-
-
- INFODOOR is NOT public domain software. This program was written for and
- given to God. It is provided for use only by christian sysops of christian
- BBS's. Its primary purpose is for the advancement of the Kingdom of God and
- the dissemination of the information about His glorious Son. Violations are
- between you and the Living God. This program is free to registered users of
- of the OmegaComm BBS system. If you are not running OmegaComm and plan to use
- it, then a suggested tax deductible donation of $10.00 or more should be made
- to either your local church or:
-
- Christian Research Institute
- P.O. Box 500
- San Juan Capistrano, CA 92693
-
- The Christian Research Institute has had nothing to do with the development
- or dissemination of this program.
-
- WHAT'S NEW: Version 1.0 has refined async i/o routines. It still has
- its own built in async i/o, but will use as fossil driver if present.
- It will handle 300-38400 baud including 4800, 7200, 14400, and 16800.
- The ansi handling routines have also been updated.
-
- ***************************************************************************
- ***************************************************************************
-
- This program can be used to read any series of *'ANS' (ansi files) and
- *'ASC' (ascii files). You can use Thedraw or something similar to create
- the *.ANS and *.ASC files. The files must contain a standard front for
- their name like STEP (CAN BE NO LONGER THAN FIVE CHARACTERS). You can
- have a series of up to 255 files in the series. For instance, you would
- have STEP1.ANS through STEP255.ANS and STEP1.ASC through STEP255.ASC.
- This program can be used STAND ALONE or can also be used as a door program
- for a BBS system. If you are not using it as a BBS system, make sure the
- second line in the DOOR.SYS file is a '0'. The command line for this
- program is:
-
- INFODOOR [NUMBER OF FILES] [FRONT END OF NAME]
-
- For example:
-
- INFORDOOR 8 STEP
-
- The Salvation (SAVE) series is supplied for your reference and as an
- example.
-
- INFODOOR version 1.0 has its own built in async input/output unit
- so it does NOT use a doors program like Doorway.Exe. The built in async
- i/o does not interfere with a fossil or the bbs's own internal async since
- it saves and restores the original vectors and modem data. It also does
- not reset the baud rate so it should work fine with locked ports. Also,
- this new async input/output system is fossil aware. If a fossil driver is
- present, it will use the fossil. If no fossil is present, it will use its
- own async i/o procedures.
-
- INFODOOR will read the DOOR.SYS* file if available and if not, it will
- read a Dorinfo.def* file.
-
- DOOR.SYS IS THE SAME AS THE ONE READ BY DOORWAY.EXE
- DORINFO.DEF IS RBBS COMPATIBLE
-
- NOTE: USE DOORMASTER TO CONVERT DORINFO.DEF TO YOUR SYSTEM FORMAT
-
- * Both files are created by OmegaComm each time a door is executed.
