Have you thought of importing the files description with Maxlist?  If the
files on this CD carry a FILE_ID.DIZ you'll be able to do it.  Otherwise,
how about running HTMSTRIP on the HTML file?  With a minor bit of editing,
you should have a FILES.BBS.
HTMSTRIP is HTMST709.ZIP here.
Maxlist is:
MXL220.ZIP
MXL226.ZIP
MXLUP231.ZIP (Requires MXL226.ZIP)
