THE RED-LINE STATION MICHAEL LEE 0000001 F:\TAPE2BBS BBS2TAPE C:\BAT\ANYNAME.BAT F:\TAPE YES YES 12 YES COM2 :---------------------- Delete this line and all below before running ******* ALL LINES IN THIS FILE MUST BE IN UPPER CASE ******* * In unregistered version, UNREGISTERED VERSION is diplayed in place of BBS NAME and PLEASE REGISTER NOW in place of SYSOP NAME. Also, MULTIPLE DOWNLOADS will not function until the program is registered. Line #1: Your BBS Name Line #2: Your Name Line #3: Your Registration Number (Registered Version) Line #4: Directory where you want restored files to go. Remember, your callers must have access to this directory to download files. Line #5: Volume name on your tape. As of this release, it is required that all volume backups be made from the same directory name. (In a future release, it is hoped that this will no longer be necessary.) Line #6: Drive/Path/Name of batch file used to restore files. This batch file will be appended to by the program to allow for multiple restores. If you were running two or more nodes you could have two different batch files; one for callers on the computer with the drive, and one for folks on other nodes which cannot access the hardware directly. For these callers, you could set up the second batch file as an offline restore to be run during a nightly event. Line #7: Drive/path to TAPEMENU.BBS & FILES#.BBS Line #8: Y = Run as an offline door where files are appended in batch. N = Run as online door where files are restored immediately. Line #9: Y = Will allow the caller to restore multiple files per access to the door. (registered version only) N = Only allows caller to restore one file per access to the door. Line #10: Number/Letter of Files#.bbs file to be displayed from main menu (TAPEMENU.BBS). This can be any number from 0-9 and A-Z. If enabled by placing on this line, the caller will be able to view that directory listing. Line #11: Yes/No as to whether to allow redirection of tape drive software. See #12 for more detail. Line #12: Redirection of tape drive software output. For Sysops using Doorway to run TAPE2BBS, this feature allows the porting of the tape drive software output to any valid Dos device. It could be sent out the ComPort (Com2 for example), send to a file (C:\BBS\LASTTAPE.TXT), or sent to NULL for those Sysops who do not wish the caller to see the tape drive software output.
