Whats new in Doorway version 2.22.
You can use the SYS parameter with non-standard com ports now by using
DOORWAY SYS:XXXX:I, where XXXX is the 4 digit hex address of the com port
and the I is the irq.
A switch to reboot on carrier loss has been added. It is the /RB switch.
If you are running under Desqview, you should use th /19 switch if using the
/RB switch.
/T: switch can now trap more than one character per switch.
Direct screen writes will now always start at the top of the screen.
Added Digiboard support. Use COMXD or SYSD to indicate you are usign a
Digiboard. (The X is the com port number)
Added a /J switch to control scrolling. Default is 5. Basically this is
the number of lines which have to match after a scroll for DOORWAY to scroll
the remote screen.
DOORWAY announces its entrance with an ESC[=255h and it's exit with a ESC[=255l
now. This allows other com programs to automatically enter and exit DOORWAY
mode.
Fixed where DOORWAY will now work with DOS EDIT and other programs which
required an INT 9 to read the keyboard buffer.
Added 16550 support to both DOORWAY and DWCOMM.
Fixed problem where high intensity was being interpreted as blinnk on some
programs.
Fixed problem where DOORWAY would not get turned back on by DSZ if using a
non standard port.
Added a /NCD switch. This switch is for no carrier delay. It is intended for
null modems where a short CD drop is used to terminate the connection.
Changed the shell to dos to force command.com to use the full environment size.
Added the ability for DOORWAY to stuff the keyboard buffer with a definable
character sequence when carrier is lost. This uses the /*: switch.
Added tracking of locked files, so DOORWAY will unlock them if aborting
externally.
Added the ability for DOORWAY to read a configuration file. Parameters
can be in the configuration file or on the command line.
Added a /FC switch to make DOORWAY ignore carrier loss.
