## Introduction

@node introduction "SysValuesDoor Guide: Introduction"


 'SysValues' is a neat little program to be used as a door for MAX's BBS (and
 compatible programs). It reports : 
 
                        -  CPU/FPU/MMU type
                        -  CHIP/FAST RAM bytes free
                        -  PAL/NTSC 
     
 Anyway, enjoy it.
