  I still use batchfiles under VA...still remembering a document I got
from a fellow Sysop when my BBS first went up 20 years ago. Entitled
"So You Want To Be A Sysop", it actually had 4 separate bulletins. But,
the applicable part for this echo was "you must construct batchfiles
for events, etc., or be prepared to live at your computer". 

  That file is still a bulletin in my textfiles area.
