                            IN Auntie 5.12
 
                                  

     Installing HS/LINK in Auntie is simplicity in itself.  You must be 
     at version 5.12 which is currently still in beta, but all 
     registered Auntie owners can get the latest beta from the home base 
     BBS, Wes Meier's WC-BBS.  With Auntie you simply run the CONFIG 
     program and under the protocols you simply toggle support HS/LINK 
     to true.  The below is a sample of that screen.

     Next make sure that the HSLINK.EXE is in your path.  The defaults 
     for HS/LINK are found in the AUNTEXT file at line 1277.  If you 
     find you need the slow handshake with your drive you can either add 
     that in that line or make a HSLINK.CFG file with the defaults you 
     want to use.  If you do change anything in the AUNTEXT file you 
     must run MAKANTXT.exe again to regenerate the AUNTEXT.RND file that 
     the system uses while running.

     Once you finish just run AUNTVERF to assure that you have 
     everything set up right which will also make sure that HSLINK.EXE 
     is in your path.  Auntie uses the DSZ.LOG to get the stats when 
     finished with file transfers.  Bidirectional transfers run great 
     with Auntie.  Even while the user is downloading his/her QWK mail 
     packet they can send up a file and Auntie handles it all just fine.


     That's all there is to it, but as always, make sure to read the 
     docs for HS/LINK and Auntie.

  Good luck!
