Dear SysOp,
The premier issue of A-CHAT Magazine is being released as of
September 1, 1992. It is a new, full-color electronic new magazine
including many interesting features.
The file, ACHAT209.ZIP, has been uploaded to your board for your
evaluation. We hope you will find it of such quality that you will
want to make it available to your callers for downloading.
A-CHAT has been designed around needs found in and expressed by
the BBS community. So that you might be able to take a few minutes
out of your busy schedule and glance at A-CHAT, we have done the
following things:
1. Included a FILE_ID.DIZ file in the zipped file so that
the file description on your board will be much easier if
your BBS software is capable of processing it.
2. Included a file named DESCRIP.DOC with a short, medium
and long file description if your software cannot handle
the FILE_ID.DIZ.
3. Included ANSI and ASCII announcement screens for your
board. These screens have the material placed between
rows 2 and 22, inclusive to permit them to interface
with virtually any BBS software. All that may be needed
is any control characters required by your BBS software.
These files are named ACHAT209.ANS and ACHAT209.ASC,
respectively.
This premier issue of A-CHAT Magazine includes full-page color
announcements from 40 bulletin boards. These announcements are, in
many cases, the BBS welcome screens. If you would like for your
board to be announced in a forthcoming issue of A-CHAT, you should
do the following:
1. Prepare a zipped file of the screen you wish to be your
announcement. Color is preferred.
2. Call the Back To BASIC BBS at (713) 470-8844 and enter
the A-CHAT Section. This does not require any
validation. Upload the file and leave a comment about
its contents, giving your name and phone number. This
comment may be included when you enter the file
description (up to four lines) or may be left
separately.
BBS announcements will be included on a complimentary basis in
future issues of A-CHAT subject to space availability. All
submissions will become the property of A-CHAT, and none will be
returned. Offensive or unintelligible material will not be
published. The magazine also includes a listing of bulletin boards
arranged by the type of BBS software being used. Any changes or
corrections to that information may be left as a comment using the
above procedure.
Finally, permit me to thank you for your consideration of A-CHAT,
and wish you the best as you continue to provide a useful and
worthwhile service to the community.
