Subj : Possible Addition to Mystic To : G00r00 From : Black Panther Date : Fri Nov 19 2021 06:14 pm Hi g00r00, I've been working on updating Castle Rock, to utilize both 132x37 and 160x45 modes. One thing that I have on here is text boxes which are used as the mnewscan and fnewscan menus. My question, is there a way to use the 'V'-type text box, and indicate to center the box on the screen, depending on the terminal size? For example, for 80x25, I have the following set up as a the prompt: #V#2#25#8# Scan for new messages? #A-All...etc If there was a way that we could put in, say, #V#2#X/2#8...etc, where X was the max x, or TermSizeX (using mpl terms), divided by 2 to find the center of the screen, it would make things a bit easier. This is something that can be done pretty easily with MPL, but this might be something that could help out other sysops. I know you've been busy, and really want to get a47 finished, so don't worry about it right now. This is something that can wait until a48. ;) Thank you for your hard work on Mystic, and also for considering this. --- Black Panther(RCS) aka Dan Richter Castle Rock BBS telnet://bbs.castlerockbbs.com http://www.castlerockbbs.com http://github.com/DRPanther The sparrows are flying again... ....
