There was a utility called mbbsutil (i think) that could do this. You
may be able to grab an older version of Mystic and get that utility.

Most of mbbsutil's features are built into mutil now, but not the
ability to write out an areas.bbs.

I didn't realize there wasn't an export in MUTIL until you said that!

I should probably fix that. I don't really remember the format of AREAS.BBS these days though so I will need to find a refresher. I remember it being pretty (too) simple.

Its minimal effort to add it to MUTIL so I can whip it up in no time.

Thankyou

I have added the AREAS.BBS export into MUTIL tonight and updated the A47 prealpha releases for Windows and Linux to include this.

Hey g00r00...

There is an issue you are aware of... so I'm told... When I use SSH I cannot use doors, the system hangs up on me. If I use the Door Party Server I
connect fine. If I try to use the individual doors they hang... I was told
you were aware of the problem

:)
Great BBS... Thanx

Mutil! Not many people export areas.bbs anymore.

Sbbs is basically local Id <tab> area tag <tab> uplinks (or downlinks)

Local-gen-Chat GEN_CHAT 1:1:/1 2:1/1

Etc.

Yes that isn't an issue with Mystic specifically though.

I don't know what your trying to run but your tear line says Mystic 64-bit, so I can only assume you're trying to run DOOR32 doors over SSH which will not work. You would need to bridge the connection with telnet or use a DOS version of the door in Windows 32-bit and allow Mystic to redirect its FOSSIL communications.

If you want to run doors well you're best bet for compatibility is to use Windows 32-bit not 64-bit Windows and DOS versions of the doors.
