SF32_33
Version 1.0
Copyright (C) by Mike Woltz, 1993
Buffalo Creek Software
SF32_33 is a SPITFIRE utility written to simplify the
conversion process of upgrading from SPITFIRE v3.2 to SPITFIRE
v3.3.
Begin by placing SF32_33.EXE in each SPITFIRE HOME directory
per node and executing it.
Messages will appear on the screen as it works to update
system and work files to SPITFIRE v3.3 format. SF32_33 will
convert SFSYSTEM.DAT, SFMCONF.DAT, SFUSERS.DAT, SFMSG.MNU,
SFFILE.MNU and the SFORDER*.* files.
In the event LAKOTA has not already been configured, then SF32_33
will ask a series of questions required to configure LAKOTA.
These questions are as follows along with the answers per
Buffalo Creek's BBS configuration:
Enter the name of your BBS: Buffalo Creek's BBS
Enter your city & state/province: West Des Moines, Iowa
Enter your BBS phone number: 515-225-8496
Enter the name of the Sysop of your BBS: Mike Woltz, Sysop
Enter QWK BBS identification name: BUFFALO
IMPORTANT NOTE: The identification name must be a valid file name.
Once this is completed, SF32_33 will display messages that
inform you what additional steps YOU MUST TAKE to complete the
conversion process. Follow these steps closely!
For your convenience, those steps are also listed here for reference.
You must overwrite your current SPITFIRE.EXE, SPITFIRE.OVR and
SPITFIRE.HLP with the version 3.3 SPITFIRE.EXE, SPITFIRE.OVR
and SPITFIRE.HLP files. Further, you must copy LAKOTA.COM,
SFPCKUSR.COM and SFPCKMSG.COM into your SPITFIRE HOME directory!
Additionally, SFMSG.MNU and SFFILE.MNU have been altered by removing
"<S>.... SPITFIRE Doors Section" and replacing with
"<L>.. LAKOTA (QWK Mail System)" in SFMSG.MNU and replacing with
"<S>............. Shuffle Files" in SFFILE.MNU. Therefore, in the
event you are using display files for menus then you will have to
alter your display files appropriately! Once you have finished those
tasks, then copy the SPITFIRE v3.3 SFBATCHD.BBS/CLR and
SFBATCHU.BBS/CLR into your DISPLAY directory!
ENJOY!!!
