D. SetUp
Scrabble is very easy to set up. I've included support for most of the
popular BBS softwares internally - this means that you won't have to
worry about any Door Conversion programs, as it will probably read the
information directly from whatever software you are running.
Currently, I support: PCBoard v14x, GAP, Genesis Deluxe, Osiris,
Osiris SE, WildCat, SpitFire, RBBS, Remote
Access, GT, GT v15.5, QuickBBS and WWIV.
I'll be happy to add support for any others not mentioned as long as you
send me the specifications for your program's Door Information file.
Note: The Scrabble.Dic file is NOT contained in the Demo Release files
and should be obtained separately! It is available from my board as
ScrabDic.Zip. This file is necessary to play the game! It should also
be available from any BBS where the Scrabble Door is found.
- Create a separate subdirectory where you will place all of the
Scrabble Door files.
- Either Edit the Sample.Cfg file to your own Configuration OR, run the
Setup.Exe program to automatically write a Scrabble.Cfg file.
- Add an appropriate BAT file that your BBS program understands.
eg. CD \SCRABBLE
SCRABDOR SCRABBLE.CFG {The Config file can be named Anything!}
CD \BBS
- You should be ready to roll!
E. Command Line Paramters
There are a few command line paramters that ScrabDor.Exe understands.
- [Config File Name] eg. Scrabdor My.Cfg
Specifies a different configuration file to use other than the
default Scrabble.Cfg.
- [Local] eg. Scrabdor Local
Runs the Door in Local Mode. Allows you to log onto the game with
any name. If the name happens to be the name of the Sysop specified
in the configuration file, and you have a valid Scrabble.Key all
Sysop functions will be enabled.
