    i think .can files should be in sbbs/ctrl as well.

    In hindsite, I agree, but in fact, I disagree: the .can files are located adjacent to the bad*.msg files in the "text" directory.

    yeah but msg files are meanted to be displayed, so they belong in the sbbs/text directory

    ..can files are a type of control file so I feel they belong in sbbs/ctrl

    it's your software, though. but seems weird to me that can files are located in sbbs/text
