Anyone have a suggestion of any pascal door games I can peruse? I'd like to see how they're written and, specifically, how they call out ansi graphics for the screens.

I hope there are some open sourced, at least.

I'm not too familiar with pascal based open source door games but I know
there are quite a few C based ones.

We do have a few people here on SciNet who have written pascal door games, maybe one of them will jump in and help answer any questions you may have.

There are a bunch of them but I don't have a list. I know Usurper is a big
one that was popular. There are old WWIV chain doors that are written in Pascal TW2001 and others.

There is a bunch of source to BBS' here which also might be useful http://source.thebbs.org/

Unfortunately, I can't think of much in the way of full Pascal door game code floating around, but you can find TONS of examples of door kits as well as
IGMs for games like LORD and other games.

Here's good place for some of that stuff:

Thanks for the link, I've bookmarked it.

For me, it's more about how the programs draw ansi graphics. I've been creating ansi screens using moebius with the hope they can be used in the game.

There are numerous ways you could store, read, and output ANSI in your door, but simple ANSI itself is well defined, and as long as Moebius isn't doing anything odd with what it outputs (to my knowledge it isn't) then you should
be good!
