It's abandonware but it still works. As of now it will parse 10 separate nodelists as follows: _______________________________________________ ¦ +---------------------+ ¦ ¦ ¦ FNLScan Main Menu ¦ ¦ ¦ +---------------------+ ¦ ¦ 1) Search nodelist by BBS name ¦ ¦ 2) Search nodelist by sysop name ¦ ¦ 3) Search nodelist by city ¦ ¦ 4) Search nodelist by area code ¦ ¦ 5) Search nodelist by zone and net ¦ ¦ 6) Search nodelist entries for text ¦ ¦ T) Toggle short/long node display mode ¦ ¦ X) Toggle expert mode ¦ ¦ H) Help on FNLScan ¦ ¦ Q) Quit to BBS ¦ ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ Would be nice to have a Synch plugin. :) -- Bill Telnet: tequilamockingbirdonline.net Web: bbs.tequilamockingbirdonline.net FTP: ftp.tequilamockingbirdonline.net:2121 IRC: irc.tequilamockingbirdonline.net Ports: 6661-6670 SSL: +6697 Radio: radio.tequilamockingbirdonline.net:8010/live ....
