PROTRNS replacement for ProDoor 3.4x

This file DOES NOT require registration, donation or even blessing!
Use it, if you like it.
PROTRNS replaces original Sam Smith's PROTRNS file distributed with
ProDoor 3.x files. To implement, just copy this file OVER the
original PROTRNS which might be found in d:\PROD directory (where d:
is the driver letter.)
If you have no idea what this file does, STOP... This file is NOT FOR
YOU.
Due to memory limitation of ProDoor allowance for PROTRNS, you might
find yourself in a small "bind" as I did. I noticed that my DOWNLOAD
or UPLOAD batch files were aborting. This is due to the RAM left in
ProDoor to keep track of the DRIVE:\PATH\FILENAME.EXT & when:
a) batch file transfer is issued
b) more than 1 or 2 files are selected
c) long path names are involved (G:\PCB\MAIN_UPL\FILENAME.EXT)
... The system simply aborts the batch transfer.
I must tell you that the above case strictly depends on the available
RAM on your system & there is no way that I can assure you of this
occurrence.
Solution
--------
I simply switched to Sam's OVERLAY version of ProDoor & all my
problems went away. Overlay version of ProDoor can be downloaded from
ANY quality BBS.
There are a few places in this file where the name "COM2: BBS" or
"COM2: Remote BBS" are mentioned. Please replace this with your BBS's
name.
Should you add or modify this file, please upload it to the above BBS,
so we all can have a universal version of PROTRNS. I call this version
PROTRNS3.ZIP Please see that the next version would have a different
rev. number.
Disclaimer
----------
Use at your own risk. Please make a backup copy or your original PROTRNS
file.

To Samuel Smith for writing ProDoor & burning himself to the ground
(without you Sam, this file would not exist)
