-
- Welcome to the M A X'sBBS Demo. If you are just a BBS or a real sysop,
- this file is definatly worth taking a look at. M A X'sBBS is the most
- powerful and comprehsive BBS Package available for the Amiga. Infact, it
- puts 99.9% of the IBM BBS Packages to SHAME. It features:
-
- - FULL Fidonet capabilities. It uses a unique way of setting up points
- etc. It is powerful enough to be a hub to upto 200 different nodes.
-
- - MultiNode - M A X'sBBS Can support an unlimited amount of nodes
- running at the same time.
-
- - Full ANSI support - M A X'sBBS is capably of displaying almost
- every ANSI code in the standard. You only need one menu set for
- both ANSI and non-ANSI users - ANSI codes, are automatically
- filtered out "on-the-fly" by M A X'sBBS if the user doesn't want
- them.
-
- - M A X'sBBS Supports THE FASTEST Text routines around. It clearly
- outruns anything else.
-
- - M A X'sBBS supports the 6 major protocols including the latest and
- the most complete implementation of the Zmodem protocol. It uses
- it's own built-in routines for super-quick transfers.
-
- - M A X'sBBS has a FULLY menu driven sysop interface. Everything is
- done via mouse, menus, gadgets and windows. The BBS has 1 config
- file that does EVERYTHING! When you get the demo, just run it! No
- setting up needed at all. Everything concerning the BBS is
- configured via the mouse and windows - The Amiga Intuition
- interface. There are 10 windows, each configuring seperate parts of
- the BBS:
-
- 1. Paths and Options
- 2. System
- 3. Modem
- 4. Menus
- 5. Sections
- 6. User defaults
- 7. Text
- 8. Macros
- 9. Fidonet
- 10. Distribution
-
- M A X'sBBS Also features a complete intuition file editor and user
- editor which use file requesters for quick and easy maintnence.
-
- - M A X'BBS features Sysop programmable Macros. The f1-10 and F1-10
- keys can be programmed to do anything (including log you on). They
- can even send an ASCII textfile!
-
- - Every single string that the BBS displays can be changed via the
- Text Editor Window. Textfiles can even be displayed from within a
- text line!
-
- - 55 special charcters can be inserted ANYWHERE within the BBS. Ie:
-
- Your name is %f in a textline, menu or ANYWHERE would turn out as:
-
- Your name is M A X (Or whatever the user logged on as)
-
- There are even special control codes to pause a page or log a user
- off.
-
- - The BBS can be fully iconified into a small window on the WB
- screen. The window displays the node number, the user who is
- currently online, and the current menu function being used.
-
- - M A X'sBBS menus are simply textfiles, the actually commands are
- configured via a pull down menu in the main program. As usual, the
- textfile can say ANYTHING.
-
- - M A X'sBBS can run and supports paragon doors - A popular type of
- Door protocol that was origionally developed for Paragon BBS
- (lame), but is now extensively used in other BBS packages.
-
- M A X'sBBS also has an "extended" door port for much more power
- (That Paragon's specifications LACKED - suprise suprise). There at
- least 15 utilties already written for M A X'sBBS. Including
- Split-screen chat etc.
-
- There is so much more about M A X'sBBS. Download the demo and check it
- out!! I truly belive this BBS Package out-shines everything else on the
- market.
