Calm down. Obviusly I neglected to realize that some sites will expire my last
[recent] article. I case you need to know, SBBS is a new sbbs system that is
writen is shell scripts but is VERY powerful. (No cut corners) It is ful
featured also. It [should] be very portable because it uses standard unix
commands instead of system-dependant calls.

    Hope thats satisfactory. Just hope people still have my agreement! :-)
