That's been the "holy grail", it seems, of many BBS sysops for
over a decade now.  Unfortunately, I really don't think it exists.  Too
many of these people who were weaned only on the Web would have a lot of
problems understanding a text-based environment (really, I've had a couple
of users not understand how to use the BBS's menuing system).

I see that "feature" as a filter to keep out a lot of the jetsam
and floatsam that's all over the Web.  But that's just me and I'm
well-known for my stick-in-the-mud views on BBSing.  At least I like using
telnet. 

Later,
Sean
