- ====================================================================
- QUICK START - SETTING UP SLICK
-
- There are several Mini Terminal Programs around but only one
- Slick! Why use Slick?. FIRST, Slick is entirely self contained and
- self starting for all Hayes Compatible Modems using AT commands.
- This means there are NO configured files or other data files to
- manage. SECOND, Slick is under 95K. This means you can run it
- from a system with only ONE FLOPPY and limited RAM. (and I know
- there are a lot of you guys out there). Slick is functional with
- any IBM or Clone CPU running PC/MS-DOS 3.3 or better. Using a
- standard 360k floppy with the operating system installed you are
- still left with over 200k for download space! THIRD, SLICK is
- the only affordable terminal on the market that really delivers
- the power features that new operators want. And, It works right
- out the box with no configure files to hassle with (other than
- setting new defaults). PLUS, if wish to operate off a Hard Drive,
- SLICK can be called via a DOS Path statement from ANY location in
- your directories.
-
- ====================================================================
- SLICK by DEFAULT:
-
- Slick comes preset for COM1, IRQ4, N81, 1200 baud. If this port
- setting is CORRECT for your PC, SLICK will initialize your modem by
- sending an ATZ (clear modem defaults) and a generic modem string.
- If you see ATZ followed by OK appear on your screen, probability
- is your port address is valid for the default of COM1 (3F8) IRQ4.
- If the modem string appears next followed by OK, you may still
- need to ADD some special switches that are necessary for your
- particular modem. On the other hand, if ERROR appears after SLICK
- attempts to send the string, you must determine what switch in the
- string is not compatible with your modem. This can be done by
- reading your manual or sending each switch separately at the
- terminal prompt looking for an OK reply if valid. Example: Let's
- assume the string is "ATDTM1V4&D2S7=45" First, type ATDT, then
- look for an OK. Next, type ATM1, ATV4 etc. etc. until you hit
- the one or ones that reply with error. ANY one bad switch will
- invalidate the entire string. A common question is "everything
- seems to be working ok but the modem wont hang up the line after a
- good connect, Why?" Some modems depend 100% on software control of
- important functions like carrier and data state. Usually, &D1 added
- to the string will allow the modem to hang up if it cannot be be set
- by dip or pin switches on the modem itself.
-
- After the opening screen you should see the following responses
- from the modem indicating all is OK and ready to operate.
-
- ATZ
- OK
- ATS0=1&C1&D2V1X4S2=128S7-45S11=70 (or similar, [may vary])
- OK
-
- Please Note you can change the Initial Command String that
- comes pre- installed: (ATM1S12=0S11=70V1X4S2=128S0=2), to meet
- your particular requirements. This String MUST however reside
- in the Alt-0 macro as SLICK looks for it there on boot up. You
- can also place a Hayse dial command in the Alt-0 macro and SLICK
- will AUTOMATICALLY dial that number first on BOOTUP. This might
- be nice for a BBS you call OFTEN.
-
- Example: ATM1S12=0S11=70V1X4DT283-9785
- ^--------^
- ====================================================================
- PROBLEMS:
-
- If nothing at all appears on your screen, (after the LoGo
- disappears and you hear the initialization beep) the fault is
- likely that SLICK's default port setting (COM1) is incorrect for
- your computer/modem setup. You will need to set another COM port.
- The COM menu is selected by hitting Alt N (while still in regular
- terminal mode) then selecting port 2, 3 or 4 depending on your
- available ports. To test the new port selection, simply type ATZ
- at the terminal prompt looking for both the letters to be echoed
- on the screen along with an OK (or "0") reply from the modem. Once
- you have the correct port selected you will want to save it into
- the EXE module so it will remain the default next time you run
- SLICK. This is done via the default menu brought up with the Alt Z
- key combination. One inside the defaults menu, use Alt P to write
- the new port into EXE module. On a 4.77 mhz floppy only system,
- this may take 10-20 seconds. On hard drives with fast processors,
- less than a second. You may also wish to change the baud rate,
- parity, data & stopbit and or modem string by this same general
- method. You may also set the UpLoad and DnLoad disk/directory
- locations and the default editor for SLICK's dialing directory.
- SLICK comes with SLICKED which is pre defined as the default
- editor. Any other favorite text editor will work also. The Alt-Z
- (Defaults) Menu is also used to change the hot key macros. (Hit F5
- to see whats there now.)
