- CILHSKIT # 1
-
- by Rob Brown a.k.a. "The Speed Merchant"
-
- This is a kit that allows you to quickly add HS/LINK as an
- external protocol to Cedar Island Link.
-
- Cedar Island Link - Cedar Island Software by Mike Caughran
-
- HS/LINK - The Tool Shop BBS by Samuel Smith
-
- Current version of Cedar Island Link : CILNK252.ZIP.
-
- If you haven't seen Cedar Island Link or HS/LINK you are missing
- two of the best treats in on-line communications.
-
- CIL - a Comm. Program that runs in DOS, DesqView, or Windows.
- CIL features easy install and setup with AWESOME Mouse
- support in either of the three. CIL is fully DesqView
- aware. CIL will run in Windows in a Virtualized Screen
- (less that full screen) and still allow full functions
- including the Mouse. CIL also has an EXTREMELY easy to
- use Script Lanquaqe.
-
- A Mouse is not required for CIL, it is NICE !
-
-
- HS/LINK - a High Speed Bi-Directional Protocol with simultaneous
- CHAT. (as Fast or Faster than ZModem). Your can send
- files and/or receive files while chatting. (with the
- keyboard) CHAT requires a registered version.
-
-
- If you send and receive files at the same time, you will save
- connect time, especially long distance, and help keep the Sysops
- happy.... If you use with a friend, you can CHAT while you
- transfer files.

-
- It is suggested that you have both programs in the same directory
- to allow simple addition of HS/Link to CIL. BESURE to run
- HSCONFIG.EXE to setup your default configuration. This is
- extremely simple to do.....
-
- EXTUPHS.BAT - allows you to Upload and/or Download files.
- You will be prompted for filespecs. Help is
- Displayed. To CHAT you must have the reg.
- version of HS/LINK. You can also use this
- bat file to do only uploads or downloads
- with no modification, except Com Port.
-
-
- EXTDWNHS.BAT - allows you to Upload and/or Download files
- with no prompting. Allows use of HS/Link
- for automated script transfers and mail
- runs. If you wish to upload you must create
- your FILES.LST in advance. This could
- also be used as Quick method to envoke
- HS/LINK.
-
- Copy EXTUPHS.BAT to EXTUPx.BAT in the CILINK directory.
- Substitute a 1, 2, 3, or 4 for the x depending on which
- external you desire to use from within CIL.
-
