====================================================================
DPFTP

DPFTP offers quick and easy access to anonymous FTP (File Transfer Protocol).
DPFTP is designed to make retrieving files from the Internet easy. It is
designed with what most of your callers want in mind: Browsing directories of
FTP servers and downloading files. Easy to handle menu driven ANSI version
plus point 'n click PA GUI version.

====================================================================
DPARCHIE

Retrieving files via FTP requires you to first find the files on the internet.
That's what DPARCHIE does. Search for files by exact name, substrings (case
sensitive or not), or regular expressions. Restrict searches by domain (.de,
.au, etc.) or path (only ms-dos or win or pc etc.). Easy to handle menu driven
ANSI version plus point 'n click PA GUI version.

====================================================================
DPTELNET

With DPTELNET you offer your callers remote login to computers all over the
world. Call hundreds of other BBS systems that are connected to the Internet.
Play games in MUDs (multi user dungeons) and MUSHs (multi user shared
hallucinations). Offer access to databases covering a vast area of interests.
Menu or POW script driven ANSI DLL plus point 'n click PA GUI version.

====================================================================
DPIRC

DPIRC lets your users take part in the global online chat network called IRC.
ANSI DLL with commands just like those in the local chat rooms. Plus a point
'n click PA GUI DLL to satisfy all your callers.

====================================================================
DPLINK

DPLINK makes the IRC chat network part of your PowerBBS! Open your chat rooms
to the world, busy all around the clock! Connect your chat rooms to those on
other PowerBBS's on the Global PowrCHAT Network! Seamless integration of up to
10 IRC channels with your local chat rooms. DPLINK can handle multiple
concurrent connections to different IRC servers and also act as an automatic
DCC file receiver, so other IRC users can upload files to your BBS.

====================================================================
DPNODE

Sends a message to all chat rooms whenever someone new logs in. Acoustic logon
and logoff notification to PA callers. Live node status display for the sysop
and for PA callers. Immediate notification when someone on your Friends List
logs in. Invite other callers to group or private chat by just clicking your
mouse.

====================================================================
DPPP

The add on that connects your BBS callers to the internet! It talks PPP/SLIP,
so your users can call in using their own TCP/IP stack (Trumpet, DUN, RAS,
MacTCP etc.) and software (WWW browsers, FTP, IRC clients), over your BBS
modem lines. You need only one IP address, even a dynamic one on a dial-up
account will do the job.

====================================================================
DPGATE

The PowerAccess Internet Gateway - Let your callers browse the Web, access
EMail, News, IRC and Telnet while connected to your PBBS with PA! You need
only one IP address, even a dynamic one on a dial-up account will do the job.
Access to a Proxy server required, PBBS 5.50 and PA 2.50 required!
