[v2.3] Opening screen displays InterBBS: Inactive even when it is
active. Only affects the opening screen display!
A NEW option has been added to the CFG file to control whether
or not you wish to have the door LOG callers (ON/OFF) to a
USAGE file. A separate file is created for each Node.
To make room for more functions, we have eliminated the
Blackout time and Security level.time/games options from the
Door. Be sure to delete all line in the CFG file that have
XXXXX/YYYYY and 000=00/00 in them (15 in total).
New Dictionary files!!

[v2.2] If the player saved a game in progress, it was counted as a
FULL game played and counted against the number of games
allowed to be played per day. With this version, a saved
game will NOT be counted against the allowed games per day.
A new option has been added to the CFG file to control the
number of high score entries you wish to be displayed when
the player chooses the appropriate option OR when they are
leaving the game. There is no maximum/minmum that can be
displayed OR you can use ZERO(0) to display ALL entries.
If the XXXX/YYYY entries in the CFG file were entered in
LOWERCASE, the Door would display a CFG error and return to BBS
Using a NEW entry in the CFG, you can now define the number of
months to retain in the HALL of FAME files.
Added a new option to the playing menu that allows the player
to toggle the Color On/Off.
You will have to run a conversion program called USREXPND
(included in the Door ZIP file). This program is to be run ONCE
ONLY if you are upgrading from an earlier version of the Door.
If you do not wish to run the conversion program you can just
delete the .USR file (deleting the USR file causes the game to
start over with all prior scores being lost).
Eliminated the 'ANSI not detected....' message since there are
a few communications packages out there that give off their
own type of ANSI.
If using the TRIBBS.SYS system file, the door always presented
the opening screen in black and white. Will now be presented
in color.
A first time caller to the Door was being given a black and
white screen throughout the Door. The caller would then have
to use the Door option to toggle the color on. The Door will
now default to having the color turned on and the caller will
have to use the color toggle, on the game menu, to turn it off.
The Door knows that the caller is the Sysop, if the caller is
record #1 in the BBS' user database. The BBS software passes
that record number to the door via the system file. Some BBS
software does not pass the actual record number but passes a
relative number (ie: record #1 is passed as record #0). If the
number being passsed is 0, the Door will not know it is the
Sysop calling. We will now recognize the caller as the Sysop
if their record number is 0 or 1.
As more and more BBS' use Alias', we have been asked to
provide a way for the callers to use their Alias' rather
than their LogonName. All Sunrise Doors will now have this
Sysop configurable option in the CFG file.
If participating in an InterBBS game, the number of games per
day will NOT be overridden by the security specific entries in
the CFG file.
ALIAS option NOT working properly.
If a Player logged on prior to midnight on the last day of the
month and plays past midnight on the 1st of the new month, the
monthly maintenance routine would 'kick in' during the players
logon.

[v2.1] Past problems with large values in the Door.Sys or other System
Files (Drop Files) generating an OVERLOW (Error 6) error, have
been resolved.
When the Door displays the opening screen, it asks if you want
instructions and you are forced to enter a Y or N. This was
installed to handle problems encountered when using Digiboards.
With this release you can choose whether you want to force a
y/n OR if you want to use the y/N format which allows the
player to press ENTER for the default N. You must update your
CFG file, see DOC file.

[v2.0] The Makeup days option and number of games played/remaining,
was not working properly if you left the game and came back
in to continue playing. You never lost any turns/games since
the turns/games would readjust the next day.
When playing in an InterBBS game, the BULLETINS created will
reflect the same screen as that seen when looking at the
Door's high scores (will not affect non-InterBBS games).
The Hiscore display when in the InterBBS mode, has changed.
The number of games a player has PLAYED will be shown in the
space previously occupied by the LAST DATE PLAYED. With this
change a player can now tell if the players around them have
played all their games to date or are possibly holding back.
Multiplying today's day number by the number of games allowed
per day will give the total number of PLAYS a player should
have if they are CURRENT.
Non-registered version will automatically reset the player's
scores anywhere from the 22nd thru 29th day of use
Increased the number fo games per day allowed in the
non-registered version
If playing InterBBS, the Score display will flash the player's
name to make it easier for them to spot their position in the
top scores.

[v1.9] Sysop was not being allowed to make up any days, even though
the option was turned on. Seems like this little bug has
been there for a LONG time and no one reported it. FIXED!
08/19/93
[v1.8] Score files were not being created properly and InterBBS was
dropping players from the WORDZEE.ISC file. If you have a
WORDZEE.ISC file and or a WORDZEE0.xxx file, delete them and
they will correct themselves
08/11/93
[v1.7] Number of games remaining will now be displayed on the
game board.
Added a menu option to display the High Score file at
any time during game play.
Reports of a problem related to the end of game. Would not
recognize an end of game or would not clear variables at
end of game. We believe we have fixed a problem that may
have caused this to happen.
When entering a letter or number in response to Category
the program would re-issue letters if extraneous characters
were entered. This was due to the fact that we were allowing
the player to enter more than one character. It will only
allow 1 character to be input.
