Hi, everyone.

I'm slowly (and I mean slowly! :) working on porting all of my doors to an OS/2
native version. I'm using Manndoor, which uses DOOR32.SYS for its drop file. I know that a few BBSes support that, such as Mystic and EleBBS. I know that Telegard can (I wrote a script for it) and from past experience, Maximus and Synchronet BBSes should be able to do it also with the proper script.

Does anyone else know what other BBS software might do that?

Later,
Sean

Sean,

TAG uses door.sys iIrr.

Replying to a message from Sean Dennis 1:18/200 to All,

About OS/2 native doors, On Thu Nov 24 2005

Check out Adept Sean I think it will handle doors as well.

The Docs says something about door.sys.

Hope this helps. Keep us posted.

We are a fine board trying to make it better.

TAG uses door.sys iIrr.

It's DOOR32.SYS - a completely different animal.

Here's my script for a DOOR32.SYS dropfile in Telegard/2:

; DOOR32.SYS script written by Sean Dennis for Telegard/2
; hausmaus@darktech.org - 1:18/200@Fidonet
; Written on 12 October 2004 at 2035 CDT
;
; This is public domain. However, I wouldn't suggest changing
; anything except the "D:\TG" part for it to work. :)
;
; This works here for me-I hope it works for you!
;
; Usage inside TG/2:
;4. Command -E - Execute Script
;5. Options "door32 d:\tg\doorbat\oracle.cmd ~CN"
;
;I pass the node number to the batch file for my multinode
;setup I run.
;
VARIABLE TEMP STRING
VARIABLE BBSDIR STRING "D:\TG\TEMP~CN\"
FILECREATE DOOR32.SYS
; Comm type (0=local, 1=serial, 2=telnet)
; ALWAYS KEEP THIS AT 1. Remember, if you're using SIO/VMODEM,
; you're using com ports, NOT telnet sockets. That's only under
; Win32. I'd recommend using the door's -L command line if you
; are going to run it locally under the BBS.
FILEPUT "1"
; Comm or socket handle
FILEPUT "~2P"
; Baud rate
FILEPUT "~CB"
; BBSID (software name and version)
FILEPUT "Telegard/2 ~SV"
; User record position (1-based)
; NOTE: I think TG uses 0-based record positions (it always
; reports mine as 0 as the sysop), so if you use this, be sure
; to increment the number by one.
FILEPUT "~UN"
; User's real name
FILEPUT "~UR"
; User's handle/alias
FILEPUT "~UH"
; User's security level
FILEPUT "~US"
; User's time left (in minutes)
FILEPUT "~CM"
; Emulation *See Below
FILEPUT "~UW"
; Current node number
FILEPUT "~CN"
FILECLOSE
MENU D-@*@

;* The following are values we've predefined for the emulation:
;
; 0 = Ascii
; 1 = Ansi
; 2 = Avatar
; 3 = RIP
; 4 = Max Graphics
;
; Avatar, RIP, and Max Graphics all have ANSI fallback support, so most door
; libraries that don't support those emulations can just use ANSI if emulation ; 2, 3, or 4 is encountered.
...as you can see, it's completely different from DOOR.SYS. :)

TAG can still use my DOS version of the door(s), of course. I'll never abandon
DOS users like some door authors have.

As I said to Rich previously, it's DOOR32.SYS, not DOOR.SYS. Two different dropfiles. I do believe that using REXX, however, I could get Adept to create a DOOR32.SYS file. But that's above and beyond my knowledge right now. :)

I use OS/2 Warp 4.52. I do have a legal copy of eCS 1.2 coming to me, but I've
no need for it (for now-might install it on a laptop later or something).
