The TriBBS Bulletin Board System 105
---------------------------------------------------------------------
z,Zmodem (DSZ),sz.bat,rz.bat,y,n
m,MPt (Puma),smpt.bat,rmpt.bat,y,n
h,HS/Link,hss.bat,hsr.bat,y,n
---------------------------------------------------------------------
This example file replaces TriBBS's internal Zmodem protocol with DSZ
and adds the very speedy MPt (formerly Puma) and the speedy,
bidirectional protocol HS/Link to the board's list of protocols. Both
protocols support batch downloads and neither is an error correcting
protocol.
Send Batch Files
----------------
When TriBBS calls a send batch file, it passes the following three
parameters to the batch file:
port number baud rate filename or EBATCH.DAT
The "port number" and "baud rate" parameters are pretty self
explanatory. The third parameter TriBBS passes to the batch file
requires a little further explanation. If the protocol, doesn't
support batch downloads, TriBBS only passes a single "filename" to the
protocol. Otherwise, TriBBS creates a file called "EBATCH.DAT" and
passes the name of the file to the protocol's batch file.
"EBATCH.DAT" is simply a line-by-line listing of the files in the
batch download.
The following is an example of a DSZ send batch file called SZ.BAT:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
dsz port %1 sz -m @c:%3
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Note that the above batch file enables MobyTurbo transfers.
The following is an example of a MPt send batch file called SMPT.BAT:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
mpt p%1 s @%3
