« INTRODUCTION »
The Concept for RDSWall came about because I was looking for a good 'Wall'
program. I didn't find one that worked well with PCBoard. So I sat down
and decided to write one. This is the outcome of that venture. And now I
have a 'Wall' program that I like! <grin> There are many configurable
options and upon registration you will be able to configure the colors.
If you have any suggestions let me know. This product is fully supported
by calling the support BBS: The Realm of Delirium at (806) 935-4760. You
can either log on with a handle of your choice or by using the DEMO ACCOUNT
access. I have written other PCBoard PPE's that may interest you. Please
feel free to call and download all recent versions of this and any other
program I have written. Just (J)oin the RDS conference and take a look at
what I have there.
« DISCLAIMER »
RDSWall is released under the SHAREWARE concept. You are allowed a reasonable
evaluation period of 30 days. After that time you are asked to register
this program or delete it. See Registration portion of this documentation.
Although this program has undergone extensive testing I make no gaurantee that
this program will do anything except take up hard drive space. Although
hopefully it is a fun program that you and your users will enjoy!

« SKIPPING INTRO SCREEN »
If you have REGISTERED RDSWall it is now possible to skip past the INTRO screen
just add /NOINTRO to your command line that runs the PPE to:
C:\PCB\RDSWALL\RDSWALL.PPE /NOINTRO
See next page for more information on running RDSWall
« NEW IN THIS VERSION »
* RDSWall is now much more Multi-node friendly!
* The 'Loading RDSWall, please wait...' prompt used when the /NOINTRO
command is executed is now language aware
« SETUP »
To set up RDSWall copy all included files into a directory. I will use
C:\PCB\RDSWALL\RDSWALL.PPE for example
o Go to your PCBoard directory
o Run PCBSETUP
o Type B (File Locations)
o Type B (Configuration Files)
o Arrow Down to CMD.LST then press F2 to edit. It looks like this:
╔══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╗

║ 1) WALL 10 0 0 C:\PCB\RDSWALL\RDSWALL.PPE ▒
╚══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╝
o Be sure and edit your BRDM file so that people know the program is there.
o Another Option is to call the PPE from the logon file... Heres how to
do that:

« RDSWALL.DAT »
This is the file where all of the wall information is kept. If you would
like to restart the wall just delete this file. Upon running RDSWall looks
for this file and if not found will recreate it with one new entry.
This is also where you will find the information on who said what. Although
with this version you can define a sysop security level in the .CFG file that
will show you who wrote the entry along with the time and date. But for this
file this is the format:

« SPECIAL OFFER »
Thank you first of all for your interest in RDSWall. I have
incorporated language awareness into this version of RDSWall as promised.
But, I am not a language expert. So I am looking for some help in compiling
more languages for RDSWall. If you can translate from english to any language
I need you! If you will upload a *complete language for RDSWall I will give
you a registration number for ½ price! As far as what needs to be included:
You must fully translate the WALLHELP. and WALLLANG. files into the desired
language. The languages I have are shown within the FILE LIST portion of
this documentation.
If you can help, send the information (typed) along with your registration form.
Or, you may upload it along with a registration form and then send in your paper
registration form along with the with the ½ off price of $2.50! Although I have
included a listing of the languages I currently have that doesn't mean between
now and when you send me a language I won't already have that one. So I do
suggest that you call first to make sure I don't already have the language.
I will post the information in Bulletin #1 in the RDS conference on The Realm
of Delirium BBS (806) 935 - 4760
« SUPPORT »
