Thank you Wayne for responding as fast as you did with a fix for the shrink 
problems. I was having problems with batch files and using the shrink 
function, Im sure others are as well. well heres the fix from wayne bell.

he said that the bbs probably isnt calling command.com correctly, so heres 
what ya do: if you have the source, edit bbsutil1.c and search for shrink_out. 
it will be called twice in the function run_chain. add a ,1 on the parameter 
list for each time it is called, so it will have

shrink_out(s,1,0,1,1);

and

shrink_out(s,1,1,1,1);


and recompile!, it worked for me! Dan, sysop 007'S AFTERBURNER 313-478-5836

Another Easy mod from the guys at @8412
The Alliance.

Well some people have tried all kinds of way to do this all you need
do is change what you have to what i have.
ok heres where the code is.

Load up sysopf1.c

search for do_callout(int sn)

go on down to you see

deleat this line.

run_external(s);

insert this line.

shrink_out(s,0,0,0,0);

/* the s if the varable for the file to run.*/
first 0 is is there a user logged on no. second 0 is do you want the bbs to
intercept DOS calls. The 3rd 0 is do you want to enable CTRL C no, and
the last is do you want to run a command.com /c filename. it will
not shrink if thats set to one. It will pop up a DATA not found, if you do.


Ok that was to shrink when your bbs calls another, what if your bbs is
called by the other.

Load up BBSUTL.C

SEARCH FOR NETWORK

then where you see a run_external1(s); dleate that
insert shrink_out(s,0,0,0,0);

and you will be in business.


This was fun trying to figure out.

Well another easy mod by Lord Samos

  1. Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!

  2. This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.

  3. But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
