- and shareware is: Registration is still required, but the trial
- period for the door is virtually indefinate. You may freely
- distribute the SHAREWARE version of User TOP TEN List as long as you
- do not modify them from their original format.

- INTRODUCTION
- ─══════════─
-
- Unregistered and Registered Versions of User TOP TEN List have
- the following built-in features:
-
- ∙ Fully supports high speed modems and locked serial ports.
-
- ∙ Built in ANSI terminal emulator. No need to have ANSI.SYS
- loaded in memory.
-
- ∙ Supports the two most popular Drop File types (door.sys and
- dorinfoX.def).
-
- ∙ The program has run successfully for many hours multinode
- with no problems... The authors do not run multinode boards
- currently but will try to help in the event of any problem.
-
-
- Registered Versions of User TOP TEN List have the following
- advantages: [Being SysOp's ourselves, we tried not to limit
- the program too much, just enough to encourage you to
- register the program.]
-
- ∙ Can have up to 65535 topics (theoretically)
- [unreg'd vers can only have 10]
-
- ∙ Eliminates the pause at the beginning of the door.
- [You will find out what we mean soon enough. :) ]
-
- ∙ Ability to delete the first topic and its responses.
-
- ∙ Discounts on future products.
-
- ∙ If you ever write a paper for English class and want it
- proofread beforehand send it in and Robert will do it for
- you. If you don't get an A, it's his fault <kidding!!!>

- INSTALLING TOP TEN
- ─════════════════─
-
- Unpack it into any directory of your choice, although we
- suggest you give it a directory all of its own.
-
- After you have finished unpacking then modify the CONFIG.DOR
- file with a text editor of your choice (Perhaps EDIT.COM that
- comes with DOS 5 or up). The format of this file is very
- simple:
-
- Line 1: BBS Drop File Type
-
- Samples: Doorinfo
- Doorsys
-
-
-
- Line 2: Path and FILENAME to drop file
-
- Samples: D:\RA\DORINFO1.DEF
- C:\SBBS\NODE1\DOOR.SYS
-
-
- Line 3: Locked Baud Rate, or 0 for none (more info in CONFIG.DOR)
-
-
- Line 4: Your BBS Name, exactly how you will eventually write it on
- your registration form.
-
- Samples: Virtual Insanity World Headquarters
- The PhilTheist BBS
-
-
- Line 5: Your favourite brand of soap <kidding!!!>
- <Only four lines...easy huh?>
-
-
- After you have finished modifying the CONFIG.DOR file then you
- can add TOP TEN to your BBS's Doors Section. Make sure it is
- executed from the directory that it resides in.
-
- Example (The way I have it on VIWHQ, running RemoteAccess 2.02+)
-
- C:\TOPTEN\TOPTEN.BAT
- -------------------------------
- C:
- CD\TOPTEN
- TOPTEN
- -------------------------------
-
- And on my Doors Menu:
- --------------------------------------------------
- Display: [^T^]op Ten List
- Action: Execute a subprogram (type 7)
- Optional Data: *C /C C:\TOPTEN\TOPTEN.BAT *M
- HotKey: 'T'
- AutoExec: No
- Colour: [03]
- etc... (Everything else is default.)
- --------------------------------------------------
-
-
-
- Example (The way Robert has it on PhilTheist, Synchronet 2.10 reg'd)
-
- On my Doors Section:
- --------------------------------------------------
- Name: Top Ten Door
- Internal Code: TOPTEN
- StartUp Directory: C:\TOPTEN
- Command Line: TOPTEN
- Multiple Concurrent Users: Yes
- Swap BBS out of memory: Yes
- BBS Drop File Type: GAP DOOR.SYS
- Place Drop File In: Node Directory
- etc... (Everything else is default.)
- --------------------------------------------------
-
-
