What is it?
OPENWIDE.PPE is a PCBoard 15.1 PPE utility that will replace your old, and
now obsolete OPEN or DOOR commands. It is a beautifully designed ANSI imple-
mentation of the classic menu bar user interface. This is the 'WIDE' version
which has support for up to 26 doors or PPE's. It also has description sup-
port. Callers use their CURSOR movement keys (ARROW keys) to move the
highlighted selection, pressing enter to launch the application.
File in archive?
You should have received the following files in this archive:
OPENWIDE.PPE The executable PPE
OPENWIDE.DOC This file you are reading now
MAIN.CFG A sample configuration file
FILE_ID.DIZ PCBoard @ code DIZ file.
Installation:
You can install this PPE independantly of your commands or you can replace
your 'OPEN' or 'DOOR' commands by editing your CMD.LST file for the par-
ticular conferences that you want to run it from. The following is a sample
entry in a hypothetical CMD.LST file:
OPEN 50 C:\PCB\PPE\WIDE\OPENWIDE.PPE MAIN.CFG
*Notice MAIN.CFG. This is the configuration file which you wish to use for
this CMD.LST file or the conferences that access it. You can name the con-
figuration files any name. I chose MAIN.CFG because it is used for my main
board conference. My online games conference uses GAMES.CFG. It's up to you.
The configuration files *MUST* be included on this CMD.LST line. They must
also be present in the same directory as the PPE file.
Configuration file parameters:
1st line: Name of DOOR or PPE (8 chars or less)
2nd line: Description of DOOR or PPE (23 chars or less)
Because PCBoard has reserved the UP cursor key for scrollback, sysops using
OPENWIDE.PPE locally can use the alternate UP key, the HOME key.
If you like this PPE, you are encouraged to register it. In doing so, you
may receive the registered version which removes the UNREGISTERED notice.
Registration is $15.00 + Shipping & Handling. (exclude S+H if you wish to
download your registered files from TABBS, numbers listed above)
