- HOW TO SETUP StoBBS:
- -------------------
- StoBBS is very simple to setup. All you have to do is
- run at the command line: 'StoBBS Setup'. Do note type the " ' "
- character. It is just shown their for explanatory purposes. As
- far as the configuration goes, first setup the bbsnames, then the
- comport. If you are registered you then have to setup the default
- system to load. Ex BBS Name Screen:
-
- 1. PCBoard (R) 14.5a
- 2. Telegard 2.7
- 3. WildCat
- 4. Not Set
- (MORE TO MENU, BUT NOT SHOWN)
-
-
-
-
- etc, etc. Each bbs number, such as 1 = PCBoard (R) 14.5a
- is the errorlevel that StoBBS will exit with. If the carrier is
- lost or isn't found it will exit with error level 253.
-
- Example follows in next section.
-
-
- HOW TO USE STOBBS:
- -------------------
- Here is an example batch files:
- :RUNSTOB
- D:
- CD\FD
- RUNFD.BAT
- C:

-
- IF ERRORLEVEL 253 goto nocarr rem ERR. LEVEL 253 means that
