Introduction
------------
DW Host is a specialized host communications program primarily
intended to support operations at the DOS level on the host. It may
be interfaced with other communications packages to implement more
complex functions. It is intended for operation with Doorway (which
allows nearly any non-graphics program to be run from remote). File
transfer operations are supported directly from DOS by DWXFER as is
mentioned in the next section. Popular applications of DW Host
include home-to-office (and vice versa) communications as well as
operations between a company home office and its remote sites.
Software configuration and file maintenance on the DW Host-equipped
host are frequent uses. DW Host is designed for operation on an IBM
PC, XT, AT, PS/2 or a close compatible connected to a Hayes-compatible
modem or a US Robotics HST.
The complete DW Host package includes the following files:
DWHost.DOC - this file
DWHost.COM - executable module
DWHost.OVR - DW Host "overlay" file
CONFIG.HLP - context-sensitive help file
HOST.BAT - optional controlling batch file
