Hello All,

This is what happens when I have too much time on my hands...

Something different than my usual BBS fare.

Hello All,

Is this a new version? I've got Attitude Assessment, I believe. I don't
know what version, though.

I normally write my BBS doors in Turbo Pascal. I asked Microsoft Copilot to rewrite it in COBOL for me.

It works surprisingly well.

Oh, Ok I never learned Cobol, so I really didn't see the difference! Thanks for the explanation.

OK now that is awesome. I have written some small utilities for GT Power
in COBOL over the years, but never tried a door because I wasn't sure about redirecting output over the connection.

Now I have something to ponder about. ;)

MBSE (and I believe Synchronet) can run stdio programs as doors. This is just a regular peogram under *NIX.

Now I have something to ponder about. ;)

Feel free to use my code as a starter framework; it's why I released this
under the MIT License. I did this for fun and it works quite well.
