   Use this script instead, I probably used the wrong one earlier :(  ttyS1 is my   
   dev/modem guy.. Sorry about that :(   
      
   #!/bin/sh   
   cd /home/bbbs   
   BBBSLANG en_US.utf8   
   while :   
   do   
      cd /home/bbbs   
     ./bbbs 2 2 TCPIP   
   #   
     RC=$?   
     echo BBBS RC: $RC   
    if [ $RC = 137 ]; then   
       exit   
     fi   
   #  set this errorlevel in Global: FidoNet: Sessions: Mail errorlevel   
   #  if [ $RC = 11 ];   
   #    then nohup /home/bbbs/mailin.sh  &   
   #  fi   
   #  Above commented out since I run mailin.sh in a cron job now.   
   #  set this errorlevel in Global: FidoNet: Sessions: User mail errl.   
   #  if [ $RC = 12 ];   
   #  then nohup /home/bbbs/mailout.sh &   
   #  fi   
      
     if [ $RC = 0 ]; then   
       exit   
     fi   
     reset   
   done   
      
   Warren Hrach sent me those scripts 'eons' ago... He was a great fellow.   
      
   Take care,   
   Janis
