MAKEKEY.EXE is a program that is used to create a key file for RACE.
The code you will need to input to MAKEKEY's prompt is provided only
upon registration of RACE.
Upon my receipt of your registration for RACE I will generate your
personal code and mail this code to you via netmail if you are in
FidoNet or U.S. Mail if you are not. Optionally, you may let me know
that you'd like to log on to my bbs and get the code in a message rather
than wait for the U.S. Mail to get there.
What you'll receive will look something like this... keep in mind that
this is merely an example:
Name: John Doe
Code: A056BN45
When you receive this, write it down or print it out so it's handy
when you run MAKEKEY.EXE. It would also be a very good idea to write
this down somewhere and save it in case you trash your key. You can
then generate a new key at any time.
NOTE: Your "Name:" must appear EXACTLY as it is in the FIRST record
of USERS.BBS. Upper/lowercase is not important but in all other
respects it must match exactly. If I did not generate your code
with your name as it exists in USERS.BBS, the key will NOT work.
Please contact me ASAP and I will deliver corrected information.
Run MAKEKEY.EXE at the dos prompt and answer the name and key code
prompts with the information I have provided. If you enter the
information correctly, MAKEKEY.EXE will create a file called RACE.KEY.
This is a very small file. Put RACE.KEY in the same directory as
RACE.EXE and you're done.
RACE will see this key file and the prompt to print a registration
form at exit will be gone and the following features will be
enabled:
(1) ALT-E to write a message during <V>alidation.
(2) ALT-W to quote user answers and load RACEEDIT.
(3) ALT-L to display today's callers.
(4) ALT-U to display users currently online.
(5) Password protection of <J>ump and <U>tils commands.
(6) Configurable "USERED" mode.
(7) Report templates.
Thanks once again for your support.
