Checking out http://doors.bbsdev.net there is a .tgz for Clans and
also for Opendoors. I can't get this to run. Any ideas?

Those binaries are around 15 years old... maybe try grabbing the
source code from sourceforge and building a shiny new binary.

Hrm, can't get odoors to build. Downloaded through cvs per
instructions on your site and ran 'make'.

    gcc -fPIC -fPIC -O2 -Llibs-Linux/ -I../xpdev -Wall
-DHAS_INTTYPES_H -shared -L../xpdev/gcc.linux.lib.release ex_ski.c -o
exe-Linux/ex_ski -lODoors -lxpdev
    ex_ski.c:30:21: fatal error: genwrap.h: No such file or directory
     #include "genwrap.h"
                         ^
    compilation terminated.
    GNUmakefile:209: recipe for target 'exe-Linux/ex_ski' failed
    make: *** [exe-Linux/ex_ski] Error 1

You also need the xpdev directory from CVS now to build the OpenDoors
example.

However, when it's building the examples (ie: ex_ski.c), it has built
OpenDoors successfully already.  I believe there's a way to build
without the examples, but my main system blew up today, so I can't
verify it.

EDIT: A quick look on CVSWeb doesn't suggest a way, but when it gets
to that point, you should already have successfully built OpenDoors.

Ah, yep, you're right! Found the libs. Thanks. Going to try building
clans now.

Ok, got it to build, but I keep getting segfaults and it's missing all
kinds of configuration files. Guess I'll just use the older dos
version. TBH I've never gotten this to work in probably a decade,
maybe it just wasn't meant to be.
