RT> I use now on this moment EleBBS, but i found that there is a bug with I believe that there is either a built-in BW door in EleBBS or one that works with it. I've used that on other bbses running EleBBS. RT> the only door that i found then was that from Cutting Edge... RT> But it is oke i will be use it unregistered, i dont have many user RT> that will use the QWK Mail door it is just that i support it on the RT> BBS ;) There is a difference between QWK and BW... Bluewave doors produce BW offline packets, which can be read only in BlueWave or BW-compatible readers. The BW (or compatible) readers also read and generate QWK packets, so they can be used with other bbses that only have some sort of QWK packets, such as Wildcat. I'm using my BW reader right now to answer this message. As it happens, it is going to be going to a BW door, so will stay in a BW format. If I were replying from one of my backup bbs packets, it likely could have been in a QWK format, as some of them don't have BW, just QWK. As a user that relies heavily on doing things offline, I Thank You very much for offering the option. :) If I were to visit your bbs, offline capability is one thing I look for. :) ttyl neb ... It is "USER" friendly. But my name doesn't happen to be User. --- Blue Wave/DOS v2.20 * Origin: The Holodeck telnet://holo.homeip.net (1:261/1381) |
