The ON-LINE Catalog
Copyright (c) 1991,94 Andrew L. Brown
The authors make NO WARRANTIES expressed or implied as
to what this program will or will not do, and will not be liable
for any damages to your system as a result of running this software.
Furthermore, the authors are in no way responsible for any
punitive damages incured upon you or you business such as wrongful
quotes or lost business.
By using this software you agree with these terms and conditions.
Setting up The ON-LINE Catalog is fairly simple,
OLPOS.EXE Complete Point of Sale System
OLCAT.EXE BBS Door which interfaces with OLPOS data files.
You may send a run time parameter for the .CFG file when running
olcat.exe, ie olcat.exe c:\bbs\door.sys
This tells olcat where to find Door.sys (gap version)
Sample Door#.bat file:
cd\wc30\door\olcat
olcat.exe c:\wc30\wcwork\node1\door.sys
cd\wc30
If no parameter is sent, olcat.exe will DEFAULT to the path specified
in OLPOS.EXE, General Setup - File\Path Options.
Multi node operation is possible, but requires the parameter to specify
the path to door.sys i.e. : olcat.exe c:\wc30\wcwork\node2\door.sys
NOTE: THIS DOOR IS NOT YET RATED FOR SIMULTANEOUS MULTIPLE USERS!
ON A MULTI-NODE SYSTEM DO NOT ALLOW MORE THEN ONE CALLER AT
A TIME INTO THIS DOOR. WHILE IT MOST LIKELY WOULD FUNCTION
SAFELY, IT COULD CORRUPT YOUR DATA FILES OF SAVED QUOTES.
With a conversion program, The ON-LINE Catalog will run on any bbs type,
just convert the existing caller info file into DOOR.SYS (gap version)
The ON-LINE Catalog does it's own monitoring of the active comport.
No need for any watchdog type program.
Standard Comports 1-4 are supported.
