- What is it?
-
- OPENWIDE.PPE is a PCBoard 15.1 PPE utility that will replace your old, and
- now obsolete OPEN or DOOR commands. It is a beautifully designed ANSI imple-
- mentation of the classic menu bar user interface. This is the 'WIDE' version
- which has support for up to 26 doors or PPE's. It also has description sup-
- port. Callers use their CURSOR movement keys (ARROW keys) to move the
- highlighted selection, pressing enter to launch the application.
-
- File in archive?
-
- You should have received the following files in this archive:
-
- OPENWIDE.PPE The executable PPE
- OPENWIDE.DOC This file you are reading now
- MAIN.CFG A sample configuration file
- FILE_ID.DIZ PCBoard @ code DIZ file.
-
- Installation:
-
- You can install this PPE independantly of your commands or you can replace
- your 'OPEN' or 'DOOR' commands by editing your CMD.LST file for the par-
- ticular conferences that you want to run it from. The following is a sample
- entry in a hypothetical CMD.LST file:
-
- OPEN 50 C:\PCB\PPE\WIDE\OPENWIDE.PPE MAIN.CFG
-
- *Notice MAIN.CFG. This is the configuration file which you wish to use for
- this CMD.LST file or the conferences that access it. You can name the con-
- figuration files any name. I chose MAIN.CFG because it is used for my main
- board conference. My online games conference uses GAMES.CFG. It's up to you.
-
- The configuration files *MUST* be included on this CMD.LST line. They must
- also be present in the same directory as the PPE file.
-
- Configuration file parameters:
-
- 1st line: Name of DOOR or PPE (8 chars or less)
- 2nd line: Description of DOOR or PPE (23 chars or less)
-
- Because PCBoard has reserved the UP cursor key for scrollback, sysops using
- OPENWIDE.PPE locally can use the alternate UP key, the HOME key.
