World Wide BBS 2.5 (7.1.95) Copyright © 1995 Arthur Choung --- World Wide BBS is now shareware. If you use this program, I request that you send me a donation of US$30. In return I will send you all updates. Only registered users will have access to updates, unless there is a silly bug that prevents users from evaluating this program. The following is a list of what I have planned for the next release: o Allow user to have a signature, which will be appended to all messages he writes. o Allow user to press return when viewing a message to advance to the next one. o Example code to demonstrate the use of wwbbs.library and wwbbs.lib. There are functions to handle config info, users, messages, and files, and other goodies. o MessageMaint tool to delete old messages. o FileMaint tool to move old files to an offline storage area. o Commands in Email, MsgBase, and FileBase to list email, messages (threads and responses), and files for faster scanning. And this is a list of what else may make it into the next release: o Inter-node communications, including paging and chatting. o Full screen interface to view email, messages, and files. o Remote shell. I am undecided on supporting UMS. Here are a few programs that you may want to use with WWBBS, which you can get on Aminet: o Tin - To read usenet newsgroups. o Elm - To read internet email. o MTalk - To have conferencing. -Arthur Internet: choung@seas.ucla.edu or arthur@qedbbs.com US Mail: 10324 Chestnut Street, Bellflower, CA 90706 USA
