that's a bad example.
that bbs is kinda stock and corney.

those command keys were deuce's decisions. i talked to him about it but he

there is even a default built in editor.

we would all have to be running some data gathering software and i dont think 
we can get everyone on board with tht.

make what apps? you mean like a stand alone app that calls our bbses?
it's kind of hard to use a bbs on a phone.
