    Does the MCI code |QO do anything or is it moot?

    If it works what is the file name it reads foerm and what is that called?
    Or is this an old MPL i need to get?

    This will show a random quote found in quotes.dat from the DATA folder.

    The format is:

    Random quote 1
    *
    Random quote 2
    *
    <anything here
    *

    Basically its a block of text ending with a * on its own line to signal where the quote stops. Mystic will spit out multiple lines if there are more than one, so you can do:

    My quote here is more than one line
    Here is another one

    And another one
    *
    This is a second quote
    *
