Wanting to get back into BBSing (was big into it in the late 80s and
90s) and to learn some JavaScript, I set out to write a basic door
that could do "something" .  That something turned out to be doing
currency conversions.  Purely an informational door, but hey, I'm
proud of it!

That's very cool - where do you source the exchange rates from?
