This is a complete, working FidoNet Point Kit for OS/2 1.1 and 1.2.
You will have to edit a couple of files with address information, and
later, as you add Echomail Conferences, more editing. A couple of batch
files here will simply this task for you.
You will also have to edit the BINKLEY.CFG file with commands for your
MODEM. I've included the commands that work on a Turbo AT with a
relatively typical non-Hayes 2400 MODEM. You will probably have to
make some changes to them for your particular hardware; don't think
that only the software has to change, though. One of the unusual
axioms of this hobby is that you can't always get around misconfigured
hardware with software. Review the switch settings (and NVRAM contents)
before jumping into the software configuration.
I've used all this software successfully for months now. Some in its
current OS/2 form; the rest under DOS until, each in its turn, it
began to run under OS/2.
So, what you do is uncompress all this stuff into a subdirectory on your
hard drive (the one you want all this stuff installed into), and invoke
POINTKT, or invoke POINTKT d:, where d: is the drive where you want it.
[The files all assume C:, and a C:\BINK as the runtime subdirectory.]
Here's the contents, and what it does, for POINTKT3.ZIP and PTKTEXE3.ZIP:
POINTKT.CMD
Insures correct directory structure, creating it if necessary. Puts
the files into their correct directories. Invokes the necessary edits
to get you on your way. Configures BinkleyTerm.
