SEARCHLIGHT ----> DORINFOx.DEF
Where x is the node number up to 9.
Here's a simple program I wrote to make DORINFOx.DEF files so
that doors using this drop file format can easily interface with
Searchlight. I am not running a multi-node system here so if
there are any problems please contact me at my BBS. (Number
below.)
The use is very simple. All you do is have to pass the correct
Searchlight metacharacters to a batch file that will call
SL2DORM, which will create the correct file, then call the game
you want to execute.
Example:
In Searchlight door menu:
11. Door Command................ TRIVBAT.BAT %U %G %M %B %P %A %O
12. Directory Path.............. D:\DOORS\TRIVIA
Now..... here's what the TRIVBAT.BAT file should look like:
sl2dorm.exe %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7
trivia.exe trivia.cfg
You'll also need to create a text file called SL2DORIN.CFG which
will tell the program a couple things. Should contain:
Line 1 : Your First Name
Line 2 : Your Last Name
Line 3 : Your BBS Name
Example SL2DORIN.CFG:
Ross
Himes
Lake Effect
So that sould do it for ya. If you have any problem, suggestions
or questions please call my bbs @ 1-219-929-5574.. or Fido
1:230/10.. or SL_NET 250:210/348.
Thanks,
Ross Himes
