PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Welcome to Strip Poker Door! We hope you enjoy the program!

In this door you may play against 20 computer players in Strip Poker!
(10 females and 10 males). When you logon initially, you are asked
which player you want to play against (male or female). A second
screen comes up asking which of the 10 players you wish to play
against.

Take a look at their stats! It shows how many hands each one has
won/lost, how many rounds they won/lost, and how much money they've
paid out or have taken in. After you select the player, you're off to
the main menu.

At the main menu, you have the following options:


Q- Quit the current game.
T- View the TOP TEN players. (Computer players are included too!!)
S- View your statistics. (Hands won/lost and rounds won/lost).
V- View the all time high score and last weeks high score. (This door
   resets every monday).
1-9- Enter a 1 through 9 to place your bet! This is straight poker so
   there are no redraws!
C- Change opponent. In case you're really getting your ass kicked, you
   may always switch computer players. This is only available after a
   "stripping".

SCORING:
You must bet for each card played. All bets are placed into the pot
until the end of the hand at which time the pot is awarded to the high
hand

Remember, if you blow your money before monday, you're done until the
door resets. This door resets with the first player on monday!

OTHER INFO:
On the main screen, it will always keep track of how many pieces of
clothing you have left for the round (5 max). Keep an eye on this and
bet accordingly!

Other status lines will tell you what your opponent drew and what you
have drawn, it will also tell you if you win or lose.

That's about it, we hope you enjoy the game and continue to support
our products!

NOTE
~~~~
A public registration key is included

This key will unlock the door for more plays per day.
Until it is registered, you are limited to one door entry
per day and five plays per play.

By running SPOKER LOCAL, the SysOp can play the door without any
crippling to better evaluate the door. When asked for the LOGON
NAME, enter SYSOP

UPGRADE INFO
~~~~~~~~~~~~

v1.2 to v1.3      -->  Replace the SPOKER.EXE, SP19.DAT, SPUTIL2.DAT,
                       and CLEARIT.RIP file.

v1.0/v1.1 to v1.3 -->  Because of certain player record format changes
                       you will have to completely erase the old
                       version and set v1.2 up from scratch. Be sure
                       to erase everything! (You can save the CFG
                       files since they did remain the same).

~~~~~~~~~~~~
Run Strip Poker using the following command line:

SPOKER UTILITY

Next, RESET the DOOR!! Select number 1 from the SPUTIL menu! This
will reset everything from scratch. Next, select number 2 from the
SPUTIL menu and make sure the high score files have been reset. Next,
select number 3, set the SYSOP.CFG file -- answer all the questions here.
Finally, select number 4, set the SPOKER.CFG file.

Other configuration options are also available! If you would like
to setup a different reset date for the door, select #8 and enter the
reset date! This way you could run a 30 day tournament or whatever you
wish. After resetting on a custom reset date, the door reverts back
to resetting every monday.

   BOARD                    <=- Restart BBS.

This Door is multi-node  compatible so you may run more than 1 node from
the same .CFG file provided the path to your system file (DORINFOx.DEF,
CALLINFO.BBS, etc) is exactly the same unless you are using environment
variables, (q.v.)

Environment Variables
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
PCBoard automatically creates the %PCBDRIVE% & %PCBDIR% environment
variables. Non-PCBoard systems may also use these variables by including
the following in either your BBS batch or AUTOEXEC.BAT
  SET PCBDRIVE=C:               <- Drive letter of your BBS files
  SET PCBDIR=\BBSDIR            <- Path to your BBS files
Then in your Door .CFG file instead of putting C:\BBSDIR\DOOR.SYS, you
would put %PCBDRIVE%%PCBDIR%\DOOR.SYS. This allows you to use just one
.CFG file for multi-node operation!

To specify a non-standard IRQ, put the IRQ number after the .CFG on the
command line.  For example:

     SPOKER SPOKER.CFG /5
or using the PCBDRIVE procedure:   SET IRQ=5   and use
     SPOKER SPOKER.CFG /%IRQ%

This tells the program to use IRQ 5 instead of the standard IRQ.

  Had reports of conflicts when using non-standard IRQ's on Novell/Netware
 systems. Seems Novell also uses the / character so something went screwy
 somewhere. So I added the * (asterisk) which may be used instead of the /
 in case of a conflict. In other words, /%IRQ% and *%IRQ% will both work
 and are interchangeable.

When specifying the location of the system file on line 1 of the doors .CFG
file, you may use the environment variables %pcbdrive%, %pcbdir%, %pcbnode%,
and %wcnodeid%. Some examples:
 PCBoard: 
   USERS.SYS in C:\PCB           - %pcbdrive%%pcbdir%\USERS.SYS
   USERS.SYS in C:\PCB\NODE1     - %pcbdrive%%pcbdir%\NODE%pcbnode%\USERS.SYS

 Wildcat!:
   USERINFO.DAT in C:\WC\NODE1   - C:\WC\NODE%wcnodeid%

Non-PCBoard systems may use the PCB environment variables by setting them
in either AUTOEXEC.BAT or in the batch that runs the door. For example:
 SET PCBDRIVE=C:
 SET PCBDIR=\BBSDIR
 SET PCBNODE=1

Fossil Driver Support
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DoorFrame supports the use of Fossil drivers.  To tell your Door to use the
Fossil driver instead of the standard COM ports, just put /FD on the command
line when running the door. For example:
     MYDOOR MYDOOR.CFG /FD
indicates that a Fossil driver is present and should be used. If no Fossil
driver is detected, DoorFrame will print a message to that effect and exit
the door gracefully.
