Overview/Summary of the door
This is a little door I made to get a little "MoreInfo"
from New users logging on my board. It saves the answers
to a file, and also will send the SySop a Logon screen with
all the info.

List of function/ALT keys
The list of function keys is basically this:
F3 - Printer toggle
F4 - Page bell toggle
F7 - Caller alarm toggle
F8 - Return caller to board
F10 - Start sysop chat
ESC - Enter sysop chat
Command Line Options
--------------------
LOCKED:xxxxx - Forces Door to lock the modem at the
speed given.
LOCAL - Forces Door to run in local mode. This
is really meant for testing purposes, but it
still reads the configuration file, but doesn't
read the bbs interface file.
NETWORK - Forces file sharing to be active incase you
are using something other than SHARE to manage
file locking.
IRQ=n - Lets you change the IRQ used for the com port
specified in the bbs interface file.
(See below for more information)
ADDR=&Hnnnn - Lets you change the address used for the com
port specified in the bbs interface file.
(See below for more information)
PS2 - Forces the PS/2 IRQs and addresses if a PS/2
isn't detected (Normally it is, but you can't
always tell!)
RBBS - Forces Door into RBBS/QBBS mode
WILDCAT - Forces Door into Wildcat 2.0 mode
DOORSYS - Forces Door into 31-Line DOOR.SYS mode
PCB121 - Forces Door into PCBoard 11.8/12.x mode
with COM 1 active
PCB122 - Forces Door into PCBoard 11.8/12.x mode
with COM 2 active
PCB14 - (DEFAULT) Forces Door into PCBoard 14.x
mode
When you use the IRQ or the ADDR option, you must include the other.
You can't use just the IRQ and not the ADDR, and you can't use just
the ADDR and not the IRQ. Here's a chart with the STANDARD IRQs
and addresses for the PS/2s and IBM PCs:
Non PS/2
Com port IRQ Address
1 4 &H3F8
2 3 &H2F8
3 4 &H3E8
4 3 &H2E8
5-8 4 &H3F8
PS/2
Com port IRQ Address
1 4 &H3F8
2 3 &H2F8
3 3 &H3220
4 3 &H3228
5 3 &H4220
6 3 &H4228
7 3 &H5220
8 3 &H5228
Troubleshooting
Like if error number 53 (File not found)
occurs, then search your configuration file for a misspelled filename
or a wrong path. If error 61 (Disk full) occurs, free up disk space.
If you get a Overflow at adress blah blah blah, lock your comprt and
that should do it. Also if you use a 31 line DOOR.SYS, use the DOORSYS
switch on the command line.
Some errors can't be solved, and you could list those and send them
to my bulletin board for more help.
