This program (TURBOBBS-II) will compile! No other claims are made!

TBBS 1.2 has the following features(limitations): (But it is PD and free!)

1. COM1 and COM2 only.

2. NO 300 baud callers.

3. XMODEM and YMODEM only!

4. No real documents.

5. Compile with TP 3.0 as this: ( I used TP 3.02 PC-DOS ).

code := 0D00
data := 0F00
stack := 2000
heap := 2000

TBBS as a .COM
FILESYS as a .CHN


NOTE: Few more hours would easily add 300 baud, external protocols,
doors, file(ARC, ZOO, DWC, etc) view/test, and who knows what.
The biggest part of the work is done.

1. TBBS 1.3 now supports external transfer protocols!
- sample .bat files are provided. External protocol drivers
are required.

2. Several new features added - and I'm sure bugs to go with
them. The following known:

a. The pausescr does NOT work exactly as expected.

3. CONFIG.BBS is now working! Is NOT trashed by TBBS.

4. NOTE: This version compiled with TP 3.02 (optimized!). It may
NOT compile with TP 3.01 or TP 3.02. Optimizing patch
is available on PYSMATIC BBS.

1. TBBS is now TP 5.0/5.5!

2. Many new features! See TBBS.DOC and source.

3. I (like many other users) found this program with Zer0 documents
to explain it's operation. I have added a few small items and
tried to make the BBS operation a bit more straightforward.


02-20-90 1.5q

1. GetInput & inputstring now recognize and handle backspace correctly!

2. Added more syslog messages in filesys.pas.

3. TBBS.EXE nolonger included with TBBS.

02-21-90 1.5r

1. The file named in CONFIG.BBS as FILR= is now shown to the caller
before he proceeds with the upload.

2. Caller who uploads a file now gets Upload_Factor(UPFR=) times the
amount of time used for the upload.

02-23-90 1.5s

1. Optimized some of the character output routines.

2. Changed the startup info line.

03-05-90 1.5t

1. TBBS does NOT and will NOT show the full tricks/concepts that
are in NBBS! I have shown some of them to improve TBBS, but
this is a learning tool for other TURBO Pascal programmers.
I have found the fastest way to learn is fix/improve existing
code, the process can be tedious and at times a pain but when
you fix what you want you will remember how to do it! It took
me about 2 years to understand and begin to progress with WWIV
3.21d toward what is now NBBS3.

2. TBBS is soon to become the core of M2BBS which will be written
in LOGITECH MODULA-2 3.40!

3. This will be the final vewrsion of TBBS for a bit. Items found
in the M2BBS effort will be addressed as approprite.

4. Comments and info on bug fixes would be appreciated.
