Sounds nice, I might give it a try someday. I don't like the default file
area chooser and message area chooser.  I wonder if there's a nice one that
can be added like StarBar/StarArea for Maximus?  I'm having a had time
breaking away from Maximus but if Syncrhonet can be customized to look
almost like my current bbs and run DOS doors then I might switch over.

Yeah, same here. I'm constantly reading books to stay up to date for work,
and don't have the time to learn a new (to me) programming language just
yet.

I didn't know there was a C+?  I thought there was just C and C++.


Thanks,
