NewNew Door.Sys Format 07/07/90

  Format specifications for the universal Door System Interface.


  03/14/88 - Submitted by the "Limited Release Software Group"
             Originally developed by Rick Greer as a system whereby
             Door authors can write programs that will work on
             any BBS system that writes a DOOR.SYS file.

  Updated: 03/21/88 (RG)

  If a BBS program does not support one or more of the fields, the
  "default" values should be written.

  When reading this file, you should not go into an EOF loop. In
  other words, you should not read until you encounter End Of File.
  Instead, you should read what you KNOW is there. This allows for
  additions to the end of the file without forcing all programs to be
  re-compiled.

  Each line is STRAIGHT ASCII TEXT with a CR/LF at the end.
