Information about “RBBS-PC 1 OF 5 (ALSO 334,621,622,2092)”

The RBBS is the bulletin board system of choice for many IBM PC
bulletin boards. It's a large system on four disks and supports the
PC-SIG LIBRARY ON CD ROM.

RBBS-PC's internal structure is modularized and structured. The
program includes a File Management System for directories, additional
file exchange protocols, support for managing subscriptions,
configurable command letters, multiple uploads on a single command
line, new A)nswer and V)erbose ARC list commands, and
context-sensitive help. It also can run as a local application on a
network, use any field or define a new field to identify callers, and
individualize callers having the same ID. The source code is included.
