      MSGID: 1:317/3 34329dab       TZUTC: -0600       TID: hpt/lnx 1.9.0-cur 2019-01-08       Hi g00r00,              I hope you and your family are doing well.               I've got a couple of suggestions for additions to Mystic, particularly in the       MPL end of things.               1. Would be possible to add a function in MPL similar to the IsNumber function       in FreePascal?              For now, I have written a function that does something close to what I need.       If I'm going to be taking user input and will need to Str2Int, I want to make       sure it's an actual number. ;)              Here is what I've put together. It's untested, so there may be issues with it.              Function IsNumber(str:String):Boolean       Var        c : Byte        a : Array[1..10] of Boolean       Begin        IsNumber:=True        For c:=1 to Length(str) Do        If Ord(str[c])<48 Or Ord(str[c])>58 Then        a[c]:=False        Else a[c]:=True        For c:=1 to Length(str) Do        If a[c]=False Then IsNumber:=False       End              2. Not sure about how possible this is, but could a text box, such as the       vertical, horizontal, etc, be used to ask a user a question and have them type       in a response? Such as:               Enter your BBS Name        [ ]              And be able to save the response as a string?              I've been having fun putting these in different places within Castle Rock, and       think this would be a great addition.              Thanks for all of your hard work and effort you put into Mystic. It is greatly       appreciated!                     ---              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...              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 2021/01/14 (Linux/64)        * Origin: Castle Rock BBS - bbs.castlerockbbs.com (1:317/3)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 105/81 114/705 120/340 123/120 131 129/305 226/30       SEEN-BY: 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 452 550 664 700 981 1016 1017       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 249/206 307 317 400 282/1038 292/854 298/25 305/3       SEEN-BY: 317/3 322/757 342/200 633/280       PATH: 317/3 229/426           |
