 TommCHAT 1.0 by Gerald Albion (C) 1994 Whirlwind Software 

        TommCHAT is a BBS Door - an external program which your BBS
        calls - which allows you to add professional multi-user chat to
        virtually any BBS!

        TommCHAT is full featured, with remote co-sysop functions,
        generic and intelligent actions, public and private chat, 255
        access-restrictable channels, and much more!

        TommCHAT is extremely memory efficient and should run without
        memory problems even in cramped task sizes.

        TommCHAT is extremely generic - it can run on multitasking DOS
        systems under DesqView or multi-computer LAN type BBSes.  It
        needs no special hardware and no special device drivers except
        for a FOSSIL driver (which you're likely using already) and a
        RAM Disk (which many sysops are also already using).  Since it
        uses standard com ports, interfacing it to multi-port serial
        boards is easy as long as you have a FOSSIL for such boards.

        More importantly than all this technical stuff, TommCHAT turns
        an ordinary multi-line BBS into a busy electronic social center!
        Dedicated chat systems are universally popular and most BBSes
        with good multi-user chat as an added feature benefit from the
        popularity of this form of communication.  TommCHAT lets you
        give users this service without having to switch to different
        BBS software (giving up your existing BBS's appearance and
        functionality in the process!)

        To Run TommCHAT you will need:
          - A BBS capable of writing one of the supported Door Info drop
            files (DORINFO1.DEF, DOOR.SYS, PCBOARD.SYS or CALLINFO.BBS)
          - A FOSSIL driver or compatible Int 14 driver for your serial
            board
          - A hard disk with at least several hundred K free
          - A multi-tasking or LAN BBS system capable of handling
            more than one caller at once
          - MS-DOS 3.3 or higher (You might get it to work under OS/2 but
            I've never tested for this)
          - Enough memory (EMS, XMA, etc) for a respectable-sized RAM Disk
            (at least 512k RAM Disk recommended)

        You do NOT require:
          - A special comm card (TommCHAT uses generic FOSSIL calls)
          - A special multitasker (TommCHAT uses generic IPC files)
          - Any EMS or XMS, but it would help
          - A special device driver or TSR

                The Premier Adult BBS Door!  NEW Version 3.0!
                              by Gerald Albion

        If you're running an adult BBS, or even if you just have a
        "secret" section for open-minded adults, you have GOT to get
        Rancho Nevada!  This richly detailed game is already one of the
        most popular of its kind!  Set "in a huge, omnisexual pleasure
        palace somewhere out of Vegas", Rancho presents itself as a
        gigantic text adventure where you move throughout the complex
        looking for girls, drinking contests, and a good time!  Users
        compete to be the first to reach Level 100 and win the game.
        Rancho Nevada and all other Whirlwind doors include advanced
        word-wrapping chat mode and an emergency user-dump key for sysop
        convenience.  Rancho also lets you edit the user and/or other
        users while the user is online!  All in one tightly coded
        overlaid executable, for maximum speed, memory efficiency and
        sysop convenience!

        Prices vary depending on the number of lines you wish to run
        Rancho Nevada on.  Prices include printed manual and shipping.

                                  Hi-Q
                            by Gerald Albion

        This is a tiny, simple, slick and challenging full-screen ANSi
        puzzle door based on the classic pegboard game of the same name.
        Users try to remove pegs by jumping until there are no moves
        left.  The fewer pegs are left, the better the score! Best
        scores are kept in a "top-ten Hi-Q Cogitators" list for all to
        see.  Online help and emergency repaint keys are always
        available.  See who the real brainiacs on your BBS are!

        Prices vary depending on the number of lines you wish to run
        Hi-Q on.  Prices include printed instruction sheet and shipping.

        1-4 nodes...............................................$ 7

                      Wail on your fellow dealers!
                          by "Weird" Al Walker

        Al's first door is still his most popular, and with good reason!
        The Streets is a riotously funny simulation of a drug
        trafficking trade where anything can happen!  Make millions
        dealing drugs!  Blow away cops!  Narc on your rivals!  Why take
        a stupid risk in real life?  Play the game instead!  As the
        little old lady on the corner said, "Winners Don't Lose Drugs!"

        Because of this game's content, it is not recommended for use by
        users under 18 years of age.

        Prices vary depending on the number of lines you wish to run
        The Streets on.  Prices include printed manual and shipping.

                     You CAN Make Money With A BBS
                   (and have a lot of fun doing it!)

        Yes, it IS possible!  A veteran BBS operator tells all!  In this
        informative report, you will learn all the elements of a
        successful BBS, advertising strategies, profitable side
        services, and much more!  If you're a new sysop, or even if
        you're already running a BBS and are thinking of "Going Pay",
        you owe it to yourself to read this report!  Don't fall into the
        same old traps that put limits on so many (otherwise) great
        BBSes!  Turn your computer into a money machine!

        If the author of this report were to come to your office and
        give you all this guidance, his consulting fees would come to
        over $200!  Yet it's yours for only $15!

        Even if you follow only one suggestion in this report, it will
        pay for itself!

        The Ultimate BBS Music System!

        If you are running a BBS with chat music (and who isn't?) you
        need PagePlay!  PagePlay makes creating chat music a breeze with
        its simple text-based syntax!  Included conversion utilities
        allow you to create chat music files for RemoteAccess and
        Maximus-CBCS without using complex, cumbersome frequency tables
        and millisecond timing!  In addition, PagePlay's stand-alone
        music player will allow you to use chat music - written for RA
        or Maximus - on ANY BBS that allows generic DOS drops!  In
        addition, PagePlay has a highly-advanced "native" mode which is
        so powerful you may want to use PagePlay INSTEAD of your BBS's
        built-in chat music!  PagePlay has loops, blocks, arpeggios,
        vibrato, pitch bends and much, MUCH more!  Music is entered as
        NOTES, not Frequencies!  What's more, it comes with a utility to
        convert from PagePlay's native syntax to ANSI music!  That's
        right, now you can create ANSI music for your BBS without
        messing with complex control codes!  It's as easy as editing a
        text file!

           PAGEPLAY WOULD BE A GREAT DEAL AT TWICE THE PRICE!

        Full package, including 17-page manual:         $12.00

                  Cookie 1.0 (C) 1991,1994 Whirlwind Software
                           Written by Gerald Albion

        A generic random-text selector for BBSes and batch enhancement

        Cookie is designed to emulate this function on virtually any BBS
        which allows drops to DOS.  It can also be used to generate a
        random "Quote of the Day" message for each caller, and can even
        be used to select random ANSI welcome and goodbye screens.

        Cookie requires no configuration files and no door info drop
        files.  The only external file it requires is the data file
        which contains the "cookies".  Its output can be redirected to a
        comport or file using standard DOS redirection.  If you have
        ANSI.SYS or a similar ANSI driver loaded, you can even display
        random ANSI files!

        Cookie is also useful even if you don't run a BBS.  It can be
        used to enhance your AUTOEXEC.BAT file with a quote-of-the-day
        feature.  Impress your co-workers!

        Cookie is extremely inexpensive for such a useful little
        program!  It's just $7 U.S.!
