Instructions to Install Wordle Under MBSE BBS

By Sean Dennis (sysop@outpostbbs.net)


*** You MUST do this as user "mbse"! ***

  1. Open a shell and run:
    umask 007
  2. Unpack the archive into a directory. In this example, I'm using:
    /opt/mbse/doors/wordle
  3. You need to chmod a few files:
    • chmod 0770 bbswordle
    • chmod 0660 *
  4. Create this script in
    /opt/mbse/bin
    . I call it "runwordle":
    #!/bin/bash
    cd /opt/mbse/doors/wordle
    ./bbswordle -D$1/door32.sys
    cp ./bulletin.ans /opt/mbse/share/int/txtfiles/en/blt61.ans
          
    Make sure you
    chmod +x runwordle
    .
  5. Create a menu entry for the door:
    8.3. EDIT MENU ITEM
    1. Sel. key          W
    2. Type nr.          7    Run external program in shell
    3. Opt. data         /opt/mbse/bin/runwordle /U 
    123456789012345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890 4. Display Security 0 5. Min. age 0 6. Lo-colors Normal display color 7. Hi-colors Bright display color 8. Autoexec No 9. Door Name Wordle 10. Y2K style No 11. No door.sys No 12. Use COMPort Yes 13. Run nosuid Yes 14. No Prompt Yes 15. Single User No 16. Hidden door No

    The /U will expand to the user's home directory under MBSE. You do not need to send a number with DOOR32.SYS.

Now test the door and make sure it works.
