• Screen Info Codes (Depreciated)

    I am using the awesome G-Files Lister by Darryl Perry for my game scores and other text files but cannot edit the entrys anymore as I suspect you have made changes to mystic that broke this script. it uses pipe!8 to set the location as shown here in his docs.
    ---
    In order to correctly position the cursor when updating the entry title,
    G-Files also needs to know where to place the cursor. This is done by
    utilizing the !8 MCI code in the GFHI.ANS file. Place the !8 code at the
    position where the entry title begins.

    Is there a replacement for this code or can you suggest a work around for this script to get it working again?

    here's a copy of the zipped prog.

    I don't think that I have changed anything but it doens't mean something didn't break somewhere!

    Can you be more specific about what isn't working? Did this happen after you tried to edit the screen? The old ! codes are a bit
    tricky to use.

    ... We all live in a yellow subroutine...

    sure, after you run the script it will parse a directory you give after the GX like so GX \mystic\game_scores\ and give you a lightbar list of the filenames..

    you can then hit E to rename the entrys to suit your needs.

    When I hit E the cursor moves to the bottom of the screen and accepts no input you have to disconnect to get out of the script.

    thanks for the help, I feel like it's a simple issue but I am not script kinda guy =/
