#    * BBS Link Script for Mystic BBS                                      *
#    ***********************************************************************
#    * This script will allow you to run BBSlink from your system.         *
#    * Installation:                                                       *
#    * (1) Go to http://www.bbslink.net and register!                      *
#    * (2) Locate the line below that says "BBS Auth Information".         *
#    *     Change the syscode, authcode, and schemecode to match what you  *
#    *     receive when you signed up.                                     *
#    * (3) Install this script into your mystic /themes/default/scripts    *
#    *     directory.                                                      *
#    * NOTE: This is a Mystic Python script, so you will have to install   *
#    * python 2.7 to run this. Refer to this page for help:                *
#    * http://wiki.mysticbbs.com/doku.php?id=python_install                *
#    * (4) In Mystic -cfg, you will need to add a menu option in your      *
#    *     menu editor:                                                    *
#    *     Menu Command: GY (Executable Python Script)                     *
#    *     Data: bbslink doorcode                                          *
#    *     or just bbslink which will bring up a menu of doors             *
#    *                                                                     *

Didn't think we needed a "RTFM" and that the kind of people using this script was more perceptive but a recent email sent over shows how much people do not read.

NOTE: Follow the instructions in lines 6,7,10,15 to get things installed and your authkey for bbslink. You'll also need a very plain Json file with three keys inside a single object for the config as defined on lines 43-48.
