DOOMODEM
Configuration utility for DOOM 1.2 modem-vs-modem play
v1.0ß 2/18/94
Changes the default port and IRQ settings of the SERSETUP.EXE program!

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK and back up your original SERSETUP.EXE first.
I assume no responsibility for anything this program directly or
indirectly does. Information about how this program works is included
in the source code, which should accompany the program and this DOC file.
Why iD did not include a way to change these from within the
DOOM setup program, I do not know. The code to allow temporary
changes on the command line seems to exist within SERSETUP.EXE
(undocumented -irq and -port options), but I was completely unable to
get these to work. After downloading DOOM 1.2, I was really
looking forward to modem-vs-modem "DOOMwars". Imagine my frustration
when the game started to use the wrong configuration and there was
seemingly nothing I could do about it. After staying up all night
coding and hacking, I was playing ModemDOOM! And by using this
program, so can you... :-)
