It is possible to do at the telnet server level (theoretically). I've messed
with it in the past but I don't know if it is my limited knowledge of sockets
that is the problem or that its due to Visual Basic. I have written a telnet
server to run door32 doors straight up, but it only works with certain doors
and I haven't gotten it to return control back to the BBS once the door was
finished (it destroys both sockets). Why it run certain doors and not others
still baffles me as well (doormud and ambroshia don't like it).

Anyone that is more familiar with doing work with sockets is welcome to give
pointers and help find a solution.
