I would still throw that in the programming category, but my point was that
you don't /need/ to use javascript, or perl, or any programming language for
that matter, to modify a BBS. Some of the most modded systems I've seen over

anything like that. It was all simple menu editing and TheDraw ansimations.

Regards,
Nick
