- Ok, here is some extra info for SBBS v1.11 sysops.
-
- - You should put the variable BBS=SBBS in your environment.
- (Set BBS=SBBS)
- As I didn't find a decent way yet to recognice the BBS which
- is running the door. (Ra sysops can also use BBS=RA, but since
- I'm an RA sysop myself thatone is the default..)
-
- - SBBS sysops have to add the *E parameter if they want to use the
- sysop-keys inside the door. (That is, you can use them inside the
- door anyhow, but without the *E adjusting time and such wouldn't
- be passed back to the BBS)
-
- - Since AVATAR isn't supported by SBBS it cannot be selected while
- running SBBS.
-
- - Language support for SBBS systems works like this:
-
- * The door looks into the userinfo to see which language file is
- selected.
- * The first 3 characters of the language filename are used as an
- extention for the language file which should be found in the
- doors home directory (i.e. the directory where the EXE is OR
- the directory where the <DOORNAME>= environment variable points
- too.
-
- f.e. The user has selected the HOLLANDS.LGN file. The doors (Say NEWS)
- looks for a language file with the name NEWS.HOL (and also the helpfile
- NEWSHELP.HOL) This file should be in the directory where the NEWS=
- environment variable points to OR (if you don't use the environment var)
- in the same directory as the EXE file.
-
- On the other side, all the DesqView and multiline functions should work.
- To detect Multiline I check the configfile for the number of lines.
- If the number is >1, multiline is turned on and share is supposed to be
- there.
