BRAINEX KENO

Welcome to the Brainex Keno. This game simulates Las Vegas style
keno. The door works with GAP, PCBoard, Wildcat, Spitfire, WWIV,
and RBBS, as well as any BBS that generates a DOOR.SYS file when
running a door.
This version of Brainex Keno craps will only work with the Brainex
Door System Manager. You if you have not set up thr door manager,
please do that first before you set up this door.
This game is intended for those callers who can support ANSI Color.
Monochrome callers will be able to play, but ANSI is a must.
Brainex Keno Files
---------------------
KENO.EXE <------------------ Brainex Keno Program
KENO.DOC <------------------ Sysop's Information
REGISTER.DOC <------------------ Registration information
FILE_ID.DIZ <------------------ Short File Description
UPGRADE.DOC <------------------ Upgrade news
SETUP.BAT <------------------ Setup batch file
All of these files should be in this ZIP, if they are not, don't
take a chance! Call The Brainex System and get a good copy or view the
file on a few local boards to see if you can find a complete copy.
The setup of Brainex Keno is simple, all you need to do is run the
SETUP batch file. A BRAINEX\KENO directory will be created.
KENO.EXE will be copied to the BRAINEX directory, and KENO.DOC
will be placed in the BRAINEX\KENO directory.
2.
Once you have set up the door, you must then create a a batch
file to call the door. A batch file for a GAP BBS might look like this:
@ECHO OFF
KENO
You will also need to modify your doors menu files and the data
file that tells the BBS what your doors are and the security
level needed to access them. For GAP, these are respectively:
DOORM
DOORMG
DOORS.DAT
Please refer to your BBS documentation for details on
setting up these files.
If you are running multi-nodes, simply add the node number command
after the door name:
KENO NODE=2
It is recommended but not required that you call Brainex Keno with the
node number option on the command line. If you don't, Brainex Keno will
simply default to single node operation.

The following sysop functions are available while awaiting
keyboard input :
F5 - Shell to DOS.
F8 - Twit user and return to BBS.
F10 - Initiate chat with user.
CF10 - Answer user page bell.
Home - Main user stats.
End - Displays sysop keys available.
PgDn - Secondary user stats.
Up Arrow - Increase user's time remaining by 5 minutes.
Dn Arrow - Decrease user's time remaining by 5 minutes.
One of the nicer features about using the TWIT key, is the user
is not told that "the sysop wants them to return to the BBS".
Instead, a very plain and simple message of "returning you to the
BBS" is displayed. This way, the user is given no indication
that the sysop is hovering about.
When using the F5 shell to DOS key, to return to the door
program, simply type EXIT at the DOS command prompt. It is not
necessary to change directories back to the door directory.
Brainex Keno is smart enough to know which drive and directory the
door program is in and will reset the defaults upon return from
DOS.
The Up and Down Arrow keys increase and decrease the user's time
respectively by 5 minutes for each press of the key. There is no
indication of what is occurring (except by the fact the user's
time remaining will change), so the sysop should try not to have
a lead finger. The increase or decrease is effective only while
the user is in Brainex Keno.
