--------------------------------------
This archive contains the full install version of the
SX (eSSeXX) BBS software and all other needed files to run a
full AmiExpress styled Bulletin Board System.
System-X is on the run and will be updated permanently !
==================================================================
INSTALL NOTES
To install this software, use the supported Installer.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The installer does no versioncheck of any systemlibary`s so
plz check that up.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Follow the instructions by the Installer. You have any time the
posibility, to abort the installation.
If you like to install by hand, refer to the guide in the SX:Doc/
directory, chapter `Installation`.
Have a look at the guide and reset your computer.
Start the System-X BBS in your selected way and be a real \X op :)

Developers Internal Changes
===========================
Note(s) on further developing:
------------------------------
* To check if a file exists, use the access() function, defined in stdio.h.
This funtion basically does the same as: Lock() a file, check if lock!=0,
and then UnLock() the file again.
