PCBoard Programming Langage Manual (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCBoard)

In the early 90s I ran a small BBS from my bedroom. I had used a bit of BASIC, but programming doors for my BBS was my first actual programming. I just got rid of the book recently. Because of this start, I got the bug to start coding for real. After this, I migrated to the more traditional C++, but I still have fond memories of writing extensions for my BBS. (Not that I had many visitors... it was more just for fun).
