   i got this working as a test on my OS/2 system *BUT* it requires 4DOS to be   
   able to process each line of the D32SYS file created by the RAT template... we   
   have to echo each line so that the %VARIABLEs will be filled in with their   
   contents from the environment when writing the DOOR32.SYS file... in RA i'm   
   passing *R on the command line to get the user's record number... that is then   
   set in an environment variable %RECNUMB in the bat file...   
      
      
   the ramenu line for the door looks like this   
      
     *c /c c:\ra\d32sys.bat *r *sd32sys *m   
      
      
   D32SYS.BAT file looks like this...   
      
   ===== begin D32SYS.BAT =====   
   @echo off   
   if exist door32.sys del door32.sys   
   set RECNUMB=%1   
   for /l %foo in (0,1,%@EVAL[%@LINES[D32SYS.]-1] do echo %@LINE[D32SYS.,%foo] >>   
   DOOR32.SYS   
   ===== end D32SYS.BAT =====   
      
      
   D32SYS.RAT looks like this   
      
   ===== begin D32SYS.RAT =====   
   2   
   %SOCKHAND   
   ^Kr   
   RemoteAccess 2.62   
   %RECNUMB   
   ^Fa   
   ^F3   
   ^Fo   
   ^F_   
   1   
   ^Kw   
   ===== end D32SYS.RAT =====   
      
      
   the command line in GAMESRV would look like   
      
     c:\gamesrv\nf.bat *H /n*N /h*H c:\ra\ra.exe -n*N -B57600   
      
      
   and NF.BAT would look like this   
      
   ===== begin NF.BAT =====   
   @echo off   
   REM NF.BAT for NetFoss   
   REM capture the socket handle to SOCKHAND   
   set SOCKHAND=%1   
   shift   
   REM now process as normal before the above 2 lines were added   
   c:\gamesrv\netfoss.com %1   
   if errorlevel 1 goto end   
   c:\gamesrv\netcom.exe %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9   
   c:\gamesrv\netfoss.com /u   
   :end   
      
   ===== end NF.BAT =====   
      
   i had to change T-HANDLE to SOCKHAND because i found on my system that a '-'   
   broke the variable name... SOCKHAND is short form of SocketHandle...   
      
      
   NOTE: the above should work IF 4DOS or 4NT can be employed... i do not know   
   how to have winwhatever script files process a data file line by line and echo   
   each line with the %VARs replaced back out to a destination file... *MAYBE*   
   the following line can replace the one above in the D32SYS.BAT file above...   
      
     for /f "delims=" %%x in (D32SYS.) do echo %%x >> DOOR32.SYS   
      
   i don't know and will have to try to get on a Vista machine to test it... i   
   have no way to test it beyond Vista... hopefully the "echo %%x" part will   
   properly fill in the two %SOCKHAND and %RECNUM vars in the file with their   
   contents from the environment when it runs...
