ALARM

This switch enables and disables the HOST speaker.  When OFF a BELL (^G) will
be sent to the remote, but will not sound on the HOST.  When ON, the Bell
will sound on both the HOST and REMOTE sytems.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

BOTTOM LINE

This switch allows you to configure DOORWAY for better compatibility with the
communication program being used on the REMOTE end.  IT has several options:

    EXCLUDE TOP LINE and EXCLUDE BOTTOM LINE allow the the remote to display
    only in 24 lines.  This is necessary if the remote has a status line.
    Since the HOST will have 25 lines, you will need to decide whether to
    elimiate the top or the bottom line.

    EXCLUDE LOWER RIGHT CHARACTER.  Some com programs do not interpret the
    ANSI do not wrap line code.  This causes the remote screen to scroll when
    the bottom line is written, when it should not.  When this happens, updates
    on the remote will not completely overwrite the previous screen.  When
    this switch is set the bottom right corner of the remote screen will not
    update on the remote system.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

COMMAND.COM

Normally when DOORWAY loads a program COMMAND.COM is not loaded.  This save
a small amount of memory.  However for a DROP to DOS remote session, or if
you want to run a batch file from DOORWAY, COMMAND.COM must be loaded.

   DOS means that DOORWAY will load and execute your command intrepretor.
   A drop to DOS will be performed.

   VIA means that the command intepretor will be sued to load and execute
   the program file.  This may be a batch file, or the program itself may
   require a secondary command interpretor to work properly.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

DISABLE DISK WRITES

If you disable disk writes then the program running under DOORWAY will not
be able to write to the disk.  This is normally used for security.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

EXIT MESSAGE

This is the name of a file created with a ASCII or ANSI editor.  The file
will be opened, and sent to the remote system upon termination of the program
DOORWAY has loaded.  Pauses can be put into the exit message by starting
the line where you want the pause with a $:.  Note that the $: MUST be preceded
by a carriage return/line feed for it to work properly.

FAST

This is used when DOORWAY is running an action game.  It should never be used
for anything else.  It will not move the cursor until there is a character is
written.  The purpose is to prevent wasting time moveing the cursor if nothing
gets written.  Except for action games in BIOS mode this switch should never
be used.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

GRAPHICS

This refers to ANSI GRAPHICS.  ANSI will be used if you set this switch on,
or if you are in direct video mode.  If the remote terminal cannot support
ANSI or VT100 emulation then this should be set to OFF.  If you leave it blank
DOORWAY will setting in the DOOR.SYS or PCBOARD.SYS file.

ANSI is required for colors and for cursor addressing.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

HALT SHELLS TO DOS

This switch will prevent the comspec (COMMAND.COM) from being loaded by
the application.  It should be used for security if the application program
has a shell to DOS capability, and you do not want your users to have access
to DOS.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

INITIAL WELCOME

This is the name of a file created with a ASCII or ANSI editor.  The file
will be opened, and sent to the remote system upon execution of DOORWAY.

Pauses can be put into the exit message by starting the line where you want
the pause with a $:.  Note that the $: MUST be preceded by a carriage
return/line feed for it to work properly.

A password may be added by starting a line with a P:PASSWORD, where PASSWORD
is the password you want the user to enter.

A menu can be created by starting a line with a M:.

IE:
M:Enter your selection:

Refer to the documentation for additional information on using a menu.

SCROLL THRESHOLD

When in direct screen mode, DOORWAY compares the remote screen to the HOST
screen.  If more than 5 lines can be matched by scrolling the screen, DOORWAY
will scroll the screen, then fill in the lines which have changed.  If the
threshold is set low, the remote scroll when there is no apparent reason for
it to do so.  If it is too high, the remote screen may be repainted entirely
when a scroll and a couple of lines could have been painted.  This switch
changes the thresold from 5 lines.  25 will never scroll.

KEYBOARD TIMEOUT

This is the number of seconds DOORWAY will allow with no keyboard input
from the HOST or REMOTE keyboard.  After this time has elapsed with no input
DOORWAY will terminate the program and exit.  Default is 255 seconds, and
0 will disable keyboard timeouts.

INSERT EXTRA LINFEEDS

Some older ANSI.SYS drivers would do a blind scroll.  This is usually best
fixed by using ANSIPAT.EXE on your ANSI driver, or using PC Magazines ANSI.COM.

If this switch is set ON then DOORWAY will attempt to guess when a blind scroll
was done when in BIOS mode, and scroll the remote.  If you are getting double
line feeds at the bottom of the screen on the remote, turn this swithc OFF.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

MAXIMUM USER TIME

This is the time in minutes the user is allowed in DOORWAY.  If left blank
defualt is 10 minutes, and if DOORWAY reads a DOOR.SYS or a PCBAORD.SYS file,
the time will be the amount given in this file, unless overridden by this
switch.

This switch is only functional on registered versions of DOORWAYU.

NETWORK OVERRIDE

This switch will change calls to read a file into a network compatible mode.
This may help if a program gets sharing violations when running on more than
one window or computer.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

OVERRIDE OPENING SCREEN

This overrides the large DOORWAY opening screen.  It is functional only on
the registered version of DOORWAY.  The time delays can also be eliminated.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

PATH TO PROGRAM

This is the path to where the program is.  Remember that you may need to
put in the drive and the \ for DOS to find the program.  IE. C:\MYPROG.

