FOREM STARTUP DOCUMENTATION
After you have downloaded the
entire set of FoReM files,
they should be renamed and placed
on 2 seperate disks as follows:
DISK #1 (startup disk)-you must
add MYDOS DOS.SYS and Dup.SYS
AS DOWNLOADED RENAME TO
INITBBS INITBBS
VALIDATE VALIDATE
DISKUTIL DISKUTIL
MESSFIX MESSFIX
PASPRINT PASPRINT
START START
AUTORUN AUTORUN.SYS
FOREM26 FOREM26M.2
DISK #2 (your working data disk)
AS DOWNLOADED RENAME TO
WELCDAT WELCOME.DAT
BULLET BULLET.DAT
FUNC FUNCT.DAT
(ANY BBS LIST) PHONE.DAT
UPLOAD UPLOAD.DAT
HELPTXT HELP.TXT
ATASCII ATASCII.TXT
CLSTXT CLS.TXT
STATSTXT STATUS.TXT
INITTXT INIT.TXT
MOOSE MOOSE.TXT
DIRTXT DIR.TXT
MHELPTXT MHELP.TXT
PASAPTXT PASAPP.TXT
MHLP1TXT MHELP1.TXT
In addition, you need to dump the
file FORM2DOC to a printer to get
hard copy of the documentation to
set up and run FoReM.
Since Matt Singer (author of FoReM)
does not support this version
anymore, do not call him with
questions. If you leave me questions,
I'll do what I can to help, but
basically, you're on your own.
This BBS software was placed in the
public domain according to a message
from Mathew R. Singer on his BBS
effective Feb. 21,1985
Matt made it clear that he would
not support FoReM 26 anymore, so
don't call his BBS asking questions.
Finally-there is not much room for
modifications in this program
and I strongly suggest that you
use MYDOS 3.08 with it.
I used this BBS program for over
a year (although I am now running
FoReM XL), so I am relatively
familiar with it. If you have any
questions, DO NOT call Ricky Moose
BBS. Call me or perhaps a Sysop of
another FoReM will be willing to
help.
