	What you pro-proline supporters forget is that Acos is a language,
and very very very rarely do you see a bbs running a unmodified gbbs bbs.
point being that if you get onto a board which forces you to look at menus
all the time, or forces hotkeys on you, or only allows one type of terminal
is because of the programmer of the bbs (usually the sysop), NOT gbbs as
you people maliciously enjoy suggesting. Thus if the feature don't exist
DON'T try to put the blame on "GBBS", but the programmer of the bbs.
	i have written many bbs's using ACOS for sysops, and those sort
of things like different terminal modes, hotkeys, hot menus, I make an option.
That it is so easy to do such things makes ACOS/MACOS/METAL infinitely more
flexible
