   Running door games - how?

   Hi Niels,   
   >I'm planing to run a few doorgames on my Linux based BBBS system. How can this

   > FOSSIL, is this also possible with BBBS?   
      
   I have a file at filegate.net that Sean Rima (hi Sean!) wrote quite a while   
   ago for the linux version of BBBS, DOSEMU and Doors:   
      
   http://www.filegate.net/info/bbbs-doors-howto   
      
   Date        Description   
   131101 6k 1 Sean Rima's How-to for setting up DOS doors with BBBS/L and DOSEMU.   
      
   I haven't done this, but the file makes sense to me.   
      
   >Also, when I try to run native UN*X programs like nethack from the opendoor.bz   
   >script, I get the error message "nethack must be run from a terminal" - anyone   
   > got an idea how to do this right?   
      
   Maybe if show us your line in opendoor.bz for this game, we can see what   
   problems there are?   
      
   Take care,   
   Janis
