  • question on \text\menu\logon*.*

    From Xerxes@1:103/705 to All on Tuesday, February 01, 2022 10:00:22
    OK, I could have missed this in the documentation, if I did I appologize in advance...because huzzah

    Is there supposed to be a pause between LOGON and LOGON2 (and LOGON3 etc) ?

    If there is not, is the best way to achieve this with Crl-A codes the messages displayed?

    73,

    Tom

    hi! i use a ansi/asc file as separator sometimes

    LOGON.asc
    LOGON1.asc
    LOGON2.asc  <- this act as separator
    LOGON3.asc
    LOGON4.asc  <- this act as separator
    LOGON5.asc

    etc..

    i think that also you can use P ctrl-a code or @PAUSE@ @-code

    If the user has screen-pausing enabled, there should be a pause on each screen-full and upon any screen-clearing.

    If there is not, is the best way to achieve this with Crl-A codes the messages displayed?

    Ctrl-AP or @pause@ (uppercase).

    IF your LOGON2 file begins with a screen-clear sequence, it should be auto-pausing before. If it's not, that could be because you have ANSI animation sequences in LOGON.*.

    Gottcha, OK, that makes sense, there is ANSI animation sequences in LOGON files I was trying to use.

    Thanks!!!

    In that case, Synchronet cannot accurately count displayed lines, so you'll want to put an explicit pause at the end or insure that each "screen" starts with screen-clear sequence.
