About 4 months ago I put up a BBS, and in the process of doing so I
discovered that there were a few unique considerations when dealing
with BBS software and speech synthesizers. I was just curious how
many blind SYSOPS there are out there. I'd like to discuss how you
have worked around some of the problems that crop up for the blind
SYSOP.
I am running RA V1.00 with FD 1.99C and TOSSCAN 1.00. I have found
them to be a good combination, and fairly user friendly with
speech. Anyone interested in talking about this?

i am remote sysop of a bbs in sacramento and we use spitfire bbs
software which is extremely friendly with speech from the sysop's
point of view. i must say though, i don't handle front door at
all but just monitor users and files and one thing we don't like
about spitfire is the way the program handles adding new files to
their appropriate file areas but the new version plans to correct
this problem. just thought i would throw my 2 cents in... dan

well I have run pc board and opus in my bbs career and opus by
far is much arder to setup but if you are committed to the fido
network it makes more since to run with the software that was
built around the network. the biggest problem with opus is the
scant documentation leaves so much unsaid and presummed that you
know it. you diffinitely need local help without it you are in
thick soup.
