What's New in BBS Informant Version 1.05
──> Maintenance Update
BBS Informant Version 1.05 fixes a problem where a BBS node could
appear to hang after a user selected Yes to Save his newly
entered BBS information. (This was not a problem on the Sysop's
menu, but was a problem on the user's menu.)
This version also adds an option for the Sysop to enable or
disable Fossil driver support. (The default is Off.)
What's New in BBS Informant Version 1.04
──> Feature Enhancements!
BBS Informant Version 1.04 adds many significant enhancements
over previous versions. The most significant change is the
ability for users to download the BBS list in an ASCII text
format. Supported protocols are XModem, YModem, and ZModem. The
format of the ASCII text file depends on the "Format For Display
List" option available from the main menu. For Canadian users,
we have restructured the database, and provided a 4-character
"State/Province" field, instead of the previous 2-character
limit. When using the List option from the main menu, users will
notice that the One-Line format has been expanded to include the
Phone #1 Baud Rate, and Number of BBS Lines.
In order to properly upgrade from a previous version of BBS
Informant, simply install the new program files, and run the door
from a BBS node. The first time BBS Informant Version 1.04 is
run, it will upgrade any previous version's data files to the new
format. This is a very fast process, and should take a minimal
amount of time. A message box will be displayed when it has been
completed.
What's New in BBS Informant Version 1.03
──> Non-ANSI Support!
BBS Informant Version 1.03 adds support for non-ANSI users. ANSI
codes are not displayed for non-ANSI users.
──> One-Line List Display Format!
An additional method of listing BBS numbers has been added. The
one-line display format displays only the BBS name and number
when the [L]ist option is selected.
What's New in BBS Informant Version 1.02
──> Maintenance Update BBS Informant Version 1.02 adds a few minor
cosmetic changes. We have added a Registration Number field to
the main menu for identification purposes (for registered users),
and have fixed a few minor centering issues on the opening
screen.
What's New in BBS Informant Version 1.01

──> Maintenance Update BBS Informant Version 1.01 adds an option for
expanded or concise formats when listing entries from within the
BBS door. The expanded format displays 1 BBS name per page,
while the concise format displays up to 4 names per page. Color
enhancements have been added to the main menu. Also, a minor
problem has been fixed on the sysop's add/edit menu, where the
first item would disappear when ENTER was pressed, if the list
contained less than 15 entries.
What's New in BBS Informant Version 1.00
──> Initial Release of BBS Informant! BBS Informant is a BBS door used

and numbers. BBS Informant is a comprehensive list/search door
