-
- WETDOOR5.EXE..... Weather Forecasting Door Program
- DOOR.CFG......... A SAMPLE Door.Cfg file (edit to your needs)
- WEATHER.BAT...... A SAMPLE batch file for calling up WETDOOR5.exe
- *.ANS............ Display files - MUST BE IN SAME DIRECTORY AS WETDOOR5
- *.ASC............ Display files - MUST BE IN SAME DIRECTORY AS WETDOOR5
-
-
- HOW TO USE WEATHERCASTER:
- -------------------------
-
- 1. To run Wetdoor5.exe locally, use this on your command line:
-
- WETDOOR5 LOCAL
-
- 2. ALWAYS include the name of your .cfg file when calling up Wetdoor5 as an
- online door:
-
- WETDOOR5 DOOR.CFG
-
- 3. For non standard IRQs, you can use this for an example:
-
- WETDOOR5 DOOR.CFG /5
-
- * PLEASE don't write and ask what IRQs to use on your non-standard systems.
- I've run comport 1 for 5 years and I have no idea in the world what your IRQs
- or system setup might be. That's -your- responsibility to know the setup of
- your system. Thanks.
-
- 4. It is highly recommended you use the internal communications routines but
- if you must you can call wetdoor5 with a fossil driver. For Example:
-
- WETDOOR5 DOOR.CFG /FD
-
- Notice to use the fossil driver you put a /FD on the command line.
-
- * On some systems I had reports you can't use the sysop function keys when a
- user is online and you use a fossil.
-
- * PLEASE NOTE: -Only- use the /FD command if the door's internal
- communications routines don't work on your system. The door utilizes it's
- own communications routines which are more reliable then the fossil driver
- selection available with the door. Remember- even if your mailer and / or BBS
- requires a fossil to run, this door doesn't require a fossil.
-
- * I've had reports of conflicts with QEMM interrupts causing errors (I HATE
- Qemm :( ). To get around this, if you run QEMM and can't get the door to
- work, use /QEMM on the command line. This will bypass the advanced debug
- feature. For example: wetdoor5 local /qemm
- However, I'm running DesqView and Qemm with no problems, if you do have
- problems try increasing your memory or toggle some of your settings.
-
- * On 486DX Cpu's the math co-processors can't handle the floating point math.
- To fix this in your autoexec.bat file put in SET NO87=ON .
-
-
- ABOUT YOUR CONFIG FILE
- --------------
- Your config file is ascii file that has on the first line the
- path to your BBS drop file AND the name of your BBS drop file.
- On the second line is the name of your BBS. On the third line
- is your First name and on your Fourth line is your last name.
- (WHEN REGISTERING, THE MUST BE EXACTLY LIKE YOU REGISTERED THE
- PROGRAM)
-
- Example .cfg file:
-
- c:\quickbbs\dorinfo1.def
- The Frontier BBS
- Jerry
- Woody
-
- DOOR.CFG =MUST= reside in the same directory as WETDOOR5.EXE!
-
- WETDOOR5 MUST BE RUN FROM IT'S OWN DIRECTORY; NOT THROUGH A PATH STATEMENT,
- ETC.
-
- ABOUT RUNNING THE DOOR
- ----------------------
-
- WETDOOR5 can be run from your bbs with either a shell or drop to dos,
- if your memory is large enough. For example, to run it as a type 7
- shell to dos for quickbbs the command line would be:
-
- command.com /c WEATHER.bat or
- command.com *C Weather.bat
-
- PLEASE SEE THE ENCLOSED WEATHER.BAT FOR EXAMPLE.
-
- PLEASE NOTE. THIS IS NOT FREEWARE BUT SHAREWARE. IF YOU
- USE IT THEN -PAY- FOR IT. If you don't you might save a few
- bucks now but in a few years when the shareware system doesn't work
- and most of the door authors have gone commercial you'll be
- wishing you'd registered your shareware material. 'Nuff said.
