CONFIG file

Explanation
  CONFIG is a standard ASCII text file that allows an author to configure a
  program to accommodate several variables, some highly technical, but
  others quite simple. You must have a CONFIG file so that DRIVER knows
  what LSN file to access. Use the DOS text file function of your word
  processor (Ctrl-F5 in WordPerfect) to create an ASCII file. A standard
  CONFIG file looks like the column on the left:

  Contents         Line #      What it does
  

     0           1     [videodisc player type]
     1           2     [control for videodisc player]
     0           3     [debug flag]
     1           4     [switch for computer/videodisc]
     1           5     [color flag]
     1           6     [student information flag]
     1           7     [border ON/OFF]
     0           8     [for future expansion]
     0           9     [for future expansion]
     0           10       [for future expansion]
     0           11       [for future expansion]
     path:file   12       [initial unit filename]
     EXTRAONE    13       [string for ##]
     EXTRATWO    14       [string for $$]
     DATE        15       [string for ^^ (or current date)]
     \              16    [path for student files]
     0              17    [for future expansion]
     0              18    [for future expansion]
     3              19    [graphics display (CGA, EGA. VGA]
     0              20    [for future expansion]

  Here are the line numbers followed by the coding for the list of items
  which the CONFIG file sets:

   1 videodisc player type:
     0 = CBT only
     1 = Sony LDP 1000
     2 = Pioneer 4000
     3 = Pioneer 8210
     4 = Sony LDP 2000

   2 control port: To send information to the videodisc player. Contains
     a 1 or a 2, for LPT1:, LPT2:, COM1: or COM2:. 

   3 debug flag:
     0 = all frame numbers off;
     1 = text frame numbers only on (enables ALT 208)
     2 = video frame numbers only on;
     3 = text and video frame numbers on (ALT 208 is enabled).

   4 switch port: To switch between RGB, NTSC and superimposed mode
     (usually the number of an LPT: port). Other values here might be used
     with hardware switching devices that allow video overlay, etc. Since
     changes in available hardware occur frequently, contact InterDigital to
     configure DRIVER and the CONFIG files to your videodisc/CD ROM
     interface specifications.

   5 color flag: Allows you to force text to be white on black (if used
     with an amber or green monitor on a color adapter). DRIVER also will
     obey mode commands, i.e., if you've typed mode bw80 in DOS, the
     text will be forced to black and white despite the color flag setting.
     0 = black/white monitor on color card
     1 = every other combination

   6 student information flag:
     0 means no student file will be created
     1 means a student file will be created

   7 border flag:
     0 = no border with color card (black border)
     1 = border is same color as text background

   9 spare:  for future use
  10 spare:  for future use
  11 spare:  for future use

  12 lesson name: Name of the first LSN/CNT file to be accessed (LSN/CNT
     extension should not be included. The name can include a full path
     name, up to 65 characters, total.)

  13 extraone:  Any author or student input. Authors enter this into the
     CONFIG file, but for student input, use "extraone" in place of a
     destination page. [~EXTRAONE] 

  14 extratwo:  Same as extraone, but use "extratwo" in place of
     destination page [~extraone].

  15 string three: Can be any other string (word or phrase) that is
     desirable to change in the CONFIG file. If you put the word DATE
     here, it will become the current date when the student signs in.

  16 student file path:  Drive and pathname where student files are
     stored. Even if all files are on the same drive and path as the program
     files, the \ must be included.

  17 spare: For future expansion  
  18 spare: For future expansion 

  19 monitor: Set this to the lowest level monitor required to display your
     graphic images. If the monitor in use cannot display that type of
     graphic, the program will skip automatically to the next page in the
     program. If the program uses PCX graphics and may be used on a VGA
     monitor, set the flag to 3.

        0 = monochrome
        1 = CGA     320 x 200 or 640 x 200 (B\W only)
        2 = EGA     640 x 350
        3 = VGA     640 x 480

  20 spare: For future expansion
