I've been working on a shell for my BBS that is similar to a roguelikeãgame (ie. Nethack, Angband, Moria, Adom, etc.)ããAlthough incomplete (you can walk around, but thats about it), I have it ãavailable as a demo on my BBS. Its also available to the guest account.ããQuestions, comments, etc. appreciated.ããThanks,ããMindless Automatonã---ã þ Synchronet þ Eldritch Clockwork BBSã
