INSTALLING HS/LINK EXTERNAL PROTOCOL
IN Auntie 5.12
Installing HS/LINK in Auntie is simplicity in itself. You must be
at version 5.12 which is currently still in beta, but all
registered Auntie owners can get the latest beta from the home base
BBS, Wes Meier's WC-BBS. With Auntie you simply run the CONFIG
program and under the protocols you simply toggle support HS/LINK
to true. The below is a sample of that screen.
╓[CONFIG: Protocols (Hit Alt-M to Toggle Mouse ON)]────────────────────────────╖
║ ║
║ Kermit is Supported .................................................. FALSE ║
║ JMODEM is Supported ................................................... TRUE ║
║ YMODEM-G May be Selected by NON-Error Checking Callers ............... FALSE ║
║ MPT is Supported ..................................................... FALSE ║
║ HSLink is Supported ................................................... TRUE ║
║ Save Changes and End (*) ║
║ End Without Saving Changes (Esc) ║
║ Main Menu ║
║ ║
╙──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────╜
Next make sure that the HSLINK.EXE is in your path. The defaults
for HS/LINK are found in the AUNTEXT file at line 1277. If you
find you need the slow handshake with your drive you can either add
that in that line or make a HSLINK.CFG file with the defaults you
want to use. If you do change anything in the AUNTEXT file you
must run MAKANTXT.exe again to regenerate the AUNTEXT.RND file that
the system uses while running.
Once you finish just run AUNTVERF to assure that you have
everything set up right which will also make sure that HSLINK.EXE
is in your path. Auntie uses the DSZ.LOG to get the stats when
finished with file transfers. Bidirectional transfers run great
with Auntie. Even while the user is downloading his/her QWK mail
packet they can send up a file and Auntie handles it all just fine.
That's all there is to it, but as always, make sure to read the
docs for HS/LINK and Auntie.
Good luck!
