- This is a complete, working FidoNet Point Kit for OS/2 1.1 and 1.2.
-
- You will have to edit a couple of files with address information, and
- later, as you add Echomail Conferences, more editing. A couple of batch
- files here will simply this task for you.
-
- You will also have to edit the BINKLEY.CFG file with commands for your
- MODEM. I've included the commands that work on a Turbo AT with a
- relatively typical non-Hayes 2400 MODEM. You will probably have to
- make some changes to them for your particular hardware; don't think
- that only the software has to change, though. One of the unusual
- axioms of this hobby is that you can't always get around misconfigured
- hardware with software. Review the switch settings (and NVRAM contents)
- before jumping into the software configuration.
-
- I've used all this software successfully for months now. Some in its
- current OS/2 form; the rest under DOS until, each in its turn, it
- began to run under OS/2.
-
- So, what you do is uncompress all this stuff into a subdirectory on your
- hard drive (the one you want all this stuff installed into), and invoke
- POINTKT, or invoke POINTKT d:, where d: is the drive where you want it.
- [The files all assume C:, and a C:\BINK as the runtime subdirectory.]
-
-
- Here's the contents, and what it does, for POINTKT3.ZIP and PTKTEXE3.ZIP:
-
-
- POINTKT.CMD
-
- Insures correct directory structure, creating it if necessary. Puts
- the files into their correct directories. Invokes the necessary edits
- to get you on your way. Configures BinkleyTerm.
-
- ECHOADD.CMD
-
- Insures correct directory structure, and all necessary files are editted.
