Using TDIH_V13 with TriBBS
------------------------------
The following information is provided to assist New Sysops
to use TDIH_V13 on a TriBBS.  I prefer using the @X color 
codes in a single .BBS file instead of an .ANS and a .BBS 
so I used HISTORY2.EXE, the program written for the PCBoard,
and not HISTORY.EXE which was intended for other boards and
used two output files .ANS and .ASC. 

This is a "This Day in History" Generator and includes a
one liner "Witticism" in the same program.

I claim no originality or copyright for this material but 
rather wish to supplement the work of the author.

I started by creating a subdirectory: C:\TRIBBS\TDIH
then copying the files used to it. I retained:
     12   HIST.JAN thru DEC---data files, birthdays & history
          WIT.WIT ------------data files, witicisms
          HISTORY2.CFG
          HISTORY2.EXE
          HISTORY.DOC

Edit HISTORY2.CFG to;   C:\TRIBBS\TDIH\  ;trailing \ is required
                        C:\TRIBBS\TDIH\LOGONX.BBS  

Create file PAUSE.BBS in this subdirectory containing only;

@PAUSE@@CLS@

Include the following lines in the daily Event .BAT file;

CD C:\TRIBBS\TDIH
HISTORY2
COPY LOGONX.BBS+PAUSE.BBS C:\TRIBBS\DISPLAY\LOGON?.BBS
CD........           ;put desired LOGON screen # ^ here.
This is the only way I could think of to "Pause" the last
screenfull.  My programming ability is minimal.(Just enough
to be dangerous)

That does it.
