    Is anyone running these doors on a non-sbbs system? Aside from wordle and x-news, they all refresh several times on start. I reported this to the
    author but was shrugged off. It's like enter has been hit like 5 times.
    Doors that have hotkeys and ignore non-important keys don't have that
    problem.

    Finally, with thanks to someone who was actually able to explain the bug in detail, these games are going to be patched for those of us who have boards that hand the control off to the door instead of maintaining it from the bbs itself. I've got a patch for KnK, but not Bowling Solitaire or Drag Racing yet. Yay!
