SCRIPIT.DOC

Not much has been prepared in the way of docs for  scripit.


But it is the latest in several ways that have been tested to simplify
the setup of Bobcat and other similar wattcp programs.



When you run the batch file to make a new or updated installation,
scripit reads a file called scripit.def in the config directory.

This is where all answers to setup queries are saved.

The following examples are for Bobcat , but may be easily revised
for any wattcp program and adapted for others. Examples for Minuet,
Minitelnet and Ftp07 are included in bcatdial.bat but rem'd out.

The command line for scripit is  <scripit bcatdial> where bcatdial is
the first part before the . of the batch file to be created. There must
be a corresponding template file bcatdial.std in the config directory.

Scripit copies the template file bcatdial.std to the c:\dialnet directory
naming it bcatdial.bat. It then uses the program  xchange to change the
variables in the  batch file template according to the entries in
scripit.def.

It then checks for an existing netdial.scr, finds a netdial.std in the
config directory and creates a new netdial.scr . The previous netdial.scr
is always saved as netdial.sav in case you want to return.

Note:
To modify the standard setup to permanently revise it for your provider:

1. If you are modifying netdial.scr and want to make a setup that works
in all future updates, make the modifications to \config\netdial.std instead.

2. If you modify bcatdial.bat and want to make a setup that works on
 all future updates, modify \config\bcatdial.std instead.


Scripit is freeware. Use it as you wish. Let me know if you have used it for
other applications and how.

Thanks to Charles Hallenbeck and Ralf Mueller for the ideas and debugging
suggestions.
