  You can update the list of PWAD by clicking on the drive buttons.
  To select several files, double click or press the space bar (a 'o' appears
on the left of the file name).
  To search quickly a file, you can type the first letters of the file name.
  The 'Reset' button cancels the current selection.
  The 'Infos' button gives you miscellaneous informations about the current
focused file.
  The WAD files in the list are stored in the file DOOMERIE.LST. You can
modify this file with DOS commands:
	C:\>DIR C:\*.WAD /B /S > DOOMERIE.LST
	C:\>DIR D:\*.WAD /B /S >> DOOMERIE.LST
	...
  To use the DOOM 1 files in DOOM II, you have to select a WAD file with the
all the textures of DOOM 1 (for example: DOOM1-2.WAD from paolo@netcom.com).
Doomerie converts automatically the name format of the missions from DOOM 1
(ExMy) to DOOM II (MAPxx) in a temporary file.


2.4. The serial game dialog box:

		  
		  [] Serial Game ͻ
		                                     
		    Type of game                     
		     (o) Cooperative                 
		     ( ) Deathmatch 1.0              
		     ( ) Deathmatch 2.0              
		                                     
		    Timer deathmatch  0     min

		    Number to call  12345678       
		                                  
		                                     
		           Run       Cancel        
		                   
		  ͼ
		  

  You can choose in this dialog box if you want to play a cooperative or a
deathmatch game (in deathmatch 2.0, the objects respawn after a while). In a
deathmatch, you can limit the duration of the game with a timer (0 indicates
an unlimited game).
  You have to configure the communication between the two computers (the COM
port, the baud rate, etc).
  If you call with a modem, you have to enter a phone number. The '' button
opens a dialog box to choose a phone number present in the MODEM.NUM file.


2.5. The network game dialog box:

		    
		    [] Network Game ͻ
		                                   
		      Number of players  3         
		                                   
		      Type of game                 
		       ( ) Cooperative             
		       ( ) Deathmatch 1.0          
		       (o) Deathmatch 2.0          
		                                   
		      Timer deathmatch  10    min  
		                                   
		      Port  0                      
		                                   
		                                   
		           Run       Cancel      
		                 
		    ͼ
		    

  You have to choose the type of the game, the number of players and,
eventually, a port number.

  GO32 - Copyright (C) DJ Delorie
  GO32 is a 32-bit 80386 DOS extender. It supports full virtual memory with
paging to disk. You can specify where GO32 will create a temporary paging file
with the environment variable GO32TMP. For example add this line in your
autoexec.bat if you want to store the paging file in the 'C:\TEMP' directory:
	set GO32TMP=c:/temp
	(note the UNIX format path)
By default, GO32 checks the environment variables 'TMP' and 'TEMP'.
