INTRODUCTION
Musical Terms Quizzer, written by Andrew Sherk, is a musical trivia
game. Users match up music terms, consisting mainly of Italian
terms, with their corresponding definitions. Points are rewarded and
are stored for display in the high score roster.
INSTALLATION
Unzip the original archive, MUSQ25.ZIP in a new directory. Run
SETUP.EXE and supply the necessary information about your bulletin
board system. Make sure you have comports, interrupts, other
settings available for configuring multiple nodes and modem
configurations. Musical Terms Quizzer supports fossil drivers,
multiple nodes, irregular comport, and IRQ settings. The setup
program creates .CTL files (control files supplying information about
the BBS and modems) and SETUP.CFG file. To try out the door game in
local mode, type MUSQUIZ /L at the DOS prompt.
After completing the setup process, run the MUSQUIZ.EXE. Command
line parameters are as follows:
/L local mode
/Nx node number
/Mx control file to use (usually corresponds to node number)
/Pyyy complete path to drop files
/Cx optional parameter to supply comport if not supplied in
dropfile.
