README.DOC for Alley-Wall 2.01 (C) David Pabst 1990-1992
All Rights Reserved
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Alley-Wall has many new and unique features that can't be found on any
other competing door (as far as I know...). Some of the great features
now include user selectable colors in entries, placement of new entries
on to the Alley-Wall in two ways (new on top, new on bottom), and many
more; For a complete list of changes print the HISTORY.DOC out.
This Really Is Version 2.01
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
AWSETUP v1.5 had a slight bug and it didn't completely save the config
file. Alley-Wall v2.0 would give an error message, and you'd be lost.
I updated AWSETUP to v1.6. DO NOT BE CONFUSED, THIS IS VERSION 2.01,
BUT I DID NOT UPDATE THE DOCUMENTATION OR ANYPLACE THAT SAID 2.0.
Thank you for trying Alley-Wall 2.0 (again)...
Misc Items
=-=-=-=-=-
In the documentation of previous versions, I accidentally put down my
wrong Compuserve ID; My compuserve ID IS 76547,2643.
Now Included with Alley-Wall is ALLYWALL.WPF. This is the fully
formatted version with page numbering, footnotes, headers, etc...
This file is in WordPerfect 5.1 file format.
Files Not On The File List
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
These files were not on the file list in the main documentation
(ALLYWALL.DOC). These files are:
AWBDUSER.LST List of people locked out of Alley-Wall
CATALOG.EXE DSP Software catalog
UPGRADE.EXE Upgrade program for Alley-Wall 1.5x\1.6x to 2.0
FILE_ID.DIZ Alley-Wall description file for automattic file
descriptions when it is uploaded.
AWDESC.DOC Description of Alley-Wall for placing in echoing
message bases.
PRINTDOC.BAT Simple batch to print documentation files.
... there may be a few more ... if it doesn't have AW as the first two
characters in the filename it might not be with Alley-Wall. Don't worry!
Upgrading From Version 1.5x\1.6x
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Alley-Wall now includes upgrading capabilities. If you have Alley-Wall
1.5, 1.51, 1.52, 1.53, 1.54, 1.55, 1.6, or 1.61 feel free to run UPGRADE
at the DOS prompt, and it will quickly UPGRADE your configuration file
to version 2.0. AWSETUP will automatically upgrade your configuration
as well.
Terms
=-=-=-=-=-=
Entries are what the user enters to go on to the Alley-Wall. Alley-Wall
is the bulletin. Occasionally, Bulletins are considered entries.
Be Sure To Read The Documentation
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Be sure to read the documentation! If you do, Alley-Wall will be up and
running in a shorter time, and you'll keep your sanity.
Alley-Wall is Shareware
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Alley-Wall is Shareware; Meaning it isn't free. You have 14 days (2
weeks) to test Alley-Wall out. If you like it, you must register, other-
wise it must be entirely deleted from your system.
Bugs
=-=-=-
If there are any bugs in Alley-Wall (the whole thing), most likely they
are in AWBDUSER.EXE, AWSETUP.EXE, or UPGRADE.EXE. In any case, please
report them to me so they can be exterminated.
