Folks

I have scripted the post to split at 7k. Please let me know if you have any issues. I forgot to add the part number to the subject line, think I fixed that now

I wrote a really neat script when I was publishing the FidoGazette for bash that split up a large next file into parts. If I can find it, I'll send it to you.

I think you sent it to me and I adapted it to suit. But I was trying to use python to see it how I could get it to work. I do need to add some UFT-8 to ASCII conversion as well

I have a fairly good understanding of it as I have had to use it on other scripts. I will copy and paste it into the script. I just wish BBBS had UTF-8

That's odd that BBBS doesn't support UTF-8. MBSE does, thankfully.

Yeah, he released the 64 bit Pi version this year. I am hoping he does a Silicon version of the terminal app, bterm

If I didn't run so many DOS doors, I'd put my BBS on a RPi.

If you're running X, try DOSbox-X.

Never run X, I am at heart a console lad. I do need to get another Pi to replace an older one so may use that as an experimental box
