FOSSIL is an acronym for "Fido/Opus/SEAdog Standard Interface Layer".
GETTING STARTED
Installing X00.SYS for use with PCZ.EXE
The only file that you actually needs is X00.SYS.
Copy X00.SYS to the root directory of your boot drive or diskette.
If you are going to use standard comm ports, either COM1 or COM2
on a PC/XT/AT, or COM1 through COM8 on a PS/2, then
add the following line to your CONFIG.SYS file:
DEVICE=X00.SYS E R=1024 T=1024
If you wish to have more than one communications port active
simultaneously, then modify the command line to include the
number of simultaneous active ports you wish to support. For
example, if you are using DESQview and you wish to run a BBS in
two different windows, then add the following line to your
CONFIG.SYS file:
DEVICE=X00.SYS E 2 R=1024 T=1024
It should be understood that the above command tells X00 how many
ports that are to be used simultaneously, not which ports. PCZ
may specify 2 serial ports in any order.
For a complete explanation of the features provided by X00.SYS
please refer to X00USERS.DOC
X00.SYS may be downloaded from the Programmer's Corner under it's
proper file name X00V122A.ZIP or from RENEX BBS 703-494-1713
