------------------------------------------------------------
If you play Global War on your favorite BBS, you should be
using GWTERM. If not, obtain a copy as soon as possible
(GWTERM is public domain).
AutoPlay is a script for TELIX. AutoPlay will execute in
the background, and will automatically run GWTERM when
version 1.5 or later of Global War is run on the remote BBS.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Installing AutoPlay is simple.
1: Put AUTOPLAY.SLC in your TELIX script directory (defined
in the Filename and Path setup options within Telix).
2: Using your favorite text editor (copy con, edlin, Page
Maker, etc), create AUTOPLAY.CFG in your Telix directory.
The first character in the file (and that is absolute first
character!) must be 1 through 9. This specifies a time
delay in seconds to allow GWTERM to load.
Suggested Settings for AUTOPLAY.CFG:
286/386 with hard drive ........ 1
286/386 with floppies only ..... 5
PC/XT with hard drive .......... 2
PC/XT with floppies only ....... 7
If you don't know or care ...... 9
This value need only be one or two seconds longer than it
takes to load GWTERM from your disk.
3: Run Telix and activate the dialing directory. Edit each
BBS you play Global War on, and enter AUTOPLAY as the
"Linked Script".
4: If you already have a script linked to a particular BBS,
you can edit the existing script file to automatically
execute the AUTOPLAY script after the original script ends.
See the SALT.DOC file that comes with Telix.
5: Make sure the latest version of GWTERM and its data files
are in the path.
When you call a BBS from your dialing directory, do not hit
ENTER, let Telix run the linked script.
You will see a greeting from AutoPlay, and may use the BBS
as normal. When you play Global War (v1.5 or later), GWTERM
will automatically activate.
AutoPlay will deactivate automatically upon carrier loss.
