<WHAT'S NEW!!>
In this new version I added 20 more puzzles to the game. I also have added
a little Hang-Man dude to the game. Everytime the user misses a letter they
will see a little man starting to develop under the noose. The title screen
has changed a little, and also I have changed a few colors in the playing
screen.
<WARRANTY>
Tri-Hang is being distributed without warranty. In no event will Bruce Farley

ative has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Bruce Farley will
not be liable for any such claim by any other party.
<SHAREWARE>
Tri-Hang is being distributed under the SHAREWARE concept. As such you may
use Tri-Hang for an evaluation period of 30 days without registering the

Tri-Hang may be freely distributed through a BBS, in it's unmodified state,
provided all files, including this file, is distributed along with it.

The registration cost is only $10.00 (US dollars). Upon receiving your reg-
istration, you will receive a letter with your registration code. This reg-
istration code is good for all future versions of this door. Fill out the

<WHAT IT IS>
Tri-Hang is a door that mocks the traditional childhood game of Hang-Man.
Your users will go through a series of internal puzzles generated by the
program. There are 120 puzzles internally to solve. The score is based on
the length of each puzzle, which means if a given puzzle were to be 12
letters in length, the user will gain 12 points for solving that puzzle.
For every time the user fails to solve a puzzle, 5 points will be deducted
from their score. Furthermore, when an user fails a puzzle, (s)he will have
to wait until the next day to continue solving the puzzles.
<FILES INCLUDED>
These files should be included with your archive:
TRIHANG.EXE =======> Executable program
TRIHANG.CFG =======> Sample Config file
TRIHANG.DOC =======> This file
HELP.ANS ==========> Help file in ANSI
REGISTER.FRM ======> Registration form
If any of these files are not included with your archive, Then chances are
that you have received a tampered archive. You may download Tri-Hang from
the Midnite Express BBS (908) 537-2488 if any of these files are not present.
<SETTING UP>
Setting up this door is fairly simple, and should not take no more than 5
minutes of your time. First off you will need to make a directory for your
copy of Tri-Hang, then unarchive this file into that directory. Then you
will need to edit TRIHANG.CFG to fit your board's needs. The config file
should be as follows:
Line 1: Door Data file
Line 2: Path to Door data file
Line 3: BBS Name (Registered Name)
Line 4: SysOp's Name
Line 5: Locked Baud Rate or 0 for none
Line 6: Registration code or 0 if not registered
Line 1: Supports many popular Door data files, PCB for PCBoard, GAP for GAP
(DOOR.SYS), SF for Spitfire, RBBS for RBBS, WC for Wildcat!, TRIBBS
for TriBBS, or WWIV for WWIV.
Line 2: The path where your Door data file is located
Line 3: Your BBS name (This will be displayed in the main menu after you
register)
Line 4: Your name (You should figure that out)
Line 5: Locked Baud rate or '0' for no locked baud rate.
Line 6: Your registration code that you got from me, or 0 if not registered.
Once you have completed editing your config file, you will need to create a
batch file for it to run. An example batch file looks like this:
TRIHANG.BAT
───────────
cd\tribbs\door\trihang
trihang trihang.cfg
cd\tribbs
board
That is it! I hope you enjoy Tri-Hang and if you have any suggestions for
future versions og Tri-Hang, please feel free to contact me on my BBS or
you may write to me.
