Subj : RE: QWK Reader/editor wanted please

Hello Nick,

Working on one right now oddly enough.  Just finished work on the
Customizable BBS Terminal Program for Fidonet sysops.  Step two was the OLR.
Right now, beta testing is still a good two weeks away as most of the work has
gone into the creation of the core QWK VCL object.

When the Object is done, it'll be released at peoplecomm.org, and any delphi
programmer will be able to have his/her own OLR created within minutes, and
it'll include all the source code and it will be Open Sourced.

Hopefully, that'll get a few more programmers back in here.  It'll only do
QWK, but it does pretty much everything for the programmer.  As for the
editor and other stuff, It will be in the beta test of the Object, but not in
the downloadable QWK Object.

Both should be released at about the same time (as when I've finished work on
the object and tested it fully, the reader will be fully functional too).  It
will be made available, just not sure exactly where yet, but at the very least
it'll be released in some fidonet file echo.

In the mean time, I'd recommend Durangomail.  I don't use it, but I've heard
good things about it.  It's free and works under windows.  If you're
interested in the development of this OLR (which will be freeware), write me
at [email protected]
