          SFDOORS.DAT
     
          This door will also run under Desqview.



Installation Of The Door :
==========================

     Step One :
     ----------
     
     First create a directory for the program and place all the files into
     that directory.

     i.e.  C:\WILDCAT\DOOR\MATCH     (whatever your DOOR directory will be)

     
     Step Two :
     ----------

     Use the install program to configure the configuration file to meet 
     your specifications.


     Contents Of The Configuration File :
     ------------------------------------

          Line one is the path to your dropfile.

          Line two is the name of your BBS

          Line three is your name that you use on your
          BBS.

          Line four is where you specify what type of BBS software you
          have.

          Line five is where you specify if you are running at lock
          baud or not.  If you are running lock baud then enter the 
          baud rate....ie 9600 or 19200 or 38400.  Enter 0 for    
          none.

          Line six is to tell if you wish to have page available or not.
          1 = YES   0 = NO

          Line seven is the total time you wish a user to be on the door
          at one given time.

          Line eight is how many times a user may play the game per day.

          Line nine is the IRQ information for comm port 3

          Line ten is the IRQ information for comm port 4

          Line eleven is where you will specify the ASCII Bulletin path
          and filename.

          Line twelve is where you will specify the ANSI Bulletin path and
          filename.

     Here is the completed file :
     ----------------------------

            C:\WILDCAT
            The Lighthouse BBS
            Danny Davis
            WC3
            19200 or 0 for none
            1
            30
            5
            03E8 3
            02E8 4
            C:\WILDCAT\BULL\BULL1.ANS
            C:\WILDCAT\BULL\BULL1.ASC


BBS Batch Files :
=================

     WILDCAT DOOR#.BAT :
     -----------------------

          DOOR#.BAT
          CD\WILDCAT\DOOR\SOL
          FIFTEEN
          15BULL
          CD\WILDCAT
          CAT

     QuickBBS & DORINFO#.DEF  (a Type 15 for QuickBBS) :
     ---------------------------------------------------

     You may specify up to nine different DORINFO#.DEF's by using the 
     install program.

     D:
     CD\DOORS\MATCH
     FIFTEEN
     15BULL
     C:
     CD\QBBS
     GOTO RESTART
     

     To run a type 7 (for QuickBBS),  simply put the MATCH.BAT file in the
     QuickBBS directory,  using "*C /C MATCH.BAT" in the optional data line in
     the type 7 menu.  (there are other ways to do it,  this is the easiest).


     GAP and PCBOARD :
     -----------------

     C:
     CD\DOOR\MATCH
     FIFTEEN
     15BULL
     CD\GAP
     GAP


    Maintenance :
    -------------

        Also enclosed is a maintenance file that needs to be ran
        once a day to keep the player.dat file clean.  By passing 
        a number value from 8-30 you can specify how many days you 
        will allow a user to stay in the door before being deleted.

        i.e. "MAINT 17"   this allows 17 days before a player is  
                          deleted for non-use

    15BULL :
    --------
        This file can be ran each time the door is exited or as a
        nightly event. I recommend after the door exits.  It will
        make a ANSI and a ASCII Bulletin from the information you 
        specify in your installation module.

    Page and Comm Control Files :
    -----------------------------
         Read the PAGE.CTL and configure it to meet your needs.

    Local Mode :
    ------------
         To run the game in LOCAL mode just type /LOCAL after the 
         FIFTEEN.EXE on the command line "FIFTEEN /LOCAL".



    Multi - Line BBS :
    ------------------
         Well this is a rather simple task.  When you run the install
         program you can pick upto 4 different configuration files.
         To run this door as a multi door all you need to do is place
         the following statement:

                FIFTEEN FIFTEEN1.CNF

             And so on for the rest of the configuration files.  The
             reason for this is so you may specify the different
             LOCKBAUD rates for each node.


                             Support BBS :
                             -------------
