I'm looking for an app (win32 or mpl) which will post a textfile to a mystic message base. Ive tried mpost_12 but it doesnt seem to work with 1.12. It errors with 'unable to locate messagebase definitions'. I am running it from the \mystic root directory as required.

The mpost program, to my knowledge, has been depreciated. You can
actually post a text file to the message base using mutil. I have
several texts that get posted on a weekly/daily basis.
Here is how you would set up a 'textpost.ini' file:
mutil has this ability built in now. Check the default mutil.ini file, under PostTextFiles.

Thanks Frank! That helps tremendously!
Just make sure the number of files you state you are going to post
matches the number of sections below that you set up :)

Signed up today -- BBS looks great! I really dig the DOOR/GAME sub menu ANSIs. I too am planning to get back into DOOR development shortly -
just trying to ease my way back into it. To the point I am relearning Pascal to play around with MPL scripting to start with a few ideas swimming in my head.
Best of luck and maybe we can coordinate later once we start focusing on some projects!

Count on it! I lost all of my old code back in 2000 to an apartment
fire. As luck would have it the fella that I sold the company to in 96
has decided that he has no interest so he sent me all of the old code.
He clearly has not had the misfortune of a fire. ;) With that I'm
putting some of my old IGMs back under LORD on the board and may even
get back to some IGM ideas I had. I have plenty of great ideas for
mystic MPLs. I think that collaboration certainly sounds FUN!
I was young when I wrote them so I am sure I could do a much better job now but it would be nice to at least see what I did back in the day.
Let me know when you get your IGMs working again and I'll check them out!

use the MX menu command to do that or mutil. mpost was designed for 1.07
