I just wanted to let you know that last night I had a stab at my first
MPL script for Mystic. It went super well, thanks to StackFault
supplying me with some incredibly useful documents containing everything
I need to know about the language.

How do I get a copy of your MPL script and, if possible, these incredibly useful documents =)

Me too! I am trying to find out how to open text files and read data but I can't find any documentation on that.... so I was about to revert to Turbo Pascal documentation, but if there's MPL official stuff, then I'd love to get my hands on that.

My First MPL script prints an 80x24 grid and plots a point on it so far.
That's it ;)
