- PROGRAM DESCRIPTION:
- ====================
-
- LEMONADE is a fairly simple game. Your mother has given you $1.00 to get
- your lemonade stand started. The object of the game is to sell as many
- glasses of lemonade as possible in a set number of days.
-
- After the user hits the 'N' key he will be shown today's weather forecast.
- He will then be prompted to enter how many glasses he wants to make followed
- by how much to charge per glass.
-
- The weather and temperature have a direct bearing on how many glasses will
- be sold. If it rains, none will be sold.
-
-
- NOTE:
- =====
-
- The LEMON.KEY file that is distributed with this door does NOT expire!
- This is simply here so the door has a KEY to read. When you register,
- you will receive a new LEMON.KEY file.
-
- The user is limited to 4 GAME DAYS until registerd.
-
- The user is limited to just ONE play per day until registered.
-
-
- FEATURES:
- =========
- --- Desqview Aware.
- --- COM1-15 support and non-standard IRQ's.
- --- Colorful ANSI screens.
- --- Chat function.
- --- NO BRUN module needed for play.
- --- Will return to BBS on dropped carrier.
- --- Will TIMEOUT a player after 5 minutes of no activity.
- --- Use of HOT KEYS while in the door.
- --- Support BBS available.
- --- Easily RESET the entire program.
-
-
- INSTALLATION:

-
- Example Batch File
- ==================
-
- A sample batch file is included and is similer to the following:
- ECHO OFF
- CD\DOORS\LEMON <=- Switch to the door's Directory.
- LEMON LEMON.CFG <=- Execute the door program and pass the
- configuration filename to the program.
- CD\PCB <=- Go back to PCB DIR when user exits door.
- BOARD <=- Restart BBS.
-
- This Door is multi-node compatible so you may run more than 1 node from
- the same .CFG file provided the path to your system file (DORINFOx.DEF,
- CALLINFO.BBS, etc) is exactly the same unless you are using environment
- variables, (q.v.)
-
- Environment Variables
- =====================
-
- PCBoard automatically creates the %PCBDRIVE% & %PCBDIR% environment
- variables. Non-PCBoard systems may also use these variables by including
- the following in either your BBS batch or AUTOEXEC.BAT
- SET PCBDRIVE=C: <- Drive letter of your BBS files
- SET PCBDIR=\BBSDIR <- Path to your BBS files
- Then in your Door .CFG file instead of putting C:\BBSDIR\DOOR.SYS, you
- would put %PCBDRIVE%%PCBDIR%\DOOR.SYS. This allows you to use just one
- .CFG file for multi-node operation!
-
- To specify a non-standard IRQ, put the IRQ number after the .CFG on the
- command line. For example:
-
- LEMON LEMON.CFG /5
- or using the PCBDRIVE procedure: SET IRQ=5 and use
- LEMON LEMON.CFG /%IRQ%
-
- This tells the program to use IRQ 5 instead of the standard IRQ.
-
- Had reports of conflicts when using non-standard IRQ's on Novell/Netware
- systems. Seems Novell also uses the / character so something went screwy
- somewhere. So I added the * (asterisk) which may be used instead of the /
- in case of a conflict. In other words, /%IRQ% and *%IRQ% will both work
- and are interchangeable.
-
- When specifying the location of the system file on line 1 of the doors .CFG
- file, you may use the environment variables %pcbdrive%, %pcbdir%, %pcbnode%,
- and %wcnodeid%. Some examples:
- PCBoard:
- USERS.SYS in C:\PCB - %pcbdrive%%pcbdir%\USERS.SYS
- USERS.SYS in C:\PCB\NODE1 - %pcbdrive%%pcbdir%\NODE%pcbnode%\USERS.SYS
-
- Wildcat!:
- USERINFO.DAT in C:\WC\NODE1 - C:\WC\NODE%wcnodeid%
-
- Non-PCBoard systems may use the PCB environment variables by setting them
- in either AUTOEXEC.BAT or in the batch that runs the door. For example:
- SET PCBDRIVE=C:
- SET PCBDIR=\BBSDIR
- SET PCBNODE=1
-
- Fossil Driver Support
- ---------------------
- DoorFrame supports the use of Fossil drivers. To tell your Door to use the
- Fossil driver instead of the standard COM ports, just put /FD on the command
- line when running the door. For example:
- MYDOOR MYDOOR.CFG /FD
- indicates that a Fossil driver is present and should be used. If no Fossil
- driver is detected, DoorFrame will print a message to that effect and exit
- the door gracefully.
-
