The latest version of RBBS, the MBASIC Remote Bulletin Board System
program, is now available from SIMTEL20:

Filename			Type	 Bytes	 CRC

Directory MICRO:
RBBS37-1.LBR.1			COM	134272  3041H
RBBS37-2.LBR.1			COM	 67456  B0AAH

The first .LBR is all you need to get up and running.  The second is
source code and not needed since the already-compiled program is
supplied in RBBS37-1.LBR.  You configure your system name, password,
where files are to be stored, etc., in easily installed files using
RBBSINST.COM.

Thanks to Dennis Recla for this version.  Here are his comments about
what's in the two LBRs:

RBBS37-1.LBR contains the files necessary to run RBBS37.  These are the
running .COM files and sample message files.
 
-README .001   1K | BOOTPWD .      1K | BULLETIN.      1K | CALLERS .      1K
COMMENTS.      1K | COUNTERS.      1K | ENTERCPM.      1K | HELP    .      1K
INFO    .      1K | LASTCALR.      1K | MENURBBS.      1K | MESSAGES.      1K
NEWCOM  .      1K | NEWS    .      1K | RBBS    .COM   1K | RBBS37  .COM  45K
RBBS37  .DQC  22K | RBBSINST.COM  27K | RBBSINST.HQP   7K | RBBSUTIL.COM  25K
SUMMARY .      1K | TWIT    .      1K | USERS   .      1K | pwds    .      1K

Remember RBBS.COM is a special file that allows you to leave it in A0: and
run the real RBBS.COM program in A14:.

Also.. the file  pwds  is not in this .LBR since there is no way to produce
a lowercase file in a .LBR.

RBBS37-2.LBR contains the source code files for the .COM files
in RBBS37-1.LBR.
 
-README .002   1K | RBBS37  .AQC  27K | RBBS37NC.AQC  20K | RBBSINST.AQC  11K 
RBBSUTIL.AQC   9K

Separating the files in this way allows you to download a single .LBR with
all the files you need to run the system.
