 ^hHost path^n

  Where to find all ANSI, ASCII, bulletin screens and all other related
  files for the host mode.

  WELCOME         File shown when a user logs in
  SUPERVIS        Menu used for users with supervisor access
  NORMAL          Menu used for users with normal access
  BULLETIN        Bulletin menu, used for useful information
  GOODBYE         File shown when a user logs out

 ^hHost init^n

  You must not setup the modem to answer the modem automatically. The S0
  register holds the number of rings before answering - this should be set to
  0, then Terminate rather than the modem will answer for you.
  When Terminate gets the ring-string (RING), the answer-string (ATA) will be
  sent and Terminate waits for a carrier.

 ^hOpen system^n

  If the system is closed then only users defined in your setup will be
  allowed to logon. If you have an open system, all users that call will be
  able to log on - but only with normal user status and only able to up or
  download within specified directories. If a supervisor logs on, complete
  access will be granted whether the system is open or closed.

 ^hSend path^n

  Users that are not supervisors are only allowed to download from this
  directory.

 ^hReceive path^n

  Users that are not supervisors are only allowed to upload to this
  directory.

 ^hShut down pwd^n

  If a supervisor logs on, the supervisor can shut down Terminate and exit
  to DOS, so no one can call the host mode again.

 ^hAllow sound^n

  Make sounds when users disconnects, etc. You can still define the global
  time period, but to be sure never to make any sound here, turn it off.

 ^hRing count^n

  How many rings before answering, if you enter a 0 here then the phone
  will never be answered.

 ^hCallback wait^n

  To prevent someone from breaking your callback security.
  Waiting 90 seconds is normally the maximum time the phone company will
  hold the line if one of the parties hung up. Normally you would only
  use this function if you have really important information on your
  machine and want to be sure no-one guesses your password.
  The callback function will most likely be used by you, if you have a
  computer at work and are working from home.

 ^hFax receive^n

  Enable reception of faxes if you have an adaptive answer faxmodem.

  If this is enabled, Terminate will first check if it has received one
  of the default fax answer strings (+FCON, CED, FAX) and then also check
  the customised fax answer string that has been entered in the
  'fax answer field' if any.

  Adaptive answer:

  If your modem does not support adaptive answer, then you cannot accept
  both incoming faxes and data calls on the same line at the same time.
  To test if your modem support adaptive answer, enter in terminal mode:

  AT+FAE=1 + Enter  (Class 1)
  AT+FAA=1 + Enter  (Class 2)

  If your modem says ERROR or something other than OK, then your modem
  does not support adaptive answer. However, some modems have other ways
  of enabling this feature. In this case you will need to have a special
  fax initialisation string.

 ^hFax init^n

  Extra string to send to modem, to enable special features like other
  adaptive answer commands.

 ^hFax answer^n

  If your faxmodem responds with a string other than FAX, +FCON or CED,
  you must insert this different response in this field.
  Note: As long as 'FAX' is contained in the response string this will
  also work for example: 'CONNECT FAX'.

 ^hFax internal^n

  Use the internal fax receive in Terminate. Terminate can print out the
  pages if you enable the auto print in the fax configuration.

 ^hFax command^n

  The default is a fax program for ZyXEL modems, but there are other similar
  programs that can be called to receive a fax.

 ^hExpire^n

  For each user you can set an expiry date. If you want to use the
  host mode for subscriptions a certain action can be performed on the
  day that the subscription expire.

  ^hNothing^n

   No action will be taken against this user.

  ^hChange to normal security^n

   Change the security level to normal.

  ^hChange to new user defaults^n

   Change the user record to new user defaults.

  ^hDelete^n

   Set the delete flag on the users record.

 ^hNew user^n

  If you have an open system and allows new users, you can here setup
  the defaults which new users will get the first time they log on.

  ^hSecurity^n

   Look under user database for a full explanation.

  ^hTime per day^n

    How many minutes is a new user allowed to stay online per day.

  ^hExpire days^n

    How many default expiry days before performing expire action.
    Set to 0 will disable this function.

 ^hAfter user^n

   Run a program or batchfile whenever a user logs off. Eg if some
   processing needs to be done after a user uploads a special file.

    AFTERHST.BAT example, print a specific incoming file:

    IF EXITS C:\TERMINAT\DOWNLOAD\PRINTME.TXT GOTO PRINT
    GOTO END
    :PRINT
    COPY C:\TERMINAT\DOWNLOAD\PRINTME.TXT PRN
    :END

    (In DOS with no spooler, use PRINT.EXE to avoid out-of-paper problems)

  ╘══════════════╧══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛^n

  Here you can define what external programs users can call. Please note that
  Users can call external utilities on their level and all below. That means
  Co-Sysop's have access to Privileged and All users utilities as well and the
  sysops have of course access to everything.

 ^hPublic control^n

  The public menu is controlled by HOST\T-PUBLIC.BBS. In this file you
  can define which files you want to make directly available.
  Read T-PUBLIC.BBS for more information on the public menu.

 ^hHost device^n

  Which device to use for host mode.

 ^hDoor files^n

  When calling external programs from the host mode, Terminate will create
  DOOR.SYS and DORINFO1.DEF, these are standard formats which most BBS
  utilities understand. If you do not want these files to be create simply
  disable this function. The files will be created in the Terminate home
  directory. If you want to place the files in another directory simply
  create a batchfile that first copies the door file to a directory and
  then calls the external program. Please remember that many doors use
  a serial fossil driver like cFos or X00.

 ^hUsing the host mode^n

  The host mode in Terminate is fully built-in, so you will not have to
  setup anything at all. Just define the password for a user and you are
  ready to go. The host mode is a mini-bbs which will do the most important
  functions that a full BBS system will do.

  ANSI is detected automatically at login.

  You can use an ANSI editor, like TheDraw, to edit .ANS files.
  However if you do not want to bother about colours you can simply
  delete all .ANS files (DEL HOST\*.ANS) and Terminate will just use
  the .ASC files, which are normal ASCII files that can be edited with
  a normal editor.

  The host mode will use the following files:

  ^hWELCOME.ANS/ASC^n

  The welcome file shown at login.

  ^hNEWUSER.ANS/ASC^n

  File shown if you allow new users to log on.

  ^hEXPIRE.ANS/ASC^n

  File to be shown to users when their account expires.

  ^hNEWS.DOC^n

  Instructions to create your own news file.

  ^hNEWS.TXT, NEWS.ANS/ASC^n

  The data file for the news file. Use an editor to change.
  The host mode will check if the NEWS.TXT has changed and compile
  NEWS.ANS and NEWS.ASC. If you do not want a news file, simply
  delete NEWS.TXT, NEWS.ANS, NEWS.ASC.

  ^hNORMAL.ANS/ASC^n

  Menu used for Normal and Privileged users.

  ^hSUPERVIS.ANS/ASC^n

  Menu used for Co-Sysops and Supervisors.

  ^hBULLETIN.ANS/ASC^n

  Menu used for bulletin menu.

  ^hBULLE???.TXT^n

  Bulletins to be shown when the bulletin number is entered by a user.
  BULLE001.TXT will be shown when a user enters 1. Bulletins can be
  defined between 0-999.

  ^hGOODBYE.ANS/ASC^n

  File to show when the user logs off.

  ^hT-FILES.BBS^n

  Area file definition, define up to 100000 file areas. Edit file
  using a normal editor.

  ^hT-USERS.BBS^n

  Datafile containing the user's information.

  ^hT-HOLD.BBS^n

  Text file containing all the files that are on hold for users.

  ^hT-LAST.BBS^n

  Datafile containing the last callers to your system.
