SPECIAL THANKS GO OUT TO:
Dark Knight - Just for being there to help... SorrySoft wouldnt be
here today if he wouldn't have helped!

Disclaimer:
Use at your OWN risk, PERIOD. It works fine on ours.
All the trademarks used in this manual belong to their rightful owners...
License Agreement:
TheWALL is COPYRIGHTED Freeware, You may use it, But may NOT modify
ANY of the documentation/executables, PERIOD.
Introduction:
Not too much to introduce, This is SorrySofts first complete door...
Many more WILL follow! Keep your eyes open!
Installation:
Create a directory for TheWALL, Or just run from your main BBS directory.
There's only 3 files, So it shouldn't be too much clutter in your main
directory, Although it doesn't matter...
Just edit THEWALL.CFG to have the following fields:
PATH AND FILENAME TO YOUR DROPFILE
(door.sys,dorinfox.def,pcboard.sys,callinfo.bbs)
YOUR BBS NAME
YOUR FIRST NAME
YOUR LAST NAME
ALIAS SUPPORT? (0 = NO, 1 = YES)
Thats all for the CONFIG...
Next, To run the door, Use the following syntax:
THEWALL.EXE THEWALL.CFG
to lock the comm port:
THEWALL.EXE THEWALL.CFG LOCKED:[baudrate]
Example:
THEWALL.EXE THEWALL.CFG LOCKED:19200
Thats it!
Last Words:
These are the last words of the two designers of TheWALL...

Just thought I'd mention to all you sysops out there, There are some cool
little hidden "TRICKS" in the door.... Its up to YOU to find out, I don't
want to describe them in the documentation because then, All of your users
could download it from somewhere, And then know all the secrets and well,
You get the point! (Dont worry, Its nothing that can damage your system!)
Expect a LOT of new doors from us coming out soon... If ya wanna pick up
the newest doors, Call one of our BBS'es... (At the top) The stuff will
PROBABLY be on my board, The Georgia PC, Sooner than on the Comic Shoppe,
But, Dont JUST call mine because of that! Call the Comic Shoppe to get
stuff too... We will both probably have the newest versions of the doors
online to play/use... If you see a door made for a specific BBS program,
And want it for another BBS software, Please let us know!!! We'll try our
best to convert it over if enough requests are made!
This door is probably one of our smallest doors made, But, Its still a
decent door.... We both use it for our boards... We found that most other
grafitti walls required registration and didn't support the features that
TheWALL supports...

I'm not much for words, but I thought I'd add in a few things Da
forgot to say.
You can use any @ color codes to colorize what you say. Also, you can
use many @ commands (such as @USER@)... It's up to you to figure out
which ones work and which ones don't. Reason? Have fun with it! Test
it out and try different things, like DA said, there are quite a few
hidden 'things' in this door (none of which will harm your computer,
so don't worry =).
Keep an eye out for a few more "freeware" releases, such as --
Secure-A-Door: To overlap any Doors you want to allow only certain
people in. Looks VERY, VERY good!
Emergency Pager: A file lists only those you want to have access to
it. Looks VERY, VERY good!
Also look for our FakeDos (trick users in the most realistic "fake"
Dos EVER!), GoTCHa (a Door to allow callers to "assassinate" each
other on the Board), Gods of WaR (door game were YOU become a god,
battling other gods and their followers - kill, main & destroy) and
Trakkerz In Time (better known as "TiT" -- it WILL blow your socks
off!!).
