NODE-DOOR 2.03 Copyright (C) 1992, Don Laverdure
NODE-DOOR is a simple to install node list searching door that will
allow users maximum flex ability when looking up addresses and other
information located in the nodelist.
To Install simply copy the file NODEDOOR.EXE into a directory. Then
using any style of door exit, use the following command line.
NODEDOOR path1 path2 0 1
path1 is the path to your DORINFO1.DEF File
path2 is the path where the raw nodelist is located. The nodelist must
be un-compressed and follow standard fidonet naming techniques.
0 place a 0 after the second path
1 this is the node for multi-node boards. If you are running this
door on node 2 then this would be set to 2 so that the door will
look for DORINFO2.DEF rather then DORINFO1.DEF.
Under RA and some other systems, This would be set to 1 for all
nodes as they all use the dorinfo1.def

SAMPLE BATCH FILE: NODEDOOR.BAT
@ECHO OFF

CD\DOORS
NODEDOOR C:\MAXIMUS C:\NODELIST 0 1
This is a sample of a batch file as used on a MAXIMUS system. Please
check you BBS software for instructions on installing door programs.
WARNING! This door requires a FOSSIL driver such as BNU or X00.
SYSOP KEYS: arrow up = increase user time
arrow down = decrease user time
alt H = hang up
alt J = shell to dos
alt L = Lock out
alt K = turn off caller's keyboard
alt D = drop to BBS
alt C = chat mode
F1 = caller info display
F9 = Help bar
USING NODEDOOR:
When selected, you will be asked to enter a search string. This is
what Node Door will use to compare against the nodelist. Do not use
the underscores IE: Don Laverdure *NOT* Don_Laverdure.
You can search for any string you feel might be contained in the
nodelist. To find a list of the boards in Kingston Ontario, simply
enter a search string of "Kingston" or "Kingston on". Note that
"Kingston Ont" will not work as the entries in the nodelist all
contain "ON" and not "ONT" for Ontario.
You can search for phone numbers like "1-613" to get all 613 area
code listings, or Bill to get a list of boards that have a SysOp by
the name of "Bill" or the word "Bill" in the BBS name, ect...
Capitalization is not important. Spelling is.
Note that SysOp name do not appear but are valid for searching, Just
as are user flags like "UNEC", "HST" or "USDS". Do not include Quotes.
Private listings, and Systems marked as Down will not appear
in the listings as they are un-dialable any way. Hubs will also not
appear as they are double listed and you only need one listing.
To exit the door, simply enter a blank search string. To abort the
search while in progress, press either S or ESC.
Well, That is all there is to it. It is a fairly fast door when you
think about the size of the nodelist. My callers and I find it very
helpful and I hope you do too.
Special Thanks to Bill Cassidy, "BILLZO" of 1:249/1 for his
suggestions and Beta Testing with MAXIMUS.
