i don't think they can simply be renames but it is possible... i think the
key is different folders and different dlls... if they are the same,
perhaps it is the different version builds that's the difference i
spotted... if that's the case, then the author would be the one that
renamed them, right?

11264 - 11246 = 18 bytes difference between telenetdoor.exe and bbslink.exe
with bbslink being the larger and older...

197632 - 189440 = 8192 bytes difference between the two RMLib.dlls with the
telnetdoor one being both larger and newer...

i note also the specifying of the information is done differently with one
seemingly having () around each parameter and the other not... comparing
the two shows the different formats as well as the different command line
parameters being fed to the programs... -X and -Y are certainly used
differently...
