Customizing INI Files With the Editor

Naming portn_read_file and portn_write_file

The portn_read_file and portn_write_file parameters identify the ASCII text
files that the Simulator TSR uses to simulate reading from and writing to the
JANUS COM ports (1 to 4).
If you specify new filenames for these parameters, do not use comn.rcv and
comn.trx. Those filenames will cause your PC to associate input and output
with its communication ports.

Specifying a Path for portn_read_file and portn_write_file

If you use the Editor to select a file for the portn_read_file or
portn_write_file parameters, the Editor lets you select a file in any directory
or on any drive that is accessible from your PC. In this example, a user
selects a file in a directory on Drive F:
However, the Editor saves only the filename to the INI file, not the path For
.
example, if you check the INI file after saving this change, you see:
port4_read_file = sample4.rcv
If the file will not be in the current directory when you run the JANUS
application on your PC (or in a directory listed in the PATH statement in
your AUTOEXEC.BAT file), you must edit the INI file and add the file's
path to the filename. For example:
port4_read_file = f:\mis\beta\sample4.rcv
