- USING TELIX WITH EXTERNAL HS/LINK
-
-
- Installation:
-
- Please refer to the TELIX manual for detailed information on
- installation of external protocols. The following installation
- steps should work for most folks:
-
- Copy the provided HS-D.BAT and HS-U.BAT files, as well as
- HSLINK.EXE into your TELIX directory, or into a directory included
- in your search PATH.
-
- You can edit HS-D.BAT and HS-U.BAT to include options on the HSLINK
- command line, but most folks won't need to change anything. If you
- want to experiment, there are a number of optional parameters you
- can read about in HSLINK.DOC and HSLINK.NEW.
-
- Next you need to install the HS/LINK protocol into the TELIX
- protocol menu.
-
- Load up TELIX and press ALT-O to get into the CONFIGURE menu. Then
- cursor down to the PROTOCOL OPTIONS selection and press ENTER. In
- this screen, you press A (B, or C if you already have other
- external protocols configured).
- When asked for "KEY" enter "H".
- When asked for "PROTOCOL NAME" enter "HS/Link".
- When asked for "UPLOAD FILENAME" enter "HS-U.BAT".
- When asked for "DOWNLOAD FILENAME" enter "HS-D.BAT".
- When asked for "BAT or SCRIPT" select "BATCH FILE".
- When asked "Should TELIX ask for filenames on download?" say "NO".
- Then press ENTER to get out of this screen and cursor down to
- "WRITE SETUP TO DISK" and press ENTER to save your changes.
-
- To download with HS/LINK, first you tell the BBS you're talking to
- what files you want to download, and that you want to download in
- the HS/LINK protocol. On the Tool Shop you can do this with the
- following command:
- D H filename filename S
- for example,
- D H TOOLSHOP.EXE S
-
- Once you've got the BBS into downloading mode, you press the PGDN
- key and select the HS/LINK protocol from the menu.
-
- If you want to also upload to the BBS while downloading, you simply
- press the PGUP key instead of PGDN, select HS/LINK from the menu,
- and list the upload filenames you want to have transmitted.
-
- I hope these instructions help, but remember, I can't take
- responsibility for anydamages resulting from these instructions. If you
- get stuck, it always helps to read the DOC files that come with TELIX
- and with HSLINK. If all else fails, call up the tool shop and ask for
- help on the main board. Either I will help you, or somebody else will
- know the answer and give you a hand.
-
- Good luck!
