- ProKIT - DOOR Building Kit Copyright 1988 Samuel H.Smith
- -------------------------- Version 2.8, 8/4/88
-
-
-
- ProKIT is a set of tools used to build PCBoard 14.0 DOOR programs in
- Turbo Pascal 4.0. It provides full access to all PCB setup, database
- and configuration files; a modest library of utility functions is also
- available.
-
-
- ProKIT based DOOR programs have many of the features developed for
- ProDOOR - sysop chat, continuous status display (same format as provided
- by PCB), shell to DOS, automatic color/graphics support, INTERRUPT, BIOS
- and PCBTRAP communication drivers, and much more.

- PROKIT.M - signon message file

- SourceWare: What is it?
- -----------------------
-
- SourceWare is my name for a unique concept in user supported
- software.
-
- Programs distributed under the SourceWare concept always offer
- source code.
-
- This package can be freely distributed so long as it is not modified
- or sold for profit. If you find that this program is valuable, you
- can send me a donation for what you think it is worth. I suggest
- about $20.

-
- Why SourceWare?
- ---------------
- Why do I offer source code? Why isn't the donation manditory? The
- value of good software should be self-evident. The source code is
- the key to complete understanding of a program. You can read it to
- find out how things are done. You can also change it to suit your
- needs, so long as you do not distribute the modified version without
- my consent.
-
-
- Copyright
- ---------
- If you modify this program, I would appreciate a copy of the new
- source code. I am holding the copyright on the source code, so
- please don't delete my name from the program files or from the
- documentation.

-
-
- SUPPORT
- =======
-
- I work very hard to produce a software package of the highest
- quality and functionality. I try to look into all reported bugs,
- and will generally fix reported problems within a few days.
-
- Since this is user supported software under the SourceWare concept,
- I don't expect you to contribute if you don't like it or if it
- doesn't meet your needs.
