A really good pattern to follow when writing code -- a pattern esposed
by the designers of C and Unix -- is: Write in high level code, first
concentrate on getting it to work, later profile-profile-and-more-profile
to find the parts which are executed a lot, optimize *THOSE* areas.
Profiling shows where optimization will do the most good.
I shouldn't think something like a "BBS" would need assembler code.
That job doesn't seem to be a highly time critical thing..
