> # BBS doors dropfiles.

> ### Dropfiles for Unix BBS systems.

> Not all options that are available under DOS or OS/2 can be used with Unix BBS systems and must be faked. The doorfile is written in the users homedirectory when the user starts a door.

> ### DOOR.SYS format.

> The door.sys format is a 52 lines ascii textfile, each line is terminated with a cr/lf pair. In the setup it is possible to force the creation of MM-DD-YYYY dates instead of the MM-DD-YY style. Newer doors sometimes need that.
