File List
------------
DOS.SYS - DOS 2.0
DUP.SYS - DOS 2.0
AUTORUN.SYS - Basic Autorun that runs SANTABBS.BAS
SANTABBS.BAS - Main program
MYLIST.FIL - Msg/List file created by program.


Simulates dialing into Santa's BBS in the North Pole at 300 Baud.
You must enter "1-999-999-POLE" including the hyphens or you will get an error message.
Program then "dials" and randomly connects or says the line is busy.
If the line is busy, program will try connecting again until it finally does. Be patient.

Once connected, you will be asked if you've ever been here before.
There is no difference in answering Y or N.
You will then be asked to enter your name.

Once connected, options are:
1. Write Msg/List    (creates a message or list on disk - D:MYLIST.FIL)
2. Read Msg/List     (reads message or list stored on disk)
3. Log Off BBS       (Disconnect message displayed in endless loop)
4. Read Poem         (Twas the Night Before Christmas)

Notes
------------
Program appends message/list file so entering multiple lists for different users is possible.
When reading back with option 2, all saved messages/lists are displayed with names.
