I am currently doing this on mine:
http://mystic-hobbies.us and it works well. I would
like to be able to copy-and-paste some things into a message, and a web interface
would make it easier to accomplish this instead of having to use a telnet connection.
I DO use a web interface on my main site at
http://hobbylinebbs.com a Wildcat system.
There, I am able to log in via a web interface to read and write messages and to upload
or download files, The only thing I can't do is play Door Games. There was talk about
creating a new wcNavigator program that would allow a quick telnet connection from the
web to be able to play games, but I don't see that ever happening. The developer
hasn't even given it much thought lately.
