Hi All,

You're probably getting tired of all the questions from me recently, but I think this one should be simple.

When doing a file listing, using the full screen lightbar mode, Mystic shows the area name in the upper right corner of the screen, and in the middle of
the top shows the number of files in the batch download. How is that number displayed on the screen?

The reason I'm asking is I have some long descriptions for some Fidonet file areas, and they are overlapping each other. I'm looking to move it over to
the left about 5 or 6 spaces, but I can't find what is displaying that number... I've looked in the prompts, it's not on the ANSi screen. Is it something hardcoded into Mystic?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Let me see if I can post a snippet of what it looks like...

File Listing F00o ADM: Weekly Fidonet Nodelist in ZIP

Behind the 00, it should say Fido. I'm looking for a way to move the 00 over
to the left a few spaces so it doesn't cover the name of the file group...

Yep there's a way, I'll do some digging.

I'm fairly sure it's a prompt in default.txt but also a bit stuffed trying to find it. It's a question that's come up before in fsx_gen but so far I have been unable to locate the exchange of info that took place.

From memory Gryphon knew the answer to this one :)

I'll keep digging.

I've been looking in default.txt, and haven't been able to find it either. I might have missed it though... :)

Thanks Paul.

Paul,

I found it. It's actually an MCI code in the ANSI file. I thought I had
looked at that, but didn't actually look to see what the "|!4" code was. I've got it edited and it's working great.

Thanks for looking.
