- SYSOP DOCUMENTATION
-
- INTRO
-
- Add-A-Line Graffiti Door is a simple door to allow your users to enter jokes,
- puns, quotes or other graffiti or to slam each other or maybe even the SysOp!
- The following files should be in the AAL10 archive:
-
- SYSOP.DOC - this documentation
- AAL.EXE - Add-A-Line executable file
- AAL.CFG - Sample config file
- REGISTER.FRM - Registration form
- DORINFO1.DEF - Sample drop file to allow testing in local mode
-
-
- SETUP
-
- ANSI.SYS or it's equivalent is REQUIRED for Add-A-Line Graffiti Door v1.0!
-
- First extract the Add-A-Line Graffiti archive into your door directory
- (ie: C:\BBS\DOORS\AAL). AAL.CFG is an ASCII file that may be edited with any
- ascii editor to reflect your BBS parameters. The format is as follows:
-
- C:\BBS\DORINFO1.DEF - Complete path and filename to your BBS dropfile
- 9 are supported and listed below!
- The Midnight Caller - Your BBS name
- John - SysOp's first name
- Craven - SysOp's last name
- 00000000 - Registration code if registered otherwise any 8 digits
-
- To test Add-A-Line Graffiti Door in local mode, change the first line of the
- configuration file to read the dorinfo1.def file included with the archive
- (ie: C:\BBS\DOORS\AAL\DORINFO1.DEF) and call AAL AAL.CFG!
-
- Add-A-Line Graffiti Door supports the following BBS dropfiles:
-
- DORINFOx.DEF - For RA/QBBS/RBBS (replace x with node #)
- PDBOARD.SYS - For PCBoard systems using PCBOARD.SYS only
- USERS.SYS - For PCBoard systems using USERS.SYS
- CALLINFO.BBS - For Wildcat! systems prior to v3.2
- CHAIN.TXT - For WWIV systems
- SFDOORS.DAT - For Spitfire systems
- DOOR.SYS - For systems that support DOOR.SYS in standard 52 line GAP format
- USERINFO.DAT - For Wildcat! 3.x+ systems
- GTUSER.BBS - For GT Power systems
-
- Call the door with your door batch file and pass the config file on the command
- line.
-
- ie: CD\DOORS\AAL
- AAL AAL.CFG
- CD\BBS
- BBS
-
- Add-A-Line Graffiti also supports non-standard com port setups. COM 1-4 on the
- standard IRQ's - COM1/COM3=IRQ4 and COM2/COM4=IRQ3. If you want to use a
- non-standard IRQ, add the IRQ number after the configuration file name.
- If you wanted to use COM1 and IRQ5 the command line would be:
- AAL AAL.CFG /5. NO /x parameter is needed for standard IRQ's!
-
- BAD WORDS !
-
- At the SysOp's discretion is a "badword" checker called BADWORDS.TXT. This
- file is created when the program first runs if you don't create it yourself.
- If you wish to check for words you don't want entered in the Graffiti lines
- use your favorite ascii editor to create BADWORDS.TXT. In it enter each word
- you want to check for on a separate line, ie:
-
- BAD
- WORDS
- GO
- HERE
-
- That's all there is to it!
-
-
- REGISTRATION
-
- This door was compiled with Microsoft QuickBASIC 4.5 using Ted Freeman's
- DOORFRAME library. If you find this door entertaining and wish to use it
- on your BBS after a 30 day trial period, it must be registered. Simply fill
- out the REGISTER.FRM and mail it to the address on the form. Registration is
- $5.00 for version 1.0. Simply send your registration form and I will send
- you your registration code to be inserted in the configuration file.
- Thanks for your support!
