    ML>> patch by manually patching the RA version of the door... everything was   
    ML>> found as the patch scripts and readme state and the manual hex editing   
    ML>> of the binary was no problem... TTBOMK, everything works as desired and   
      
   So you worked with hubby's patch...  :)   
      
    ML>> i've not seen any mention of problems from those who use my system's   
    ML>> offline capabilities who choose to use the BW door (if i still have it   
    ML>> online)...    
    NB>> Um.... I never saw the real BW door on the BBS, just OLMS...  I've   
    NB>> looked periodically for a command to let me get to the BW door, but   
    NB>> never seen it available...    
      
    ML> i might have removed it by the time you became a regular user... but   
    ML> then again, as i think about it, i may also have removed it due to my   
    ML> running a beta of the BBS software and the door supporting an older   
    ML> version of the data structures... i don't recall if i had written or   
    ML> otherwise used a glue program to convert the structures back and forth   
    ML> between what the door needs and what the BBS actually uses... yeah, it   
    ML> has been quite a while ago ;)    
      
   Well.. for a time line of sorts... the date on the latest version of the   
   patch (as on my computer) is 2006.  That IS a while ago.  :)   But I   
   think I may have been lurking on the bbs, just reading messages to me or   
   something similar, until you offered the offline option at all...  I   
   don't remember ever seeing the true BW door available... although I   
   might be misremembering...  :)   Maybe the problem was* a mismatch   
   between versions of softwares...
