OVERVIEW
________
This ZIP file was created using the -AV function of PKZIP. If
my AV is missing then this file may not be complete of has been
tampered with. Complete and current editions of this program
are always available for D/L on Terminal Entry BBS. If the AV
is missing please complain to your sysop to stop the practice of
removing AV's as this is your assurance from the programmer that
the file is complete and virus free.
INSTALLATION
____________
Installation is fairly easy and straight-forward. The following steps and
examples should have you up and running in a very short period of time.
It is assumed that you are familiar with setting up DOORS on your system.
To this end, only examples of the configuration file and Door batch file
are described.
1) Place the Bad.cfg in the node home directory
2) Place the Bad.exe anywhere in your path.
3) Create the door.bat file for the door that you need registered
4) Run the Maketext.exe and enter the message you wish to display to
your callers about registering the door.
Follow this sample DOOR.BAT file if needed:
@ECHO OFF -----------------> Turns the Echo Off
CLS -----------------------> Clears the Screen
CD\WC30 -------------------> Change to your BBS's Node home directory
BAD BAD.CFG ---------------> Run Buy a Door before the main door
CD\WC30\DOOR\POKER --------> Go to the Main doors directory
POKER POKER.CFG -----------> Runs the Main Door
CD\WC30 -------------------> Goes back to the Node home directory
C:\WILDCAT\CALLINFO.BBS ──┐ <- For Wildcat!
C:\PCB\PCBOARD.SYS │ <- For PCBoard using PCBOARD.SYS only
C:\PCB\USERS │ <- For PCBoard using USERS only
C:\BBS\DOOR.SYS │ <- For Systems that support DOOR.SYS
C:\BBS\DORINFOx.DEF │ <- For QBBS/RBBS/RA. Replace x with Node #.
C:\BBS\USERINFO.DAT <- WILDCAT 3.0!
Terminal Entry BBS <- Your BBS Name
Alan <- SysOp's First Name
Bennett <- SysOp's Last Name
10 <- Number of seconds to delay after screen. 5+
11 <- Color to Use to display message to user
look at BAD.cfg for color code numbers
*****************************************************************************
Edit this .CFG file to suit your individual BBS. All 4 lines MUST
be present.
Line 1: This line points to where BAD.EXE will find the callers
information file. Just include the line that your particular
BBS uses. DO NOT put all of them in the CFG file.
Line 2: Place the name of your BBS on this line.
Line 3: SysOp's first name goes here.
Line 4: SysOp's last name goes here.
Line 5: Number of seconds to delay the announcement screen
Line 6: Color to display message in. Read sample BAD.CFG for color codes
If you use the above CFG file be sure to remove all remarks and use
a pure ASCII editor such as EDLIN or QEDIT. Hidden control codes could
cause the program to depart for worlds unknown.
4) Create a batch file or modify the DOOR.BAT file supplied. A
description of this file follows:
ECHO OFF
CD \WC30
BAD BAD.CFG EXE filename and CFG filename
CD\WCAT
CAT.BAT
5) When running in more than one node, be sure to supply a
different configuration name for each node (your choice of name).
EX: BAD1.CFG BAD2.CFG
BUY A DOOR has been tested under LIVECAT! and performs very well.
