Re: New sysop with a few ques

As you can see, this file is a little garbled-looking. I can see that the CTRL codes that are causing it to look that way, and when they're actuall being displayed it looks much nicer. I was wondering if there's some way display the file a bit more "correctly" so that I can have an easier time editing it.
what i would do is draw the ansi and THEN, open up the .ans file in a text editor and add those AT codes at the bottom of the file. there are AT codes that specify the cordinates but i've never used them. i just use ansi positioning codes.
ie esc[1;1H is col 1, row 1
another thing that is easier is open up the file with thedraw and turn
on animation mode and THEN type in the AT codes where you want them to be. then they wont get pushed around.
I've looked at the .src files and they look easy enough to edit. I can pr just comment out commands in the default.src in order to restrict users f going to certain screens, right? I assumed default.src was for the main m
i would suggest starting out with the renegade command shell. it's easy to modify as a sysop and it's easy for users to understand.
turn off that shit where new users can pick from command shells. it's just lame.
