Dear Registered SPITFIRE Sysop:
We at Buffalo Creek Software would like to take this opportunity
to thank you for your support of SPITFIRE. The first thing you must
do is overwrite your current SPITFIRE.EXE and SPITFIRE.OVR files with
the version 3.3 SPITFIRE.EXE and SPITFIRE.OVR files. Additionally,
you must copy the new SPITFIRE.HLP, LAKOTA.COM, SFPCKUSR.COM and
SFPCKMSG.COM into your SPITFIRE home directory. Further, copy
SFBATCHD.BBS/CLR and SFBATCHU.BBS/CLR into your DISPLAY directory.
In the event that you are converting from SPITFIRE version 3.2
to the greatly enhanced SPITFIRE Version 3.3, the following steps
will have to be executed.
CONVERTING FROM SPITFIRE VERSION 3.2 TO VERSION 3.3
Begin by placing SF32_33.EXE in each SPITFIRE HOME directory per
each node and execute it. Messages will appear on the screen as it
works to update system and work files to SPITFIRE v3.3 format.
SF32_33 will convert SFNODE.DAT, SFSYSTEM.DAT, SFMSG.MNU, SFFILE.MNU,
the SFORDER files, SFMCONF.DAT, SFFAREA.DAT and SFUSERS.DAT. Once
this process is finished, then SF32_33 will ask a series of questions
required to create LAKOTA.CFG. NOTE: In the event you are running
multi node, make sure that LAKOTA.CFG is in the home directory of
each node.
Once this is completed, SF32_33 will display messages that
inform you what additional steps YOU MUST TAKE to complete the
conversion process. Follow these steps closely!
Additionally, SFMSG.MNU and SFFILE.MNU have been altered by
removing "<S>....SPITFIRE Doors Section" and replacing it with
"<L>... LAKOTA (QWK Mail System)" in SFMSG.MNU and replacing it with
"<S>..... Shuffle Files" in SFFILE.MNU. Therefore, in the event you
are using display files for menus then you will have to alter your
display files appropriately.
Again, thank you for your support of SPITFIRE and other fine
Buffalo Creek products.
With very best wishes, I am,
Sincerely yours,
Ann Woltz
