Haaa.... great feedback... yes, it is very command to "test" programs for "bad
stuff" before making them available to the public.  This practice is not only
common but necessary on DOS and Mac oriented BBSes.  But, since there are no
"bad stuff" in Model T programming, we've "always" had an open,
member-supported system somewhere on all the various BBSes occupying this
position over the last 12 years.  Yes, that's right, 12 years.  This BBS was
online before there was a Model 100 to support.  I just happened to gain an
interest in the Model 100 and dedicate the BBS to its support back before it
was the popular thing to do, and still now, well after it's been forgotton by
all but the knowledgable few.
 
Well, glad you finally discovered the (7)Uploads area and are using it.  You
know, I've been feeling like doing some recreational programming, lately, or at
least doing some program collecting.  I might start using the (7)Uploads area,
myself.
 
Note: Some of the programs that go into the (7)Uploads area get shunted over to
the (4)Library where they are kept forever.  Which programs and why is totally
up to our online librarian, Robert Benson.
