║ GT-HELP ║ GTBULLET.BBS - the Bulletin Announcements everyone sees
╚═════════╩════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════


    GT systems are expected to have at least one logon bulletin, 
    GTBULLET.BBS.  This file is shown to all new callers after they have 
    logged on.

    Usually the sysop updates this occasionally, adding new information to
    the *top* of the file.  Users can read it until they recognise
    something which they have seen on a previous visit, ending at a
    convenient MORE prompt.

    For example :


     ┌─────────────────────── ─ ─ ─ ─ ─ ─
     │╔══════════════╗
     │║ 3rd May 1990 ║
     │╚══════════════╝
     │
     │A new version of MB_FIXUP was released today.  You will find it in the
     │COMMS file area.
     │
     │╔═════════════════╗
     │║ 28th April 1990 ║
     │╚═════════════════╝
     │
     │We installed a HST today, so you can now log on at 9600.
     |

      (etc).

    It is just a text file, so the sysop is free to present it as
    appropriate.

    Hint:   It is wise to insert a manual MORE prompt in convenient places
            about every 20th line) to avoid GT breaking up individual
            items.

    Any bulletins may have a .CBS version for ANSI callers.  The CBS
    version, if it exists, will be shown to ANSI callers.

    A CBS file is never compulsory - if it does not exist the caller will
    be shown the .BBS version - so you needn't maintain two versions if you
    do not wish to.
