That should really make you feel good and helps your community as well. If you let me know, it will also make me feel good (as well as my wife, who wonders why I spend so much time doing this). § Donate a few bucks to Andy Walding of the Digital X-Connect BBS, who has graciously allowed me to use his BBS as the official distribution site. He really has a great board going and can always use some generous contributions to offset his cost in providing the BBS to the public. Just log on to the X-Connect as described in the technical support section and follow the BBS's instructions for becoming a contributor. itch processes to copy files all over simultaneously?

  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/
