Re: Weird IIgs Rom 01 bug

["brad" <mrbrad@ll.net>]

the bbs software i'm talking about was so old...it never had day of the week
..it took up too much ram in the program...(1981 bbs program more/less...and
an 86 bbs program that way too...)

hey..they run....people can find the date out on the main bbs...that was
internet capable...these were just setup as door type sub-bbs's people could
get on 1 at a time via a serial...to relive those days of text drawn klingon
warships and star wars posters.....via 300 baud modem
downloads....(boy....how dwebish is that)...

date/time is a small price to pay ..to keep them up...and much more useful
then the boat anchors as the prob only other "public" use i could have put
them to...

this was tpro 4.2f (modified) and dos 3.3 applenet (diff then the prodos
version who made his later....not related)...if i remember right

i think as far as the metal/fv 4.0xev i had..this time problem/date was
fixed..there also was a fix for the proline apple // bbs pkg also

whatever.....it takes to get the stuff to float i guess
