┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ ░░░░░ │ Setting up TurboEDIT with Synchronet BBS │ ░░░░░ │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
This is just meant to be an example of how to successfully setup
TurboEDIT -- It may or may not be the best way, but it DOES work.
Thanks to Chris Chastain (1:3636/16) for providing his Synchronet Setup
for TurboEDIT.
Here's the information Chris sent us:
Install the TurboEDIT files in a directory of your choice, Chris used
C:\SBBS\EXEC\TURBOED, so this is the directory we'll be using for our
examples. If you change it, adjust your setup accordingly.
Next, run TESETUP.EXE and configure TurboEDIT to your preferences.
The TE.BAT that is included in the archive is not required for use with
Synchronet. It may be deleted.
In Synchronet Config under External Programs | External Editors, insert
a new item. Chris used "TURBOED", so that's the name we'll be using.

The %! simply expands to your exec directory (in Chris' case, it was
C:\SBBS\EXEC\TURBOED\). MAKE SURE that you specify YOUR OWN path if it
differs from the one he used.
The -P is TurboEDIT's path parameter and the %N expands to your NODE
directories (in Chris' case C:\SBBS\NODE1 or C:\SBBS\NODE).
The -N%# specifies which node the user is on, and is included for
saftey and to demonstrate the use of TurboEDIT's -N node number param-
eter in conjunction with Synchronet's node number variable.
Also, you might want to play with the -S parameter if you run a multi-
tasker. -S### (where the ### is 100ths of a second) detemines when a
time slice is released. Default is 1 second (100/100ths).
If you experience problems with TurboEDIT not being able to locate its
configuration file, you should set the TEDIT environment variable. This
can be done by adding the following line to your AUTOEXEC.BAT:
SET TEDIT=C:\SBBS\EXEC\TURBOED
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ (change this to the path to TurboEDIT).
Last but not least, put TEDIT in your GLOBAL SWAP LIST if you lack the
memory to run it without swaping the BBS out. Chris says he didn't
need to swap, and that TurboEDIT loads faster without swapping. When
upading the GLOBAL SWAP LIST, just put in TEDIT, NOT TEDIT.EXE.
