    From Bucko@1337:3/102 to All on Monday, November 08, 2021 20:12:13
    Hi all... I posted this on the Fido Mystic Echo also, a little background.. I upgraded from A46 to A47 recently. After the upgrade, my InterBBS one liners stopped working, I can not VIEW the list, I can add to it but not view it. In addition to that my MRC window is wacked. The top bar which is approximately 4 lines, only shows 1, and the bottom is off and to high, because the top is not correct. I think I have that narrowed down to it being because the top portion of mrc_main.ans is showing in something other then 80 columns. Paulie420 has been a huge help trying to get this fixed for me, by sharing some of his files,









































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































    but it still doesn't show right.. I followed the upgrade instructions to a "T" even went back and did it manually. Still a no go on either MPL file.. Since others are not having any issues with this, I am sure it is a config issue.. I installed a brand new system on another drive and ran that system and it does the same thing, but if I install an A46 or below both files work fine. Could I have missed something in the upgrade somewhere?? Since these are not a Mystic main programs, I don't want to bother g00r00 with it, anybody else have this issue and fix it??

    Thanks in advance...

    Hey Al,

    The new ansi viewer in Mystic A47 requires you to change how you're displaying the files, each type of file will need an INI file created, which you will need








































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































    to create for MRC and for InterBBS one liners.

    You will also need to change the code within MRC and InterBBS one liners to use








































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































    the new syntax and use the new INI files.

    In the MRC MPL, look for a line like

    MenuCmd('GV','mrcscrl;x;y;'+ChatLog+';END')

    and change it to

    MenuCmd('GV','mrcscrl;'+ChatLog+' /end')

    The 2nd argument `mrcscrl` is the name of the ini file you created for this new








































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































































    display - i.e. mrcscrl.ini (just without the .ini)

    Hope this helps. If you need my .INI I will happily send it to you.

    Best of luck.

    Thanks brother, but it is still wacked.. I have a feeling the new ansiviewer didn't get installed properly.. I will have to try to figure that one out. I have installed the updates manually and via the install command of each file.. When I get home from work I will check it out again...

    Al
    Thank you again!!

    Figured it out, just have to find out what file didn't get updated.. My ansiviewer did not get updated fully, if you go into config, and edit themes and prompts then choose display files you are given an option to edit in 80 or 120 columns, mine does not give that option.. So... I am assuming the main ansiviewer file did not get updated or at least fully updated... Jeez...
