PREVIOUS ADDITIONS:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

THE CARDINAL - EX FRL/LEGEND PC/RAZOR 1911 donates a TON
of captures! (Elusive dreams, akira, and many others)


HOLY CRAP! JANNO, EX RAZOR, COMES OUT OF NOWHERE AND GIVES
A CRAPLOAD OF AWESOME CAPTURES! THANKS MON!

MANUNTER/RAZOR gives HUGE logs of PARK CENTRAL,
STREET SPYDRS, SYSTEM 75, AND ROCK CREEK!

ALSO THANKS TO YUM YUM FOR THE FIRST MIRAGE CAPTURE!

Some File dates are NOT origional (to be fixed soon)..
and some of JANNO's captures had to be edited to save space.
(example: one 800k mirage capture had 30k of agents of
fortune in it)

-----------------------------------------------------------------
HOWTO VIEW ANSI'S:

as of V4.0 i have included ansiview.exe that i used when i had
the captures on my old drive that i since recovered =)

For best results:
Place ANSIVIEW somewhere in your GLOABAL PATH to work!
ie: c:\windows\ansiview.exe

OR: - if you don't want to use any exe's!

in your config.sys (dos) add ansi.sys to it. ie:

device=c:\windows\command\ansi.sys

OR: - if you want the BEST ansi viewer out there!

GET ACIDVIEW FROM www.acid.org in the APPS section!

ACID VIEW is available for DOS and LINUX and supports REAL
cool features like setting diferent resolutions, BPS (so
you can emulate like it was a real bbs), and other nifty
things.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

DIRECTORY STRUCTURE:

\usa     - Boards from the USA
\canada  - Boards from CANADA
\euro    - Boards from Europe! I will re-organize this as things grow.
\misc    - Stuff not classified as of yet: IF YOU KNOW: DO TELL ME

REVISION HISTORY:

V1.0 - initial collection. mainly captures given by ustasa and some from
my hard drive.

Roughly 17 files in the archive.

V1.01 - after going through some disks i came across some of the captures
i managed to take (grab00XX.ans). THese represent the ANSI format captures
i took during my LD 'career' and represent the 450 captures i lost =( =)
Nonetheless a good addition and example of what to expect.

V2.00 - Night warrior approaches me and he's just as much a scene
history nut as me.  Combining his captures, and his NFO's will
greatly enhance the quality of this collection. MUCH work is on
the way from our new partnership, some of which is visible in this
collection! enjoy!

V2.10 - A few more added. state of devolution, and agents of fortune.
with some captures (5 or so in one file) that are unclassified.

V2.11 - Added some stuff from COOL HAND/INC

V2.12 - added MIRAGE capture

V3.00 - added MIRAGE/UE/ALPHA 2010/ALPCALYPSE/FAST TRAX/etc/etc/etc/tc.

V3.01 - added the cardinal's captures

V4.00 - added TOAST's 'recovered' captures!!
