Hi Al,
I think that Sysop of the E! board you were talking to is me ha!  I run CIA
Amiga BBS and have all the Excelsior! stuff I could find posted there for
others to download.  Haven't been able to get in touch with any of the three
owners.  I'm sure the fix would be easy if we just had the source code.  May
have to move on to something else myself because I want to be able to carry
Fidonet Retronet and some of the others as well as get some of the better doors
up and going.  Very hard to find anything for Excelsior! anymore.  None ofthe
links on the support site work anymore.
