Version 1.00 Released 05/13/92
- Initial Release
Version 1.10 Release 07/18/92
- Option to copy files to hard drive before download
- If above option is on, then RomDoor will add the file ROMDOOR.CMT to
the comment field of a ZIP file before the user downloads it.
Perfect for BBS ads!
- If your CD-ROMs have Volume labels and you have setup the CD Names
as the volume labels on the disks, then RomDoor will check the
drives to see which CD-ROMs are On-Line. This eliminates the need
for setting the CDSONLINE environmental variable.
(* NOTE *) You may still use the environmental variable, and you must if
your CDs don't have volume labels.
- DIRTODAT has been redesigned. Now you are presented with a screen
similar to WCFILE from WC! 3.5. This is a little easier to
understand.
- In addition DIRTODAT will now import multi-area file areas, that way
you don't have to separate the file areas for separate imports. To
import a multi-area textfile, go to the area in MakeRom that is the
same as the first area in the textfile. RomDoor will start
importing at that directory and will increment the area counter each
time it meets the end of a area (Blank line).
- Also now it will not import a invalid file name. So that means you
don't need to worry about headers or blank lines.
- MakeRom has more places where you can use PickLists, hopefully
making it easier to configure.
- PcBoard 14.5 is now supported. RomDoor will read in all the
pertinent data files. In addition to updating the DOOR.SYS so that
the PcBoard database is updated.
- Extended descriptions are now supported (PcBoard style), up to 10
lines of 40 characters each. Note: If you are upgrading you can
re-import you file areas and RomDoor will Update the record with
the multiline descriptions.
- Option to write directly to WC!'s log files. ACTIVITY.xxx
- You can now group the file areas together using group names, this is
extremely useful on multi-CD-ROM-drive systems, where you offer 100+
fileareas to the user at a time. Press ALT-G from MakeRom to edit
the names and press F2 from that screen to select the areas that are
in the group.
- New VGA font, changes text apperance on local screen and in the
other utilites.
- Improved checking for files on the disk, you will get no incorrect
errors (Unless of course you setup the area paths incorrectly)
- Works perfectly with WC! 3.5. And looks more like it too, now it
puts *'s near the marked files.
(* NOTE *) If you are using WC! 3.5's autonode feature make sure that
you are loading up RomDoor directly from the node work
directory, that means simply changing your DOORx.BAT which
loads up RomDoor to something like this:
@ECHO OFF
C:\ROMDOOR\ROMDOOR
*** Starting with this release of RomDoor, all REGISTERED users will
have access to download premade RomDoor databases! That means if
you send in your money you can save hours by downloading the
databases instead of making them yourself!
If you already have the registered version, call IDS and logon,
once you get on the system leave me a message (JEFF BISSON) saying
that you are a registered user of RomDoor. I will upgrade you and
then you will have access to all of the PreMade databases and the
update for the RomDoor extra utilities, RDEXTRA.ZIP.
