- VBBS could easily be distributed with a blank menu -- in-
- stead, a default menu and function-block set, reflecting the con-
- figuration of the software on the author's BBS, is included in
- the original archive. You are, of course, free to modify the
- menus and function blocks to your BBS' personality and your in-
- dividual tastes; see "Customizing VBBS" for more information on
- that subject.
-

- commands for which are listed below:
