- This is intended to be a demo of the work that I have been doing in
- the area of PCBOARD doors. The 5DRAW.EXE poker game included is to
- demonstrate how a PCBDOOR works. PKR.CFG is the configuration file
- used with the 5 Card Draw poker game.
-
- The file PCBDOORS.TPU is the object code for the PCBDOORS subroutines
- that have been compiled into a Turbo Pascal Unit to be used by the
- Turbo Pascal 4.0 compiler. PCBDOORS.DOC should explain how the
- subroutines are used in interfacing the program to Pcboard.
-
- The file PCBSYS will explain the format of the PCBOARD.SYS file.
-
- I have been thinking of how you should approach the problem of making
- sure there is no user on the system when it is time to access the Fido
- Network. I would check the system time before accessing the doors and
- and if it is too close to that time then not allow the door to open.
- So for exmaple if the maximum time allowed in the doors is 30 minutes
- then check to see if there is 30 minutes left before the Network needs
- access. A small configuration table should take care of the logistics.
-
- If you have any questions leave me some mail...
