• Legacy RIP Software

    From BBS ( /u/aztracker1 https://www.reddit.com/user/aztracker1 ) to All on Tue Aug 4 18:43:06 2026

    I'm working on documenting and hosting RIP related technology files. Really having a hard time finding various versions of RIPTerm, RIPaint, etc.
    In particular if anyone has a working installer or zip for RIPTerm 2.2 or 2.3 and could reach out, I'd appreciate it. Similar for RIPaint 2.2 or 3.x.
    Aside: It's amazing how much legacy BBS related software is just gone now. I've spent the past couple days trying to (re)aquire tools that I just took for granted would "always" be available online and they're just not there. I wish I had done this a decade, or more ago when I had the chance. submitted by /u/aztracker1 [link] [comments]

    Edit: For reference, I'm working on documenting, including (re)construction of 3.x documentation. I'm missing what came from 2.1/2.2 from 3.x though.
    For example: https://github.com/bbs-land/remote-imaging-protocol/blob/main/version/3.x/ripscrip/README.md submitted by /u/aztracker1 [link] [comments]
