Hello, All.

I just got my system back online... :)

I co-wrote TinyTIC, a freeware, open source TIC processor, designed to work with any BBS. TinyTIC will process the TICs and move the files as well as create a text message announcement... it's up to the sysop to get the message into the message bases (using a third party utility-nearly every BBS package has something available for it that can do that).

It was designed with Synchronet sysops in mind, but it will work with any BBS.

If anyone's interested in it, let me know at the address below and I'll send it
to you. I don't have it up on my website yet.

Oh, it's available for DOS, OS/2, Win32 and Linux. Written in C++ by Mike Dillon and myself (I mostly wrote the docs and helped test :).

Later,
Sean

I'll see if I still have the OS/2 version. I checked in my archives and discovered I didn't have it. It seems that there was a problem creating the newer OS/2 versions because of a problem in gcc or something... I'll look.

Not at this time... once I figure out how to hatch files, I might get Mike to update it. ;) Once things get settled down with my new life, I'm thinking about rewriting TinyTIC myself in Pascal so all platforms can have a version again.

I have never, ever used virus scanning as part of a regular upload routine to my system. I run a network-wide virus scan once a night to check for things and in the six years I've run a BBS, I've never once had a virus in an archive or a file, thankfully.

The only time I ever got viruses was when I opened mail like an idiot without checking it. Since I'm back to running Windows, I use AVG, which is has a plugin for OE, that scans all incoming and outgoing mail as it goes in and out of my system.
