Fewer Than 10 File Handles

  File handles are used to access files and some special devices in
a DOS system.  The number of available file handles you have left in
your system at this time may be too few for using functions in
RoseReader.

  The internal compression and editor are two functions that will
possibly need more file handles than are available.

  This may also affect other programs that you use on your computer.

  To correct this problem you should change or create a file called
CONFIG.SYS in the root directory of the disk you boot your system from.
This file should contain a line that says "FILES=" and gives a number.
We recommend that this number be between 20 and 30 for normal operation.
Door Prompts Configuration

  This window allows you to set the mail door prompts that the BBS you
call will use to operate. It is recommended that use the default set
for the door that you call, as listed below.

  You should only need to change these prompts if you use a mail door
that is not supported or your sysop has changed the prompts.

  RoseMail door users will not need to do any of this configuration as
the RoseReader has these prompts at all times.  Ensure that you are
using the RoseMail door in your main prompts section.

Available Commands:

Alt-F1 will set QMail V3.0 door default prompts.
Alt-F2 will set QMail V4.0 door default prompts.
Alt-F3 will set MarkMail door default prompts.
Information Message

  This window displays an information message from a RoseReader
function. The message may also suggest an action to be taken.
Normally, however, there is no required action.
Option Not Available

  This window displays a message to inform you that the function you
have requested can not be used due to the key file you are currently
using.  If you wish to use this function you must upgrade to a keyfile
that will allow you to use more functions.
  To upgrade, please use DOOR 3 on Rose Media (at 416-733-0894).
