   Most BBS softwares don't use scripting or have a programming language that   
   work with them at all. Sure, a couple of the softwares brought up in this   
   conversation actually do, but most don't. So I'm not sure where this comment   
   comes from. You don't /need/ to program anything at all. Old school menu   
   editing, Modifying prompts, changing all the screens, putting content on there   
   that isn't the same as everyone else's, etc. doesn't involve programming.

   With SlyEdit, for example, you don't need control keys. On an empty line, "/Q"   
   can be used to quote, "/S" can be used to save, as well as other options. This   
   may even be an option in some other external editors, and maybe even   
   Synchronet's line editor (but I haven't used them recently, so that's why I   
   brought up SlyEdit specifically).   
      
   Regards,   
   Nick
