SUMMARY
=======

The HostDisp (or VMGATE) program is written so that it can be run without any
command-line options. However, some options are usually necessary in most
environments. These options are as follows:

   Option   Description
  ------   -----------

  -C       Necessary if you want the program to run in color.

  -E       Necessary if you want to have error messages sent to a
           specific mailbox on the local-area network (LAN).

  -F       Necessary if you do not have the directory containing the
           3270 file transfer programs in the MS-DOS path of the
           gateway PC.

  -L       Required if you want to create a log file for the gateway
           program's activities.

  -X       Necessary if you want the gateway PC to use NetBIOS to
           provide mail system users with instant notification of new
           mail.
