Again no problem at all. It's my pleasure...

Yes, they store them as text files known as SEQ files. So it is pretty much
the same stuff, just different character set..

No Problem at all. I will send Shane the term program setup along with the
Image BBS setup, you can check it out from the sysop side and see what all
the craze was back in the 80's and early 90's.. We just released a upgrade
version back in December (3.0 yea, I did some of the programming on it jeez
LOL) and I will send you that, another simple setup just click the runme.bat
and it will boot to waiting for call..

I will get it to him soon, since we are a ways off I gotcha with the no
rush.. LOL :)
