I have a client I'm building a BBS/web site setup for and I'm testing it on my
own system first. Functionality is growing, but I've got it checking if the
user can "login" to my site based on their login information from the BBS and
once authenticated, you can see the last 5 messages from my Fido and Metronet
message bases. I am still working on how to display the ANSI graphics, but the
rest works pretty well.

Thanks to g00r00 for the help with the pascal code to get me in the right
direction.

If you want to see the work in progress: https://thepotogold.net

It is written in .Net core and has 4 components:
-- The website
-- A API that handles the authentication
-- An applet that reads the message bases and user information
-- And a SQL database that houses some of the user and message information
(for speed of access from the site, since the BBS is in the DMZ of my home
network and the web site is at an offsite virtual machine).

It was has been a fun experience and I've picked up on some of the nuances of
Pascal/Delphi.
