This is the FOSSIL version of the Cam-Mail Door. This program will
*ONLY* work with you are using the /M version of PCBoard. If you aren't,
the program will ABORT and will not run.
If you've followed the DOCS that Clark Development, Inc. included, you
will have noticed that they suggest that you use the SET FOSSIL=F environment .
All of this documentation relies that you are using this environment as it will
make things very easy to setup.
Step #1:
You will need to modify your MAIL Batch file. Change it to look something
like this:
CD \CAM-MAIL
%FOSSIL%CAM-MAIL %PCBDRIVE%%PCBDIR% NO /NOWINDOW
%PCBDRIVE%
CD %PCBDIR%
BOARD.BAT
You will notice that the EXE FOSSIL name is FCAM-MAI.EXE. This is where
the SET FOSSIL=F environment comes into play. This way the door will
load properly (otherwise, it won't run or you'll run into problems).
Step #2:
You will also need to MODIFY your CAMSZ.BAT and CAMRZ.BAT. I've tested
the external protocol and everything works. However, the problem is
trying to get ahold of a ZMODEM.EXE that actually works properly <g>.
The documentation that Clark Development specifies for their PCB?Z.BAT
files will work just fine for Cam-Mail as well. You just need to rename
them to CAMSZ.BAT and CAMRZ.BAT and place them in the CAM-MAIL directory.
Here's an example of the CAMSZ.BAT:
echo off
if %FOSSIL%==F goto FOSSIL
dsz handshake both pB4096 estimate 0 %5 z sz %3
goto done
:FOSSIL
szmodem port %1 speed %2 sz %3 /FOSSIL /DELAYTIME 0 /NORBL /NOSBL
:done
Here's an example of the CAMRZ.BAT:
echo off
if %FOSSIL%==F goto FOSSIL
dsz handshake both estimate 0 %5 pB4096 pd0 z pr1 rz -p %3
goto done
:FOSSIL
szmodem port %1 speed %2 rz %3 /FOSSIL /DELAYTIME 0 /NORBL /NOSBL /FL
:done
Both of these BATCH files have been included. At the time of this
writing, PCBoard's Zmodem is in BETA testing. According to messages
that I've seen posted by CDC employee's, their version of Zmodem wil
work properly in the FOSSIL mode. The testing that I did with their
Zmodem required the PCBOARD.DAT to be in the current directory. What
you will need to do (if you plan on using theirs) is to change to the
PCBoard NODE directory and then run the program. You could modify your
CAMSZ.BAT/CAMRZ.BAT to look like this:
echo off
if %FOSSIL%==F goto FOSSIL
dsz handshake both pB4096 estimate 0 %5 z sz %3
goto done
:FOSSIL
%PCBDRIVE%
CD %PCBDIR%
zmsend port %1 speed %2 sz %3 /FOSSIL /DELAYTIME 0 /NORBL /NOSBL
CD \CAM-MAIL
:done
That's about it. Those are the only two modifications that are required.
Enjoy and have fun!
