If you recall Jazzman's sports... game? I was wondering how syncdata
might be useful for tying other BBS' together.
SMBUTIL can be made to upload game data. getting it out is another
item.
But if a javascript segment can be called to cull out messages for the
door (making large assumptions) or added functionality to smbutil,
would be great.
Of course you know I'm not a programmer, but is this function in the
SDK? I would think someone else would have sought out syncdata to
transport data before now.
