 └──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
     /L    This tells JEDI.EXE to load up in LOCAL mode.
     This is good for testing or when a sysop just wants to "try out" the
     door without messing with his BBS setup.  The /L mode will ask the
     user for his name and run the door in local mode.

     Use this to test your door to see if things are working properly.

     /Nx    (where x is 1..9) This specifies a "node number".
     Some bbs software support multinode environments in which you must
     know the node number of the drop file to use. For example, with
     Wildcat, you would specify JEDI.EXE /N%WCNODEID% for MultiNode
     use.

     /Bx   Where x is the locked baud rate, locked baud rates of up to
    115200 are accepted, 0 for no locked baud rate

    /D?    Path to drop file (i.e. jedi /Dc:\doors\jedi)

  Example:  JEDI /L  Will run in local Mode.

  Sample batchfiles:

  [Wildcat]
  @ECHO OFF
  COPY DOOR.SYS C:\WILDCAT\DOORS\JEDI
  CD\WILDCAT\DOORS\JEDI
  JEDI.EXE /N%WCNODEID% /Dc:wildcat\doors\jedi
  DEL DOOR.SYS
  CD\WILDCAT

  [RG/INIQ/OBV2/etc]
  @ECHO OFF
  COPY DOOR.SYS C:\DOORS\JEDI
  CD\DOORS\JEDI\
  JEDI /N%1
  DEL DOOR.SYS
  CD\BBS

  Sample cfg File:
  THE WHATEVER.BBS  -NAME OF YOUR BBS
  JOHN DOE          -NAME OF SYSOP
  DROPFILE TYPE     -DROP FILE TYPE DORINFO.DEF=DORINFO#.DEF DOOR.SYS=DOOR.SYS
  38400             -YOUR LOCKED BAUD RATE (0 = NO LOCKED BAUD RATE)

  THAT WAS EASY?
