frame on your counter, you'll need
to set the width of the border. If you do have a border, you can also 
specify what color you want for your border:

   $frame_width = "x";
   $frame_color = "x,x,x";

In the frame_width setting, you will need to substitute the  "x" with 
size of the frame you want (in pixels). 8 is the default and to have 
no frame at all put 0.  If you want a frame, and want some color 
besides a black frame you'll need to replace the x,x,x with the color 
you want in hexidecimal code in this order: red, green, blue. The 
default for the frame color is 0,0,0 which is black.

More optional settings are listed in the README file. If you wish to
