                           Quick Setup Instructions


 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
  Here are some quick and dirty installation instructions to get you going
  right away! If you are upgrading, go down to the section, "Upgrading."
 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------


  New Install
 -------------
  1) Make a directory to hold the program.

  2) Move (or copy) the INSTALL.BAT & FILES.ZIP files to this new directory
     and run the INSTALL.BAT program.

  3) INSTALL will automatically load the GB Setup program. Make sure all of
     the configuration fields are set to your likings. If not, change em! ;)

  4) Make SURE you run the "Node Setup" option in GB Setup to set up all of
     your nodes. The node setup creates NODE#.CFG files used to run the
     door. # will be the number of the node that each config file is for.

  5) Create your batch file(s) for running the door from your BBS. In
     these/this batch file(s), you need to change to the doors home
     directory, and execute GBLIST.EXE with one command line parameter, the
     name of the config file for the node being loaded. The config files
     are named NODE#.CFG, where # is the config files node number.

     Example batch file for node 1,
                                   @ECHO OFF
                                   CD\DOORS\GBLIST
                                   GBLIST NODE1.CFG

     Example batch file for node 4,
                                   @ECHO OFF
                                   CD\DOORS\GBLIST
                                   GBLIST NODE4.CFG

     Make sure the NODE#.CFG files already exist! They will not exist until
     you run the "Node Setup" option in GB Setup, and save your info for
     each node.

  6) If needed, setup the door in your BBS software. This door _is_
     multi-node compatible, and it can be ran by more than one node at the
     same time.

 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------


  Upgrading
 -----------
  1) Follow the same instructions as above for the installation part. Your
     current BBS's listed will NOT be overwritten, or erased.

  2) Run GB Setup and make sure everything is in order to your likings.
     Remember, your current configuration _will_ be overwritten during the
     installation due to the format of the GBLIST.DAT file (config data)
     being changed.

  3) If you are upgrading from v1.x, then you MUST run the included
     UPGRADE.EXE program after installation and setup, to convert your
     BBS.DAT file to the new format used by v2.x.
