FAST DOWNLOAD v1.2
First Let me tell you that Fast Download is a interface over I think
some of the Best sysop devices ever invented for the BBS.
FAST DOWNLOAD does'nt change these programs in anyway but rather brings
out the power in what they can do for you in one place.
Fast Download uses
DOORWAY to unlimited doors Written by Dudley Marshall
DSZ written OMEN TECHNOLOGY INC
I'm sure your fimiliar with these and maybe your using them right now.
I would recommend running this DOOR as a hook from your sysop menu.
This is just my first version the next version will have xmodem and ymodem
transfer capability.
Fast Download does'nt change,Modify,or alter Doorway Or DSZ it only acts
as an interface which passes there standard line commands as parameters
to them. Fast download does not come with Doorway or DSZ you can obtain
these products from just about any BBS or the authors themselves.
You Must USE DOORWAY AND DSZ FOR FAST DOWNLOAD TO WORK.
Fast download does'nt require a fossil driver it has its own com routines.
Fast download is very easy to set up!!
First make a directory FASTD for it and make sure you have these files
in the FASTD directory
FASTD.EXE FAST DOWNLOAD program
HELP.DOC ON-line Help doc for FAST DOWNLOAD MENU
PASSWORD Text password file for Doorway
DSZ.EXE or DSZ.COM DSZ by OMEN TECHNOLOGY INC.
DOORWAY.EXE Doorway Written by Dudley Marshall
DSZ.EXE or DSZ.COM and DOORWAY can be in another directory as long as
there in your Path.
Next edit PASSWORD you can type what ever Password you want to and if
you don't want a password just delete the Password File.
next call your FAST DOWNLOAD program using DOOR.SYS
EXAMPLE CALL BATCH FILE
CD\FASTD
FASTD C:\BBS\DOOR.SYS
CD\BBS
BOARD
Always use DOOR.SYS.
Note I have tested it on com 1,2,3,4 that should work just fine for most
systems If you need one to use on a digi system please leave me a message
on Fantasy BBS 703-722-4330
Fast Download will run locally. Of course you won't need to download
or upload but you can still drop to dos from it locally. Fast Download
works great from Remote.
Also just a reminder this is a door for SYSOPS only so make sure only
you have access to it or who knows what might happen.
P.S.
That is why I would recommend using a Password on doorway just in case.
Happy BBSING
David Stern
