- HydraBBS door coders wanted
- ===========================
-
- HydraBBS is a new BBS system written by myself, it offers
- unmatched configurablilty for sysops and loads of nice
- touches for users.
-
- For HydraBBS to really succeed I need some coders to code some new
- doors for HydraBBS, or to port doors from other BBS systems to
- HydraBBS.
-
- HydraBBS is really simple for door coders to get to grips with,
- it has two shared libries that offer *complete* direct access
- to any bit of information about the BBS that you could want,
- as well a whole host of *really* handy functions and routines
- to make accessing this data a user friendly as possible.
-
- For instance, to get a line of 40 characters of text from the
- user, that times out after 10 seconds, and displays a countdown
- timer, provides full line editing and command history,and only
- allows specific characters, and converts the input to upper case,
- and dis-allows OLM's, and prompt the user with a text message,
- you'd just do this:
-
- strcpy(N_ND->CharsAllowed,"ABCDE12345-_");
- DOOR_GetLine(GL_EDIT | GL_DISPLAY | GL_HISTORY | GL_COUNTDOWN |
- GL_USECHARS|GL_CVTUPPER|GL_NOOLM,
- '\0',40,10,"Give me some text :");
-
- How cool is that ? Do that in AmiExpress :-) hehe...
-
- Want to tag a file in the current conference ?
-
- DOOR_SystemUser("A",filename);
-
- Want to display an ANSI screen, particular to the current
- conference and node, with embedded commands ? No problem:
-
- DOOR_DisplaySpecialScreen("my_special_screen");
-
- Want to display a text file ?
-
- DOOR_DisplayScreen("HBBS:Storage/Misc/MyTextFile.TXT");
-
- It's just great, m8!
-
