I see my mistake now. I'm following someone's instructions on how       to use doorway.exe, which calls for DOSBox, but I think these instructions are       aimed for Windows users - probably Windows users need Microsoft Visual C++       2010 SP1 in order to use DosBox.              I should be fine as long as I have DOSBox installed. I was overthinking it.              Thank you!              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A45 2020/02/18 (Linux/64)        * Origin: CompuBBS | Ashburn VA | cfbbs.scinet-ftn.org (1:275/99)       SEEN-BY: 1/19 123 15/0 16/0 101 19/36 20/4609 90/1 103/705 105/81       SEEN-BY: 106/201 116/18 120/331 340 123/130 131 140 124/5016 128/2       SEEN-BY: 153/757 7715 154/10 201/0 203/0 124 412 218/700 221/0 1 222/2       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 452 550 616 664 1016 1017       SEEN-BY: 230/0 150 152 240/1120 5832 249/110 206 317 400 250/1 261/38       SEEN-BY: 261/100 1466 266/512 267/155 275/0 89 91 93 95 98 99 100       SEEN-BY: 275/101 201 301 280/464 5003 5006 282/1031 1056 288/100 291/100       SEEN-BY: 291/111 292/854 8125 310/31 317/3 320/119 219 319 322/0 757       SEEN-BY: 340/400 341/66 342/200 396/45 423/120 633/280 640/1321 712/848       SEEN-BY: 770/1 801/161 189 2320/105 2452/250 3634/12 5020/545 715       SEEN-BY: 5020/1042       PATH: 275/99 100 261/38 320/219 203/0 280/464 229/101 426           |
