    The door should be easy enough to set up on its own, particularly if
you're familiar with door operation under Wildcat!  If you do have any
problems, you can reach me on The Parole Board BBS or via FIDO.

SUPPORT:

     Since this is a FREE door, there is NO voice support available for
this door.  If it runs on your system, fine.  If not, keep trying, it
should.


NOTE:  This program was compiled with 80286 specific code.  It WILL NOT
run on an 8088/8086 CPU.

                             ____________

   You may make this file available for downloading from your BBS or you may
   upload it to any BBS of your choice, provided that you do not make any
   changes to the contents of the archive (ZIP file). The archive and its
   individual contents may not be used by any service that charges any money
   whatsoever, without the written permission of the author.

        This ZIP file was created using the -AV function of PKZIP.  If
        my AV is missing then this file may not be complete or has been
        tampered with.  Complete and current editions of this program
        are always available for D/L on The Parole Board BBS.  If the -AV
        is missing please complain to your sysop to stop the practice of
        removing AV's as this is your assurance from the programmer that
        the file is complete and virus free.

INSTALLATION:

    Installation of TORC is an easy straightforward operation.  You
will need to create a directory to hold the TORC files.  For
simplicity, we will use the directory "C:\DOOR\TORC" in this
documentation.  Once you have created "\TORC", unZIP the TORCx.ZIP
archive into that directory.
You should then create a sub directory called "C:\DOOR\TORC\SCREENS".
UnZIP the file "SCREENS.ZIP" into this sub-directory.


   You will then need to edit the TORC.CFG file(s) to suit your
individual WildCat! setup.  You MUST use an ASCii editor to edit the CFG
file at all times.  Some word processors leave hidden control codes that
could cause TORC to die a horrible and ugly death.  The TORC.CFG
file must contain 4 lines.

C:\WC30\WCWORK\NODE1\USERINFO.DATĿ
C:\PCB\USERS.SYS                   <- Path to User file.  I recommend
C:\SF\SFDOORS.DAT                     using USERS.SYS for PCBoard and
C:\BBS\DORINFOx.DEF                   USERINFO.DAT for Wildcat!
C:\BBS\CALLINFO.BBS               
C:\BBS\GTUSER.DAT                 
C:\BBS\DOOR.SYS                   
C:\BBS\PCBOARD.SYS                
C:\BBS\TRIBBS.SYS                
The Parole Board BBS                <- BBS Name
Dennis                              <- SysOp's first name
Maidon                              <- SysOp's last name
              ===========================================
NOTE:     There are 2 additional lines necessary when using GTUSER.BBS.
          Since this file does not provide the Comport and Node number,
          You need to add the to the CFG file on lines 5 and 6.  All
          other lines in the CFG file move up accordingly.   Instead of
          4 lines, you will have 6 lines.

Line 1    This is where TORC will look to find USERINFO.DAT.  It MUST
          always point to the NODEx directory and NOT the \WC30
          directory.  You must use USERINFO.DAT, do not use DOOR.SYS for
          a WC! BBS.

Line 2    Your BBS name

Line 3    Your First Name or the name you go by on the BBS (DO NOT use
          "SYSOP")

Line 4    Your last name

     Make sure that all your CFG files contain 4 lines.  If you are
     operating a Multi-Node setup, you must have a separate CFG file for
     each node.  Each CFG file mus also have unique name such as:

     BBS1.CFG   BBS2.CFG   BBS3.CFG
                            ---------------

NOTE:  You may now use one (1) CFG file for multi-node by using the
environment variables.

When specifying the location of the system file on line 1 of the doors .CFG
file, you may use the environment variables %pcbdrive%, %pcbdir%, %pcbnode%,
and %wcnodeid%. Some examples:
 PCBoard: 
   USERS.SYS in C:\PCB           - %pcbdrive%%pcbdir%\USERS.SYS
   USERS.SYS in C:\PCB\NODE1     - %pcbdrive%%pcbdir%\NODE%pcbnode%\USERS.SYS

 Wildcat!:
   USERINFO.DAT in C:\WC30\WCWORK\NODE1   - C:\WC30\WCWORK\NODE%WCNODEID%

Non-PCBoard systems may use the PCB environment variables by setting them
in either AUTOEXEC.BAT or in the batch that runs the door. For example:
 SET PCBDRIVE=C:
 SET PCBDIR=\BBSDIR
 SET PCBNODE=1

NOTE:  See the enclosed archive, "TORC.PCB" for details on installing
TORC on PCBoard v15.0.
                             --------------
Create the CFG file(s) for you particular BBS.  You will also need a DOORx.BAT
to run the door.  This one is simple.

@ECHO OFF
CD \DOOR\TORC
TORC BBS.CFG /5  or TORC BBS.CFG /%WCIRQID%
              
 
  If you are running non-Standard Com ports on your BBS, you will need to pass
 the proper IRQ to the door.  It doesn't hurt to pass the IRQ even if they are
 standard.  If a user enters the door and it just sits there acting sort of
 stupid, it's probably looking for the correct IRQ.  Always pass it on the
 command line and there will be no question.  Some networks have a problem
 using the "/" symbol.  TORC will now accept an asterisk "*" in place of
 the "/".  You may also use the environment variable in the DOORx.BAT file to
 pass info to the door.

TORC BBS%WCNODEID%.CFG /%WCIRQID%

Make sure you DO have the variables set if you use this method.

NOTE: TORC supports COM 1-4 on the standard IRQ's - COM1/COM3 = IRQ4 and
      COM2/COM4 = IRQ3. If you wish to use a non-standard IRQ, add the IRQ
      number after the configuration filename. Let's assume your Door is
      called FOOBAR and you want to use COM1 and IRQ5. The command line
      passed to your Door would be:

        FOOBAR FOOBAR.CFG /5

      The /5 tells TORC to use IRQ5 rather than the standard IRQ4 that
      is normally used with COM1. No /x parameter is needed for the standard
      IRQ's. TORC supports IRQs 1 - 15.


Fossil Driver Support
---------------------
TORC supports the use of Fossil drivers.  To tell your Door to use the
Fossil driver instead of the standard COM ports, just put /FD on the command
line when running the door. For example:

     MYDOOR MYDOOR.CFG /FD
     MYDOOR MYDOOR.CFG *FD

indicates that a Fossil driver is present and should be used. If no Fossil
driver is detected, TORC will print a message to that effect and exit
the door gracefully.

    If you have WC! set up to TERMINATE on Doors, you will need to add a
    line to reload the BBS.  I'm not sure about the exact way this is
    set up since I do not use this method.  Check your WC! Manual.

     Wildcat! will pick up the [G]oodbye from the door as a normal
     logoff.  It is possible that Livecat! will see this as a Drop
     Carrier and not pass it to WC! as a normal logoff.  No damage is
     done.

NOTE:  You may edit any of the screens included in this archive for your
       personal use.  DO NOT distribute them in the TORC.ZIP archive.
       You may distribute them separately.  I recommend using TheDraw to
       edit the screens.  They should remain the same physical size as
       the originals.  Be sure to delete any trailing blank lines at the
       bottom of the screens.
