About E!

Excelsior! is a full featured BBS system that operates in a dynamic environment of data structures. Like the Amiga executive, Excelsior! is very flexible and open-ended by eliminating artificial boundaries on internal data. It supports as many lines as you want. Whether that's 2, 100 or more.

Feature highlights include:

• Local and Fidonet network message and email system.
• Usenet message and email import/export.
• XLink allows multiple BBS' to link up, share resources and allow cross-user interaction.
• Programmer's interface for third party extensions, utilities and online games.
• Local RIPScript graphical interface display.
• Full Amiga GUI for system setup, maintenance, and real time sysop control.
