Excellent, downloaded and built, tested, and installed on my BBS :)

I've done similar with a number of opensource roguelikes - made them more or less work as BBS doors and tried to plug the security gaps. Fortunately, the roguelike universe is so incredibly incestuous they all basically implement the same logic for saving and accessing the filesystem, so it makes it easy to patch them.

Thanks for sharing this fork!
