      TID: Mystic BBS 1.12 A47       MSGID: 1:267/157 0bd73ed5       REPLY: 1:129/215 a58b9206       TZUTC: -0500       On 09 Nov 2021, g00r00 said the following...                g0>         g0> The display file command in MPL is not related to the ANSI gallery/viewer        g0> commands. It just sends a file as is for the most part, so its more        g0> closely related to the "GD" menu command.        g0>               Gotcha on this...               g0> I am not sure I totally understand the problem here, but often times an        g0> ANSI editor will save a file that uses the 80th column without moving to        g0> the next line, meaning that it relies on the terminal automatically        g0> wrapping after the 80th character for the file to display right.        g0>               What is happening is in another post I alluded to an issue I am having with       MRC the main file is not wrapping to 80 column like it did in A46 and before,       I have gotten a mrcscrl.ini to use which works on a brand new install I did       but doesn't work on my upgraded system. I am using netrunner as my term       program, 80x24 screen as is the setup for Mystic.. When I try to run another       MPL InterBBS oneliners, when I try to view the listing it doesn't work either,       but I can add to it with no issues. I am just getting the feeling now that       something did not upgrade properly. On the new install if I go into Config,       and drop down into Themes/Prompts, if I choose option 4 display files, when I       choose a file to display it asks 80 or 120 column, my upgraded system does not       ask this, it goes straight to the screen..       LOL Have I confused you yet?!!?! LOL It's just driving me nuts that I can't       get this going properly. I upgraded via the docs using the install routines,       then even did it manually replacing files, so I know all of the files have       been replaced.               Thanks again for the response..       Al              ...
