- REM ┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
- REM │ This is the batch file which controls the WR-BBS program. Although │
- REM │ WR-BBS can be run from the command line, without a file like this │
- REM │ one, the use of WR.BAT is STRONGLY urged. There are several reasons │
- REM │ why WR-BBS can terminate: │
- REM │ │
- REM │ - Scheduled termination to run an event. │
- REM │ │
- REM │ - Normal termination due to shutdown request from keyboard. │
- REM │ │
- REM │ - Unexpected termination due to an error. │
- REM │ │
- REM │ For each of the possible termination reasons, WR-BBS sets the DOS │
- REM │ ERRORLEVEL to a specific value before it actually terminates. This │
- REM │ batch file uses that information to branch to an appropriate label │
- REM │ and invoke another program (for an event or door), restart WR-BBS │
- REM │ (if termination was due to an error), or return to the operating │
- REM │ system prompt (in case of normal shutdown). │
- REM │ │
- REM │ Please see the WR-DOS documentation for a detail description of the │
- REM │ ERRORLEVEL values that WR-BBS sets for each type of termination. │

- REM
- REM If the batch file has just been started, or if an error has caused
- REM WR-BBS to terminate, control will be branched to the label STARTBBS
- REM which appears below. When control is passed to that label, WR.BAT
- REM does the following:
- REM
- REM It runs the utility program WDELAY, which gives the local SysOp
- REM a chance to abort the startup (or restart) if desired. If the
- REM startup (or restart) is happpening "unattended", such as after
- REM a power failure, or system error, when nobody is at the local
- REM console, then after 15 seconds, WDELAY starts the program by
- REM terminating with an ERRORLEVEL of 0.
- REM
- REM WR.BAT is designed so that an ERRORLEVEL of zero at this point
- REM will continue with the start (or restart) of WR-BBS. If the
- REM SysOp presses ESC at the local keyboard while WDELAY is running,
- REM then WDELAY terminates, setting the ERRORLEVEL to 1. WR.BAT
- REM will then react by branching to to the FINISHED label, without
- REM starting WR-BBS.
- REM
- REM If the local SysOp presses ENTER while WDELAY is running, then
- REM WDELAY terminates immediately, setting the ERRORLEVEL to zero.
- REM WR.BAT reacts by starting WR-BBS, just as if a default timeout
- REM had occurred in WDELAY.
- REM
- REM For more detailed information on WDELAY, please read WDELAY.DOC.

- REM
- WRBBS
- REM
- REM WR-BBS has been started. When WR-BBS terminates, the following
- REM lines will examine the ERRORLEVEL and branch control to the
- REM appropriate label in WR.BAT.
- REM
- IF ERRORLEVEL 100 GOTO STARTBBS
- IF ERRORLEVEL 84 GOTO RUNEVENT
- IF ERRORLEVEL 1 GOTO STARTBBS
- REM
- REM An ERRORLEVEL of zero means that WR-BBS terminated normally, in
- REM repsonse to an ALT-Q (quit) request from the keyboard.
- REM
- IF ERRORLEVEL 0 GOTO FINISHED
- :RUNEVENT
- REM
- REM If control branches to the RUNEVENT label, this means that WR-BBS
- REM terminated with an ERRORLEVEL between 84 and 99. In WRCONFIG.SYS,
- REM you can optionally schedule up to 16 events that WR-BBS executes
- REM after a configured time each day or on certain days. Each event
- REM can be set as a "shell" event or a "terminate" event. When a shell
- REM event runs, WR.BAT plays no part in the control of that event, since
- REM WR-BBS stays loaded in memory and simply shells to the operating
- REM system to run the event program. When the event program finishes,
- REM WR-BBS resumes normal operation.
- REM
- REM A "terminate" event, however, is executed much differently. When a
- REM terminate event occurs, WR-BBS completely terminates, and sets the
- REM ERRORLEVEL to a value between 86 and 99. The actual value that is
- REM set, depends on what you have configured in WRCONFIG.SYS. Please
- REM read the WR-BBS documentation for detailed information on setting
- REM up terminate events.
- REM
- REM IMPORTANT: If the terminate event runs another batch file (outside
- REM of WR.BBS), you must do one of the following, so that
- REM WR-BBS will automatically restart when the event is
- REM finished:
- REM
- REM 1. Use the DOS CALL keyword to call the other batch
- REM file from WR.BAT. Using CALL allows control to
- REM return to WR.BAT after the other batch file has
- REM completed. Without the CALL command, the parent
- REM batch file (this one, WR.BAT) no longer has control
- REM and the system will sit idle after the event.
- REM
- REM 2. At the end of the other batch file (the one that
- REM runs the event), restart WR.BAT by changing back to
- REM the WR-BBS home directory and then running (without
- REM a CALL) the batch file WR.BAT.
- REM
- REM Attention is necessary to ensure that you do not CALL
- REM or run WR.BAT while WR.BAT still has control. This will
- REM cause various unexpected problems.
- REM
- REM (Put your event's command lines in place of the dummy names below)
- REM
- IF ERRORLEVEL 98 CALL DUMMY1.BAT
- IF ERRORLEVEL 95 SAMPLE2.EXE
- IF ERRORLEVEL 87 DUMMY3.BAT
- REM
- REM Do not remove the line below. It will restart WR-BBS after an event
- REM is called on one the above lines, or if there is (erroneously) no
- REM definition for the particular ERRORLEVEL.
