• Download ProDoor v3.4 from Sam Smith. Everything here is built upon PRODOOR, including my FULL Fossil Level-5 implementation (found here).

This port goes out to my Legacy/X Sysops! Instead of doing Impulse32, I focused on my favorite BBS software. Same goes for PROBOARD (Thanks for the trust @Massacre!)
