      TID: Mystic BBS 1.12 A48       MSGID: 1:129/215 f8c09b22       REPLY: 1:123/120@fidonet 50D9C54B       TZUTC: -0500        SP> what is does if a bot telnets in or whatever you use to login to a bbs        SP> it say hit esc twice to go to login if they dont hit esc twice with in        SP> 30 sec it doesnt let them procced into the bbs for login in.              I guess my question would be: What is the difference between a bot sitting at       the "Press ESCAPE" prompt versus sitting at a "Enter your username" prompt?              I can whip up a sample startup.mps script to do the escape thing and include       it with the next release. You could also do something similar with the       "System Password" function. If you set it to a value of "BBS" and then edit       the System Password prompt to read "Type BBS and press enter to enter: " then       you will get       a similar effect (except they have type BBS instead of escape twice).              ...
