I have coded at least a couple of COBOL programs for BBS utilities. Two of
them are obsolete now, but another one runs almost every time a door is
opened here. There is a program that will create DOOR.SYS files for GT
Power BBSes, but it is abandonware and had some bug in it when it came to
running it multi-node with my setup.
I coded a COBOL program that will convert the GT native drop file into
DOOR.SYS and DORINFO format files.
Since I am the only person I know of running GT Power, I guess that makes
it also obsolete beyond my BBS machine. :)
