Hello all,

I am writing a multi-line bbs on the amiga, and am trying to make the code
compatible as possible between amiga and msdos...

Problem is - Amiga os is multitasking, with nice features such as message-
passing and resident libraries... I guess I cant use those features 
and be compatible with dos. Anyone know if there is a toolkit for writing
a scheduler in msdos? 

Do any of the multi-line bbs progs out there support multi-line AND 
doors programs at the same time? 
Any clue as to how these are programmed ( if they exist )


Thanks for your time...