-
- ====================================================================
- SLICK HAS ZMODEM:
-
- Slick is simple, very powerful, and easy to use! Plus it has
- everything you basically need to enjoy Telecommunication. Slick
- Version 4.8 and up NO LONGER requires the exclusive^ use of Omen's
- DSZ engine to enable (Z)modem protocol. SLICK features internal
- Zmodem protocol with Auto Sensing. (You need only instruct the
- host to begin the Zmodem transfer, SLICK does the rest!). A new
- Monitor Mode has been added (V5.4) via Ctrl Home to allow display of
- all raw characters without filtering. This is a very useful
- diagnostic and advanced function for investigating raw data
- appearing at the port. Additionally, a new Literal insert mode has
- been added to the macro keys to facilitate use of control codes,
- graphic characters and ANSI. In response to numerous request,
- PARITY/DATA/STOPBIT selection can now be saved (V5.1up) as a permanent
- runtime default along with port and baud rate. Several new baud
- rates (4800,9600,19200) have been added to the menu along with
- numerous cosmetic changes and embellishments including a few fixes
- to a number of minor but annoying soft bugs. SLICK is a Interrupt
- driven (on receive only) terminal that supports the four standard
- DOS BIOS addresses of 3F8, 2F8, 3E8 and 2E8 respectively for COM1
- thru 4. If you are using OS/2 or any other system that addresses
- COM3 thru 8 at 3220h thru 5228, a special version of SLICK/OS2 is
- available for those circumstances. Please call our office. (SLICK
- pairs IRQ4 w/COM1&3 and IRQ3 w/COM2&4 in the standard version).
-
- ^Today, 99% of all BBS's are providing Zmodem file transfers
- because of the superior performance it has over X and Ymodem.
- Because many of our users are running laptops, we elected to
- continue providing X and Ymodem via the external DSZ protocol
- engine, thus keeping the size of SLICK's executable file to a
- minimum. Therefore, for those of you who like SLICK and still must
- have X and Ymodem, you must register with Omen to get an unlocked
- (ability to pass parameter) version of DSZ. Zmodem has become the
- de facto standard on almost all Bulletin Boards. But, if X and
- Ymodem are still needed, SLICK can still pass parameters to
- Omen's DSZ engine (for those protocols) if DSZ is in the DOS path.
-
- For PROPER operation of DSZ or any external utilities, it is
- necessary to have a DOS PATH to where you have located SLICK AND
- these utilities. Example: Suppose you have SLICK and SLICKED in a
- directory off the root of your "C" drive called MODEM [i.e.
- C:\MODEM]. You must then add MODEM to your PATH statement in your
- AUTOEXEC.BAT file as SET PATH=C:\MODEM etc etc. To confirm after
- re-booting, that your path is properly set, type SET at the DOS
- prompt. If you are operating off a floppy drive, make sure you
- have a system disk with COMMAND.COM on the floppy along with
- SLICK.EXE.
-
- ====================================================================
- REDISPLAY BUFFER:
-
- SLICK has some very nice utilities for making life easy. The Alt-T
- (redisplay screen buffer) is an example. This feature keeps the last
- eight pages of text in memory for immediate redisplay. With the use
- of Pg Up/Dn up/dn arrow, home and end, navigating is a snap. This is
- particularly useful when you forgot the spelling of that interesting
- file you want to download - just hit Alt T to go back in time! You
- also can take a snapshot of the screen (Alt G) or save the present
- content of the buffer to the standard log capture file. (Alt L)
-
- ====================================================================
- SPECIAL MACROS:
-
- The F10 macro can be programmed to run your favorite utility by
- just a key stroke. F8 loads and runs SLICKED, the default dial
- directory editor. (Remember, you and reset this to run your own
- favorite editor).
-
- ====================================================================
- DOORWAY & MONITOR MODE:
-
- When using the DoorWay (Alt=) or Monitor mode (CtrlHome), no other
- hot keys are active! You may exit either mode by hitting the same
- hot key again to regain use of SLICK hot keys. While in DoorWay
- mode, any extended keys that are struck will result in SLICK
- sending a NUL preceding the keys actual scancode to facilitate
- correct interpretation of Function and Extended keys on host end.
-
- ====================================================================
- HOST MODE:
-
- SLICK V5.4 now provides as a perk to its registered users an entirely
- new HOST Mode. This feature (like a mini BBS) is very useful and much
- easier than most to learn to operate. First, here are the available
- functions. NOTE: For testing purposes, you can activate SLICK's Host
- Mode (without a connect) via local mode toggle Alt F1. This will
- disable the carrier detection that would normally cause the Host
- Mode to disengage. You could also send the macro in Alt 9 but Host
- Mode would assume a connect, and, not finding a carrier, dis engage
- after a few attempts at loading.
-
-
- ****** SLICK Host Menu ******
- (1) Download a File.
- (2) Drop to Operating System.
- (3) Page the SYSOP!
- (4) Read Host Messages.
- (5) Send Host Messages.
- (6) Shut down Host Mode.
- (7) Exit/Hang up!
-
-
- (1) This function allows you to download a file. It prompts you
- for a filename and, if found, promptly transmits it to you
- via Zmodem. Practically all automatic!
-
- (2) This function gives you the DOS prompt as if you were sitting
- in front of your host system. DOORWAY its NOT, but at least
- you can copy, move and delete files. You can also use DOS's
- TYPE command to read any ascii text files on your system. You
- may even run some applications that do not require user input.
- Its primary job is to copy a file to SLICK's default upload
- directory for transmission (if what you want is not there
- already). To return to the Host Menu, you only need type
- EXIT at the DOS prompt. This feature requires a special
- batch file, called DROPDOS.BAT (supplied) that takes advantage
- of DOS's ability to redirect the CON output to the serial
- port during the drop. Its covered in more detail down below.
