Program Wanted... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I could pay a little for this, but many sysops could use it. I'd like a
win32 or dos16 bit program that I could pass a directory to that would load a files.bbs file and display with lightbars, the file names for downloading
along with the description on the right. Tagging files would add them to a download list, they'd be viewable (downloads and viewing would be via
external executables that I already have) and downloadable via batch. I
don't think this would be too hard to implement, codefenix already has a sbbs version of this, but I'd like something that could be run on any win32 bbs or dos bbs running on a win32 os using nfu. I've got a mostly functional script for elebbs, but only got it mostly working for one page. It would need to be an executable to run on any win32/dos bbs.

What's filegate?
----------------
FileGate v2.00 is a fileslister, downloader and uploader
for RemoteAccess compatible bulletinboardsoftware running
files.bbs or RA internal filedatabase. FileGate will take care
of download-counters and will start the needed protocols.
BiDirectional protocols are supported as well!
The wareztag alike lister is HIGH-speed and easy to use for
both sysop and user. Lightbars, internal (and external)
fileviewing, tagging, backscroll, all features are available to
make life and bbs'ing very relaxed.
FileGate has multinode support aswell so more than one
line should be no problem at all.

Minimal requirements for installation:
--------------------------------------
. MS-DOS 3.30 or higher
. About 530kb of FREE conventional memory
. Vga or compatible video-card (for setup)
. 80286 or better
. About 1mb of FREE harddisk space for FULL
installation of ALL features
. Remote access 2.50 or higher compatible
bulletinboard-software using files.bbs or
ra-internal filedatabase
. You must set the environment variables:
set dszlog=<path+filename>
set temp=<path>
set ra=<path>

I tried this. It doesn't like NTVDM. The downloading routines alone won't even work. They definitely don't work with the file lister.
