Description:

This version of TransAmiga BBS (short: TA) is compiled with HiSoft BASIC 2.
The  development  of  this product is finished.  There won't be any updates
but  bugfixes  -  which  is  very  unlikely to be necessary.  The successor
TransComm  BBS  is written in C++ using the StormC and GNU C compilers.  It
will  offer  a lot more features especially internet related stuff and will
also be free of charge.

TransAmiga  BBS  (TA)  is  very  flexible and extreamely powerfull.  Almost
everything  is  customizable.   You  can  use ARexx scripts to add external
programs  like  online  games.  Most Paragon/Starnet doors and all standard
I/O (CLI) doors chan be used easily.

An Installer script is provided for update and easy first time setup.

TA  offers  a  wide  range  of internal ARexx commands (more than 150) that
allow  you  to  impelemt  almost  anything you can think of.  TA uses ARexx
instead of a special script language as many other BBS's do.  ARexx is more
flexible  and  comes  with  AmigaOS  (2.04+).  There is no ARexx bug I came
accross  in the years I used it.  A new script language would have blown up
the size of the prg a lot without any use.

Here comes a list of some features:

Most SkyLine/C-Net ARexx macros can be run without or with minor changes.

Access  levels  can  be defined for every single command and file/message
area.

Rudimentary support for RIPScrip.

An intuitive userinterface is provided.

File/byte ratio is optional.

FILE_ID.DIZ support for Uploads.

AminetCD is supported.

Full fidonet FTSC-0001 support. Handles Foozle message areas correctly.

Easy to use with TrapDoor, GMS, Foozle, MailManager, etc.

BBS remote  shell allows  external  maintenance  and similar. Things that
can't be done by a script.

New online commands can be added easily via ARexx scripts.