-
- (3) Should it be necessary to get the attention of the System
- Operator, selection 3 will cause the host to beep once every
- second for twenty seconds. The SYSOP (host end) need only hit
- any key to trigger the chat operation otherwise it will time
- out and return the user (remote) back to the main menu. As with
- the Enter Mail function, a forward slash </> will exit chat
- (can be initiated by either end) when used as the FIRST entry
- on a new line.
-
- (4) This is a convient way to get messages or general bulletin info
- to anyone with access to the host system. It will display 23 lines
- of text and then wait for a user key stroke to display the next
- 23. The first time this selection is called, if the bulletin file,
- SLICK.BUL is not found, it will be created with a short header
- indicating there are no bulletins as of yet. SLICK.BUL, like
- all text files generated by SLICK terminal, may be edited with
- any standard ascii editor, including SLICKED.EXE (provided).
-
- (5) This option allows a user to post a message on the system. The
- message will be appended to the end of the existing bulletin file
- (SLICK.BUL). It is a bare bones posting system with no means of
- discriminating who has access to what mail. Line length is limited
- to 73 characters. A new line is started by hitting the <Cr> or
- Enter key. A message is saved or ended by hitting the forward
- slant key </> (usually below the question <?> mark key.
-
- (6) This is equivalent to using Alt-X at the terminal. It terminates
- SLICK, taking it off line, and returning control back to the
- operating system.
-
- (7) This forces Host Mode to drop the line (hang up) and await the
- next caller.
-
- Before you can access the Host Mode via a remote terminal, the
- following things must be accomplished. First, the modem auto answer
- command, S0 must be installed in Macro Alt-0 with the desired ring
- number, i.e. the number of rings to wait before connecting. EXAMP:
- ATS0=3----------------ETC. This will cause the modem to answer (in
- this example) after the third ring. Next, you must set your Host
- access key in macro Alt-9. It MUST begin with at least one or more
- asterisks (*) followed by no more than five characters. EXAMP:
- *!$@ This Host Key does several important jobs. It provides a
- method to activate the Host mode remotely, and, since the user must
- know it in advance, a certain amount of security. Ideally, you
- would transmit the Host key (after the CONNECT message) on your
- remote SLICK terminal by using the same Alt-9 Macro. This will
- trigger the Host Mode into action (at the HOST site) and you will
- soon be asked for your name. The name is only required for logging
- purposes and is not critical. (User names are logged to a file
- created and called SLICK.USR). You could spell your name
- differently each time, as no checks are made against it. Next the
- Host will ask for a password. This is VERY critical. Case MUST be
- observed and can be mixed. The very first time you use Host Mode,
- SLICK will create a file called SLICK.PWD and install the first
- generic password HOSTSYSOP which you must type (in CAPITOLS) to gain
- access. Its up to you to create additional passwords and install
- them via any ascii editor such as SLICKED provided with this
- package. If the password was invalid compared to those contained in
- SLICK.PWD, the Host informs the login and disconnects. Otherwise,
- you are welcomed to the main menu. It's just that EASY.
-
-
- DROPDOS.BAT Batch file must reside in same directory as SLICK
-
- @ECHO OFF Line 1 (not required, just eliminates scrn echo at host)
- CTTY COM1: Line 2 (change to reflect the port [COM?] you are using)
- C:\COMMAND.COM Line 3 (path to DOS file **VERY IMPORTANT**
- CTTY CON Line 4 (undoes line 2 returning screen/kybd to CONsole)
-
-
- NOTE: Most versions of DOS that I have encountered fail to install
- the port default addresses of 3E8 and 2E8 in BIOS at Seg 0040
- Off 0004 and 0006. Ordinarily this would prevent DROPDOS.BAT
- from working on COM3 or COM4 (i.e. CTTY COM3: or CTTY COM4:)
- even if SLICK (or any terminal using direct hardware
- addressing) works ok. I overcome this limitation by allowing
- SLICK to poke the required addresses into BIOS memory if they
- are not present. This is necessary because the CTTY
- redirection command looks there for where to go with re
- directed output. SLICK eh?
-
- ====================================================================
- TIME STAMP:
-
- A feature has been added that will record all your CONNECT time
- including place and number called. This feature is toggled by the
- Alt K key combination while in terminal mode. It writes to a standard
- ASCII text file called SLICK.TYM. There are two line written for each
- connect. The first line tells who you called, the phone number used,
- and the date and time the connect was made. The second line contains
- the elapsed time of the call on the line above it. EXAMP BELOW:
-
- CONNECT: Telenet Data, Ph# ATDT*70,524-4094 on 7/30/92 at 11:02p
- ON LINE time for call was: 0hr,12min, 25sec
-
- This feature requires that you to use the built in dialing
- directory to pick and initiate a call and will not work by manual
- number entries while in terminal mode.
-
- This feature is toggled on and off by use of Alt-K while in normal
- terminal mode. The first time it is used, the file SLICK.TYM will
- be created in SLICK's home directory.
-
- ====================================================================
- ALT Z DEFAULTS MENU
-
- The Alt-Z key brings up this "Default" Menu screen, wherein you have
- many options, including the ability to reset the 10 definable macro
- keys. [Alt-1 thru Alt-0].
