Accomodate ASCII users

Hi!

My welcome page is ansi heavy and my users coming in via ham radio using packet (at 1200 only) use ASCII graphics only and it just bogs down the connection. It sounds like the IF-ANSI construct would work to show the ANSI graphics if it's an ANSI user, and if it's an ASCII user to just show a ...

File library list

Hi.... small change... When you're in the File Library, and you do S to select a library, you have to then type ? to get the list of libraries. It would be great if just pressing enter on the prompt will show the list of libraries. This would match the behavior of the Forums Select a new Forum ...

Page pauses in menus

Hi all,

Ok, this has annoyed me ever since I starting using MajorBBS back in the day....

The "Nonstop, Quit, or Continue?" prompt sometimes will appear when showing a menu. For menus, can't it just always show the entire menu? It's never more then a screenful. I don't want Nonstop because I do ...

Re: CD file library

Hi, thanks for this... will try it for the future.

I ended up manually creating one File Library per CD directory and importing the files. It did work and it sucked in the FILE_ID.DIZ's too.

Here was my process for others looking to do the same thing:

Create your Alt File Path on your BBS ...

Re: USR not displaying RING message

Hi again, I figured it out. I have to do a AT&F0 to get the real default settings and then it works properly.

These modems I bought I think we're used on a leased line or something because everything about them has not been default! (dip switches, etc)

Thanks for listening. :)

USR not displaying RING message

Hi!

I have a USR Courier V.Everything modem hooked up to my com port. I'm able to dial out to another BBS successfully. But when there is an incoming call, the modem does not output the word RING. The "AA" light flashes so it's recognizing the line is ringing.

I reset the DIP switches back to ...
