Glad to know it's getting out!  I added a little feature to MBSE for myself. 
:)

See, I enjoy putting up "holiday" ANSI/ASCII screens.  Now MBSE
can do so if 
someone wants to turn on bulletins, but I wanted something simpler, much like 
what I did when I ran Maximus/2.  Using Maximus' scripting language, I 
programmed in a little script that checked if "holiday.bbs"
(Maximus requires 
all ANSI screens to be converted to bytecode to show correctly) existed, it'd 
show it.  I put a little line in newuser.c that checks for the existence of 
"holiday.ans/.asc" and shows it.

A very small thing to do but I thought it was fun.  I also wrote a few scripts 
that work together that allow me to automate the nodelist and infopack archive 
creation and hatching for my own FTN network, Micronet.

MBSE is quite powerful in many ways if you don't mind getting under the hood 
and learning.
