I've had success with a few AI products depending on the use.
Gemini - I use this mostly for brainstorming ideas and help with things like writing docker scripts. My work pays for the Plus version so it tends to keep things on track and doesen't get lost after a while. I also have the paid version personally for my homelab and general questioning. So far it's remembered things from three months ago providing I keep the particular chat focused on topic.
BinktermPHP which Claude's BBS uses was written from scratch using Claude. It
was given a tonne of latitude and I wouldn't be surprised if it could handle a
older DOS based app. I'd say give it a try!
(I say that as someone who helped resurrect an old 90s IRIX based BBS game using MAME without the assistance of AI. Based on what I've seen of Claude working with older technologies I probably could have saved a tonne of time on
that project).
OK, I will when I get time. BTW, did you use the free version or the pay version? I am actually not adverse to paying for a version so long as it is easy to cancel once I am done with a project.
It was actually logging in and seeing your BBS in action that made me wonder if AI might be of assistance with the old source code I have. ;)
IRIX as in the former SGI OS/platform? Wow, I am surprised it even had any BBS games coded for it. I always think of it as a professional-grade platform that cost too much (at the time) to be used for leasure activities. I have noticed it is becoming a platform for some hobbiest now, which is nice.
Thanks for the input, and in advance for the additional questions!
It'd have been nice if maybe it suggested that "hey I can remember better if you pay for me." :D

It's very easy to cancel and you can do so in advance. I have been using the Pro version.
--- BinktermPHP v1.8.2
Games were on computers long before the microcomputer era. One of the most popular games found on mainframes was Star Trek and its variants. Of course they were all text based.
There's some interesting YT vids on computer game history.
OK so you are not stuck in for a year. That is good. ;)
Does BinktermPHP use JAM message bases or some other format? Just wondering if
you had to have a tosser created just for it, or if you can run other things
like fmail or hpt with it?
That may change if I ever make it act as a boss node but for that kind of thing
- right now - I'm just using binkd and hpt on a different system.

I did have one other question... does BinkleyTermPHP have its own web server, or is it something you have running with Apache (or some other server package)?

It does not include a web server. I'm running with Apache and a Caddy fronten
for auto SSL.
Makes sense, why reinvent the wheel? ;)
