MORE_R.COM
MORE_R is one of a series of DOORs .BAT programs for SysOp's to
utilize for increasing the ability of their standard BBS systems.
The other programs are PAUSE_R, ECHO_R, GETKEY_R, and TYPE_R. With
these files, a SysOp can have a non-CTTY DOORs system that is
virtually unbreakable.
MORE_R works just like the DOS TYPE command, except for two major
differences:
1: It will simultaneously output to COM1: as well as the screen.
2: It will pause after 24 lines, and ask if the user wants to
view more (just like the DOS MORE filter, except a response
of "Y" or a carriage return will continue, an "N" will
abort the display, and "C" will cause continuous non-stop
scrolling).
The format for using MORE_R *MUST* be as follows:
MORE_R drive:/subdirectory(s)/filename.ext
The drive and subdirectory name MUST be included. The drive may
NOT go beyond "E". This program assumes that the serial card is
installed and working, and no error checking for communications is
done. For COM2:, use MORE_R2.COM.
A typical example could be:
ECHO OFF
:LOOP
TYPE_R C:\DOOR\MAINMENU
GETKEY_R YNR
IF ERRORLEVEL 89 GOTO RACTER
IF ERRORLEVEL 82 GOTO LISTING
IF ERRORLEVEL 78 GOTO PCBOARD
:RACTER
RACTER
GOTO LOOP
:LISTING
MORE_R C:\DOOR\RACTER.OUT
GOTO LOOP
:PCBOARD
PCBOARD
It is suggestes that for non-ANSI, and for large ASCII text, that
MORE_R be used. For ANSI graphics, use TYPE_R.