PROGRAM TO RUN

This is the name of the program file to run.  IT must end in .EXE or .COM
unless the COMMAND.COM switch is set to VIA.

QUICKBASIC

This allows you to use BIOS mode with programs compiled with QUICKBASIC 4.0.
Programs compiled with versions 1-3 should use BIOS mode, QUICKBASIC 4.0
should use this switch and BIOS mode, and versions after 4.0 should use
DIRECT mode.  Use this switch ONLY for QB 4.0 programs.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

RETURN or BREAK CODE

This code will cause DOORWAY to abort a program when entered from the host or
remote keyboard.  For instance, a ^K will break the program and exit DOORWAY
when a control K is entered at either keyboard.

.SYS FILE LOCATION

This switch defines the location of the DOOR.SYS or PCBOARD.SYS file. 
Enter the path to the DOOR.SYS or PCBOARD.SYS file.  Enter a * if there
is no SYS file to be read.  If left blank will look in the current directory
for the .SYS file.

CHARACTERS TO TRAP

This is a sequence of characters to trap.  Normal and control characters can
be trapped.  Extended keys cannot be individually trapped.  Entering a ^@ will
trap all extended keys.  If specific extended keys, such as function, alt,
and cursor keys need to be trapped, then use the xtable function to translate
them to something harmless.

     USE MULTITASKER VIRTUAL SCREEN

This switch when ON will use a multitasker's virtual screen address instead
of the standard screen addresses.  Use this switch if you have VIRTUALIZE VIDEO
turned OFF in Desqview.  If VIRTUALIZE VIDEO in Desqview is ON do NOT use this
switch or the remote screen will be scrambled.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

VIDEO CAPTURE

This should be set to DIRECT if the remote does not receive the HOST's screen.
If you wish to switch between the modes with the capturing switch, you will
need to set to either BIOS or DIRECT.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

VIDEO CAPTURE SWITCH

This character will switch the HOST between DIRECT and BIOS modes.  When
switching from BIOS to DIRECT mode the remote screen will be redrawn.

If left blank, no switch will be defined.

WAIT

This switch will cause DOORWAY to wait after the program terminates, until
the user enters a key.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

TRANSLATION TABLE

This is the path and name of the translation table.  The translation table
can be created by running XTABLE.  It is used to translate user keystrokes
to something different for the HOST program.

PRINTER REDIRECTION

Data sent to the printer on the HOST may be sent to the printer, dumped to
NUL, or sent to the remote.  If the remote does not support printer redirection
then DOORWAY will dump the characters when remote is selected.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

RETURN MESAGE

This is the name of a file which replaces the RETURNING TO BOARD message.


REBOOT INSTEAD OF EXTERNAL ABORT

If this switch is set, DOORWAY will reboot the computer on a carrier loss
or user timeout instead of externally aborting the program.  When under
Desqview the INTERRUPT 19 switch should be set as well, or lockups could
result.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

INTERRUPT 19 FOR REBOOTING

Normally DOORWAY does not reboot on carrier loss or timeouts.  However
if DOORWAY is unable to break the program externally, or if the reboot
switch is set then DOORWAY will reboot the computer.  If this switch is
set then DOORWAY will do an interrupt 19 for rebooting.  This is normally
done when running under Desqview, and in that case an int 19 will simply
close the Desqview window.

Do not use this switch if you are operating from ordinary dos.  Dos tends
to lock up on an interrupt 19.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

OVERRIDE 40 COLUMN MODE

This switch will prevent a program from going into 40 column mode.  The
reason for this is that 40 column mode under desqview can create problems.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

CHANGE DIRECTORY TO APPLICATION

If this switch is set then DOORWAY will change into the application directory
prior to running the program.  This is necessary for many programs to find
their supporting files, such as the configuration file.

If you are running a batch file from DOORWAY, then it is usually better to
change any directories within the batch file itself with the CD \SUBDIR
batch command.

Use the left and rigth arrows to select options.

NO CARRIER LOSS DELAY

Normally DOORWAY will wait for carrier loss to be detected for 6 seconds.
This prevents aborting the program from call waiting, or if the connection
drops for a couple of seconds.  If this switch is set true it will abort
immediately upon detection of a loss of the CD signal.  This is used with
Galatacom on a null modem connection, where the CD is dropped for only about
1 second to signal DOORWAY to abort the application.

Use the left and right arrows to select options.

OPTIONAL TERMINATION CODES

DOORWAY will normally attempt to externally abort a program on carrier loss,
and user timeouts.  However, some programs need to flush files, and do some
maintnance prior to being aborted.  If this field is not empty, DOORWAY
will put requested characters in the buffer prior to attempting to externally
abort the program.  Up to 16 entries may be made.  IE.  If escapes back the
program to the previous screen (from up to 4 levels depth), and a Q [return]
Y [return] then exits the program, enter ^[^[^[^[Q^MY^M to make DOORWAY exit
the program. (The ^[ is the escape character and the ^M is the return key).
