Sorry, I did misunderstand.  I was aware through E-Mail that Andrew was
working on a mod for Multi-Line, and I guess I didn't read your message
very well, too (shown below):

I was thinking "Net Node" (I.E, 19962, 9956, etc) and when you said "rather
long...modifications to every...file" it sounded a lot like the 421-421a.MOD
file I got from the nearest SDS.

Of course, I live in dorm room, and only can get a BBS running without being
killed by my roomie by the grace of a small box and RingMaster (distinctive
ringing)...not to even think about running a multi-line BBS.  But it does
sound attractive for the future!  (Esp. since I have *NO* intentions of putting
UNIX on my computer!)
