I think you are referring to Red Ryder Host, which is specifically BBS
software and not a terminal emulator.  Now in version 2.0, RRH is commercial
software and is available from The FreeSoft Company, 150 Hickory Drive, Beaver
Falls, PA  15010, USA.

Red Ryder v. 10.3 is telecommunications software by the same company.  It does
offer a few features that would enable one to run a limited BBS, but it would
hardly seem to be worth the trouble.

(I have no connection w/ The FreeSoft Company other than being a customer.)
