│ ■ FDIO ■ │ INTRODUCTiON│
└──────────┘ ── ─ ─ ── ─┘
This program creates two output ANSi screens telling the
INBOUND/OUTBOUND calls of your FRONT DOOR/INTERMAIL Front-End
mailer.
A friend asked me for a program just like this one, exactly
ANSi configured in this manner, therefore I made it!
But I am also making it available for others. The newer version is
much more attractive and now supports all BBS programs.
This program generates two screens, FDIO-IN.ANS and FDIO-OUT.ANS,
and can be configured to be shown to the user according to your BBS
software.
┌──────────┐ ── ──┐
│ ■ FDIO ■ │ WARRANTY │
└──────────┘ ─ ─ ── ─┘
This program has been tested and re-tested and is totally
harmless. Nevertheless, the author cannot be held
responsible for any undesired action caused by it. Use
it at your own risk.
This is program is spread under the FREEWARE ideal. You
may use it and spread it as far and as much as possible as
you wish. But only in its un-altered form and with the
FDIO.DOC included.
┌──────────┐ ─ ── ──┐
│ ■ FDIO ■ │ BUG FIXES │
└──────────┘ ─ ─ ── ─┘
The following bug fixes are included in FDIO 1.1:
o If time had only one digit, it would come out:
1:3 instead of 01:03.
o Was designed with RA in mind, and RA CLR SCR code and
ENTER code. Now can be used in any system.
o Created 2 files instead of one.
o Improved visual aspect.
┌──────────┐ ─ ── ──┐
│ ■ FDIO ■ │ EXECUTION │
└──────────┘ ─ ─ ── ─┘
You will probably want to run this program every time your
mailer calls/receives a call, or in anightly maintenace event.
In your BBS.BAT, make sure you have the following lines:
C:
CD\FDIO\
FDIO C:\FDIO\FDIO.CTL
────░────────────────
.EXE░Path and name to .CTL file
Now, the key element for success with FDIO is properly configuring
the .CTL file. Here is a example:
┌──[■] FDIO.CTL ∙─────────────────────────────────────┐
│ │
│ C:\BBS\TXTFILES\ │
│ NO │
│ 2 │
│ C:\FD\ │
│ │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
The first line is the EXACT PATH to where the ANSi's created are to
be placed. !NOTICE! That the directory has to have the "\" at the
end, or else FDIO will not function!
The second line is to determine whether or not you are using FRONT
DOOR mL. If you ARE using it, then place 'YES' in this line, ALL
CAPS, and therefore FDIO will look for INB?.HIS and OUTB?.HIS files
instead of the regular INBOUND.HIS and OUTBOUND.HIS. If you are
NOT using FRONT DOOR mL set this line to 'NO'. [mL stands for the
commercial version of FRONT DOOR, "MULTI-LINE"].
The third line is to determine the number of %TASK%'s you are
using, FDIO accepts up to 10 %TASK%'s. If you do NOT have FRONT
DOOR mL running, ignore this line!
The 4th and last line is to determine where the ?.HIS files are to
be found. Also notice that the "\" is to be added at the end, for
an accurate path! Usually 'C:\FD\' or 'C:\IM\.'
Then its up to your BBS program to choose a menu option where your
BBS will show the screen with a ENTER PROMPT when done.

└──────────┘ ─ ── ─┘
Special thanks goes out to Eric Staufer of THE CONCESSION
STAND in Florida (if you haven't called this BBS, do it
now!), for he was the one that totally customized this
program, and requested it from me. Well, here it is!
Oh yeah, changed it to look a little better.
