- Help file program
-
- This program is designed to transmit a file from the BPQ node, for use as a help
- file or similar. It is designed for use with the BPQ TheNode software and
- Desqview.
-
- There are two files supplied;
-
- HELP.EXE The program.
- HELP.NEW A list of updates.
- HELP.DOC This file.
-
- The program requires some command line parameters; the COM's port number, the
- application number and the file name.
-
- For example;
-
- HELP 3 16 C:\BPQ\HELP.TXT
- | | |
- | | |
- | | \
- | | File name
- | \
- | Application number

- COM 03:
-
-
- The COM port number is the virtual BPQ COM port you allocate to this program.
-
- The application number, is the number of the program allocated in the BPQCFG
- file. Note this is in decimal, and the BPQ node allocates it in Binary, with
- each bit. So 16 is $10 (hex) or 00010000 binary, the fifth application in the
- APPL list.
-
- The file name is for the help file, and should give the device and the path as
- well, in case you change the current directory, or if it is in another.
-
- To end the program use the 'Esc' key THIS WILL TAKE A FEW SECONDS (in DESQview
- you may have to try twice). If you just close the DESQview window the BPQ node
- will still think the program there and will still accept connections.
-
- I hope that all that was not too garbled! If you have any problems, contact
- myself:-
