ExchangeBBS

Xenophobe BBS (that I have been writing since 1983) updated to TCP/IP, multi-node, multi-operating-system. I also aquired the source to QuickBBS 2.80 and 2.81, and I am in the process of Integrating its features - new product ExchangeBBS.

Features:

  • ASCII 7Bit, 8Bit and UTF8
  • ANSI 8 Color Background, 16 Color FG/BG, 256 Color FG/BG and True Color FG/BG
  • i18b locationation (multiple languages supported - using QuickBBS 2.75/2.76 Language Files)
  • Community Edition supports 5 concurrent logins, Pro = 250, Enterprise = 50,000
  • Built-in Fidonet BinkP Mailer Support - My mailer is Rhenium (not uploaded yet)
  • Built-in FTN Tosser, with rethreading and dbase driving dupe checker
  • Built-in active source for XModem, XModem-CRC, 1K-XModem-CRC, WXModem-CRC, YModem, YModemG
    • All protocols have been optimized for 10 gigabit fiber networks
    • some protocols limit performance due to timing, packet sizes, non-windowed ACK/NAK logic
  • Designed for download into /BBS/ or C:\BBS\ folder, and launch via ModernPascal.com's CodeRunner2
  • Local login is available through telnet terminal, web based telnet terminal, and soon: mp2 welcome.p
  • Supports terminal programs that are ANSI X3.64 compliant
  • Uses FoxPro .DBF and .CDX for Users, Messagebase and configuration files.
  • Uses physical file system for File Area, and CSV file FILES.CSV for Filename, Date, Size, Description
  • Customizable ANSI Prompts
  • Extensive Display File (see: /includes/bbskit.inc DisplayFileEx()).
