Sending Tokens on a PC
by The Knight

My knowledge of tokens is very accurate, and below I will describe some of the most known ways to token, and the easiest.

America Online communicates through packets of information called 'tokens'. Every token belongs to its own family of tokens, and given its own name.

Each token has two ascii values, examples:

Token
Function Family
aa
process certificate info Register
f1
request object retriever
f7
Request a form retriever
Aa
chat msg/fdo91 - Rm/Aud Roomer
AA
chat message (Rm/Aud) Roomer

Sending tokens with: America Online 3.0 for Windows
Requirements: Visual Publisher Designer (try to get version 050a)

Below is an FDO script that will send the token of your choice, just goto the menu located on your AOL client labeled "Designer". Then click New Form, now copy the text below and paste it onto the form, then hit Ctrl + D (which will preview the form and execute the code). f1 is the token 32-3808 is the token data.

man_start_object
act_replace_select_action
<
uni_start_stream
sm_m_send_token_arg <"f1", 32-3808>
uni_end_stream
>
mat_font_sis
mat_bool_default
man_end_object

Get it? Good, you can also send f1 tokens with the Master AOL, just goto the star menu, click "Invoke Database Record...", then all you do is enter the number like so 32-3808.

Sending tokens with: America Online 4.0/5.0 for Windows 95
Requirements: Visual Publisher Designer

This is easy as well, open notepad, put the following text in it (Note: f1 is the token, 32-3808 is the token data)

uni_start_stream
sm_m_send_token_arg <"f1", 32-3808>
uni_end_stream

Then click save.

Now goto the star menu on your AOL 4/5 client, goto Play Text Stream, and select the file you saved the FDO into, and click OK, it will execute the atom commands in that file.
