Cheepware is a line of freeware BBS doors and sysop utilities that I have been
developing since 1998.  My BBS doors are DOS-based and written in Turbo
Pqascal 7.  My utilities are written using Turbo Pascal 7, Virtual Pascal for
OS/2 and Win32, and Free Pascal for Win64 and Linux (though I don't do much
for those these days).  I also have released a single 32-bit DOS utility that
I use a special patch for Virtual Pascal to create.

I am quietly working on Cheepware.  I am rewriting a lot of the code I use to
create doors to be more efficient.  I have a few more BBS doors in progress. 
I am a bit slow these days as I am now medically retired and dealing with
several chronic health issues that drain my energy often.

If you're interested in Cheepware, just ask. :)

Fidonet can use all the help it can get. :)

Thank you for stopping by!
