LAUNCH (c)1995 Randy M. Harris, all rights reserved.
=====================================================
- Tired of editting SDL every time you want to try
something new on your TBBS?
- Want to test different optional data, switches and
parameters on an SDL/TYPE= entry?
- LAUNCH is the perfect utility to test TBBS/SDL menu
entries. With LAUNCH there is no need to edit, re-
compile, runbbs, navigate to entry, test over and
over and over!
=====================================================
Installing LAUNCH
=====================================================
1. Make a directory, (example uses C:\LAUNCH)
2. Copy the distribution files to (C:\LAUNCH)
LAUNCH.DOC (this file)
LAUNCH.TPG tdbs program
add a single entry to one of you menus (probably
the "sysop menu", or as an entry on another menu
with a PRIV=255 setting)-
Entry:
<L>aunch
KEY=L TYPE=200 OPT DATA=C:\LAUNCH\LAUNCH /Q
WARNING!: ALL TBBS MENU COMMANDS MAY BE AVAILABLE
======== TO A CALLER WHO HAS ACCESS TO LAUNCH!
(All userlog settings for caller, ie A1=,A2=,PRIV=
etc., apply to commands exectuted using LAUNCH).
=====================================================
Using LAUNCH
=====================================================
LAUNCH allows you to enter TBBS/SDL values-
"TYPE = ___"
and
"OPT DATA = ___________..."
and then runs the entry immediately!
Pressing [ESC] key will exit LAUNCH and return
you to the menu.
It's that simple! After the command runs, you
will be returned to LAUNCH (except on some menu
commands which can't return, ie- TYPE=5, TYPE=12
TYPE=35 TYPE=45, etc).
