   Cheat Machine - BBS "Doorway" Door Mode 
  

 If you have the "Doorway" package, you can use CM as a door for 
 your BBS. 

 How:
 Use the parameter /DOORMODE on the command line for starting CM.EXE.

 * Notes on this mode:
   - Put CMDOOR.INI and CMSEND.BAT in the same directory as CM.EXE and
     start CM.EXE from that directory.
   - For safety and performance, these features where disabled:
         - Soundblaster samples
         - Adlib music
         - VGA font
         - Fading routines
         - Graphical intro screen
         - DOS Shell (pretty obvious!)
         - Print Cheat
         - Execute patch (Not supported)
   - When selecting a cheat of type file, the handling is changed:
     First the file is written to disk.
     Then, the user is given the option to download it.
     It is then deleted.
   - In-program Nags are removed
   - The program can be quit from any screen by a series of [Esc].
     3 or 4 max should cause a complete exit.
   - Registration checking is still active.  If you want to use this
     program a door on your BBS, register.  There are special offers
     for Sysops.  Putting an unregistered version in door-mode is only
     allowed for testing the setup.  See the file SYSDEAL.TXT.
   - You decide what libraries the callers can see, by deleting
     unwanted .CHT files. 

 * Doorway notes:
   - For the /* parameter, use 4 escapes.
   - This program does direct screen writes, so turn that param on.
   - Do not forget to turn Doorway off and on in the CMSEND.BAT 
     batch file!

 * Additional software:
   - Doorway (required) : DRWY231.ZIP 
   - DSZ (recommended)  : DSZ0607X.ZIP
   Both these packages (shareware version) can be obtained from us.
   You can -of course- use other/newer versions (or compatible products),
   but then you are on your own.
