This is intended to be a demo of the work that I have been doing in
the area of PCBOARD doors. The 5DRAW.EXE poker game included is to
demonstrate how a PCBDOOR works. PKR.CFG is the configuration file
used with the 5 Card Draw poker game.
The file PCBDOORS.TPU is the object code for the PCBDOORS subroutines
that have been compiled into a Turbo Pascal Unit to be used by the
Turbo Pascal 4.0 compiler. PCBDOORS.DOC should explain how the
subroutines are used in interfacing the program to Pcboard.
The file PCBSYS will explain the format of the PCBOARD.SYS file.
I have been thinking of how you should approach the problem of making
sure there is no user on the system when it is time to access the Fido
Network. I would check the system time before accessing the doors and
and if it is too close to that time then not allow the door to open.
So for exmaple if the maximum time allowed in the doors is 30 minutes
then check to see if there is 30 minutes left before the Network needs
access. A small configuration table should take care of the logistics.
If you have any questions leave me some mail...
