            Tourist is  a Door  program that  places the  caller in  the
            heart of  New York  City where  he/she must walk from Macy's
            Department store  to Times  Square.    Sounds  easy,  right?
            Well, it is after dark and the streets are not well lighted!

            This is a variation of the very popular "Killer" program. We
            tried to liven it up a bit and provide for more challenges.

            To set  the door  up, all  you need  do is modify the sample
            TOURIST.CNF file  to reflect  the drive/path to the DOOR.SYS
            file that  the BBS  creates. Specifically, Tourist needs but
            two files:

                 DOOR.SYS            <- User Info
                 TOURIST.CNF         <- Door Info


            TOURIST.CNF
            ----------------------
            c:\gap                   <- Where to find DOOR.SYS
            The Crow's Nest          <- Your BBS name
            0                        <- IRQ number for Port
            0                        <- Base address for Port
            STANDARD                 <- COM Port Interface
            0                        <- See configuration file
            0                        <- See configuration file
            0                        <- See configuration file

            DOOR.SYS
            ----------------------
            Created By the BBS


            That's it!


            TOURIST.CNF  needs   to  be   in  the  same  directory  that
            TOURIST.EXE is in.

            To invoke Tourist, create a door batch file similar to this:

            TOURIST.BAT
            ----------------------
            @echo off
            cd \gap\doors\tourist
            tourist tourist.cnf
            cd \gap






            If you  are running  multi-nodes, create  a TOURIST.CNF file
            for each node (IE, TOURIST1.CNF, TOURIST2.CNF).  Change line
            one of  the file  so that  it points  to the  proper  node's
            default directory  (the  directory  where  the  BBS  program
            writes DOOR.SYS)

            The TOURIST.CNF  file is  where you tell TOURIST to look for
            the DOOR.SYS  file, the  name of  your BBS, and the COM port
            interface.

            If you  run on  the standard  COM Ports  of 1  or 2, you may
            enter 0  on lines 3 and 4 of the configuration file. Tourist
            will determine  which IRQ and Base address to use based upon
            the information it reads from DOOR.SYS. If, however, you run
            on COM  ports other  than 1 or 2, you need to supply the IRQ
            for the  COM port on line 3 and the Base Address for the COM
            port on line 4.

            Please note  that GAP  and WildCat  will  write  a  DOOR.SYS
            automatically when  a caller  exits the BBS system through a
            door. If you are running PCB, you must explicitly specify in
            the DOOR  configuration file  for PCB  that a  DOOR.SYS file
            should be written.

            If your  only interest  is  to  run  this  program  locally,
            without any  BBS intervention,  simple change  line 1 of the
            supplied TOURIST.CNF file so that it points to the directory
            where you installed the TOURIST files. The supplied DOOR.SYS
            was set  up so  that TOURIST  thinks it  is running in local
            mode. Then type TOURIST from that directory, and the program
            will run as if you logged onto a BBS locally.


            This door  was written  solely to  test the GAPCDR Interface
            Module. This  interface module  allows  you  to  write  Door
            programs for GAP, PCBoard, WildCat and any other BBS program
            that supports the standard DOOR.SYS door interface file.

            If you  need more information on the GAPCDR Interface Module
            for GAP,  PCB, WildCat  and other fine BBS programs that are
            capable of  writing a  DOOR.SYS file,  it  is  available  on
            better BBS  systems worldwide  and if you can't seem to find
            it, feel  free to  call The  Crow's Nest  BBS or  write  for
