Program Name: The Brain  Version 1
PC-SIG Version: 1
 
The BRAIN is a telecommunications designed to go through the motions of
accessing your favorite BBS (Bullitin Board Sysytem), or online service
(compuserve etc.) without requiring you to be present. This is accomplished
by building a "Command File" filled with special commands which the program
interprets and acts upon in your absence. These commands allow you to
upload and download files, leave messages, and generally perform any
routine tasks which you dont want to take the time to do yourself. Another
advantage is being able to set the program up to call a BBS when it is
easier to get online, such as late at night or while your at work in the
daytime. The documentation assumes that you are familiar with DOS and that
you already have a text editor and know how to use it. The manual consists
of a glossary of all the needed commands and a detailed description of each
(with brief examples). Also included is a sample command file for you to
learn from. The program will run an any IBM-PC or compatible with at least
128 K of memory and one disk drive. Since the command file is built from
scratch you must be familiar with the commands needed to program your modem
(initialize, dial, hang-up, etc.) as the program does not do any of this
for you (you must include modem commands within your command file). This
program is best suited to the intermediate and expert user and not well
suited to the novice.
