I wish I could learn MPL, I am trying but it is not coming to me. I have ideas, but I can't get them into MPL. I recently tried using AI to create an MPL to do something and it didn't work. I won't give up though, I will get it! Other then that I haven't really done much with it lately, been working on a new PFile disk for Image BBS to go along with my first disk I released over a year ago. Plus working on updating my BBS on a stick project. Hopefully, over the summer I will get back into doing things to the Mystic..

I've been working on my Login processes as of late. For now they are at the v1.0 stage.. v2.0 will look a lot different if I can figure out how to do something.

I'm currently trying to figure out the best way to find out if there is any new messages is in all echo's and on a per echo basis. Its just a check with nothing to be displayed to the user.. ie. Checks to see if there are any new messages, returns a 1 to the MPL if yes... returns a 0 if no... or something similar.. only it all happens in the background. I would then display strings to the user based on what the check returns.

I just have no clue how to do that. I'm not a programmer at all but I have a better then basic skillset to adapt code.. or build simple code.. etc..

I've written quite a number of MPL apps and games. Most Mystic BBSes run at least one of my games and many run MRC.

I recently wrote a utility that is similar to Midnight Commander. I call it Mystic Commander. It's a light-bar driven file manager. You can use it to copy files from anywhere within your BBS directory to another. It can view and edit ansi's and texts and run MPL programs on the fly.

I also have a number of games in the works. Pyramid Solitaire, Free-Cell Solitaire, Spider Solitaire, and Sudoku.

Yeah dude I have used quite a few of your additions, MRC is definitely the most popular door in all of BBS land I think, you certainly paved the way to bringing everyone in the scene closer together. I'm sure others have said it too but thank you!

I'm looking forward to seeing your new games that you're working on, and Mystic Commander sounds super neat - I have to check that out. Sounds like a really sweet Sysop utility. Does it have like a config file or settings such that a sysop could configure it to allow lower security levels different access, for example s255 can do all the things, s10-s30 could be "jailed" to the files directory and only download/list and not move/edit/copy/delete/etc? Could be a neat new file index lister with the ability of directory hierarchy.
