THE DISTRIBUTION ARCHIVE (BOOM_110.LZH)
------------------------------------------
This archive should have included the following files:
READTHIS.1ST - Important Notices.
BOOM.DOC - This is it you're reading.
BOOM.EXE - The Executable Program.
----------------------------------------
THE CONFIGURATION FILE (BINKLEY.CFG)
----------------------------------------
BOOM uses Binkley.Cfg for it's address & directory information. The
Configuration File will be searched for in the default directory first
and then in the directory specified by the Binkley Environment variable.
If you do not run BinkleyTerm (Shame on you), the following is a list
of the keywords I pick out of the Binkley.Cfg file, with it you can
create your own Binkley.Cfg file.
Required
--------
Hold <Default Outbound Directory>
NetMail <NetMail Directory>
NodeList <NodeList Directory>
Address <Zone:Net/Node.Point> ; .Point is optional.
Optional
--------
NoZones ; Turns Zone awareness off
PrivateNet <Private Network Number> ; Use if you are a point or Boss
------------------
EXIT ERRORLEVELS
------------------
ErrorLevel 1 -- Something went wrong, program abort occurs.
ErrorLevel 0 -- Successful Completion of BOOM.

CLOSING NATTER

I may have neglected something in this documentation, but the program
is pretty good at explaining itself.
If you have any problems you can't fix or questions you can't answer
then please contact me via NetMail or surface mail. I will always do
my best to support my software, but it is, by definition un-supported.
I will answer queries as time allows, please be patient when awaiting
a reply.
