I don't think he's referring to local games. In the case he's describing, he's
making use of a telnet door game server (ie: DoorParty or BBSLink) hosted
elsewhere, which would not require his system to use a dropfile.
So from what I've been reading, he's trying to create a script that once
executed from one of his BBS menus, will telnet to that door game server, and
is supposed to login with your BBS credentials given to you by the server's
host, and then pass the user name of the person logged on to your system for
use in the door game server's drop files.
It looks like Shawn's looking for a way to pass the current logged in user's
name to that script, so he can continue to pass that name on to the door game
server.
Regards,
Nick
