              A REAL SOLUTION FOR OS/2 DOOR PROGRAMMING!!!

Doors/2 is a 32-bit, multithreaded OS/2 port of Brian Pirie's OpenDoors
4.10, widely acknowledged as the best door library available for any
language or BBS environment.  Doors/2 is a C/C++ library intended to be
used with Borland C++ for OS/2.  It includes features such as:

* Fast, efficient OS/2 serial communications code -- no FOSSILs, .DLLs,
  or other comm service packages required.
* Support for virtually any type of serial port through the OS/2
  communications driver model.
* Multithreaded serial, keyboard, messaging, kernal, and video code for
  top-flight performance with minimal CPU load.
* Support for a wide variety of dropfiles, such as DOOR.SYS,
  DORINFOx.DEF, CHAIN.TXT, and RA 2.00 EXITINFO.BBS.
* The ability to run an OS/2 door from a BBS running in the OS/2 DOS box
  (and they said it couldn't be done... ).
* An ultra-fast internode messaging/chat system with throughput suitable
  for real-time interactive doors.
* Built-in support for blanked-screen "secure mode" *with* the ability
  to save and restore the remote screen on demand.
* The rich graphics, dropfile, communications, and interface features of
  OpenDoors 4.10 for DOS.
* The ability to produce a *single-source* door portable to DOS and OS/2
  with little more than a recompile!
* Coming soon:  OpenDoors 5.00 compatibility and support for popular
  non-Borland compilers!

If you're a seasoned door developer and customers have been asking for
OS/2 versions of your products, Doors/2 can help you meet this goal
*without* hundreds of hours porting and fussing with a new environment.

If you're a new door developer, OpenDoors for DOS and Doors/2 can allow
you to focus on *your application* with minimal attention to dropfiles,
modems, or details of ANSI graphics.  You can create an OS/2 door even
if you know little about doors and OS/2!
