I don't know how far you have gone into the BBS-PC! But I am running it also and it has the most powerfull reconfiguring of menus I have ever seen on a BBS. You basicly have 111 function call which are all standard BBS functions Read Message, Write Message, ect. You write your own menus using any key to want adding text anywhere you want and have any key call any function from any menu level (Thats a lot of 'Anys'!) Then you actually compile the menus using a supplied program (BBSMENU). You can even have a separate set of menus for each type of computer using there custom character sets and graphics! Very Powerfull. There is a local board here, the Dreamscape BBS (619-755-2863) which runs on the Amiga and uses th{ exact same menus/commands as Compuserve including a separat{ SIG for each Computer. Its quite neat.
