I guess bulletins are different because it's not a menu per se, it's a Mystic
script that displays a menu.

So, if you felt like it, you could edit the bulletin.asc in the
themes/default/text directory (assuming everything is bog standard).

Probably better, though, would be to edit the bulletin menu option (standard
is off of the main menu).

It's the (GX) Execute MPL program
with data of
bulletin bulletin bullet

If you change the second bulletin (e.g. bulletin newbull bullet), it _should_
display whatever .ans or .asc file you specify. At least that's what it says
the program does, at the top of the bulletin.mps script.

Is that what you were aiming for? I know I personally still struggle with how
to easily edit the bulletins, or give updates, or whatever, as it's not the
most intuitive bit of Mystic.

But that should put you on your way to editing the header. Do tell us what
issues you run into.
