• Editing menus, headers and prompts.

    From DavidG@21:3/188 to All on Tue Oct 15 16:58:16 2024
    Hi All,

    I'm restring my BBS journey with Mystic which I've found to be complete and easy to use *except* for the afct that whenever I use the built-in ANSI editor and specifically I change (translate into panish) the ansimhdr, it gets screwed, my edits show buy the variables showing From/to/subj all of the msg details vanish, even if I use OVR on the editor and nothing else, they just dissapear.

    Does anyone kno of a working of of editing ANSI screens/headers and not messing the up in the process?. I mean if te Mystic built-in editor screws them, what else can I use?.

    Best regards and thanks

    PS: Any menus translated into Spanish?, please not from Spais, not partocurarly fond of the way they call stuff, yup same language but we do not have "fecheros" here, we have "archivos" (files).

    Moebius seems to be the editor to use these days:

    You could also use "TheDraw" in dosbox.

    Muchas Gracias, voy a darles unamirada. Me da muchos lios el nativo de Mystic, como mencioné en un msj en esta área, cada que edito las cabeceras, algo se daña.

    PD: ¿Por qué mmurió el área FSX_ESP?.

    Yup, definitely have to try that, have to figure out a good strategy which now is just to save a backup of files and restore if something goes sour.

    I remember TheDraw, it was my go-to back then, haven{t tried DOSBOX, worth fiddling with it?.

    I find AcidDraw to be a bit superior. The dragging of text is smoother and
    my BBS doesn't support SAUCE, so it cuts that garbage out easily. It just seems to be a better experience and works mostly the same.

    Most of my stuff is on Proxmox too, or docker on a Linode VM.

    I'd run a Linux desktop at $dayjob (as I did for years at $dayjob-1), but this time around I need things like AutoCAD that just aren't available for Linux. So I use what I need to get the job done.

    $dayjob-1 was more network engineering oriented, and Linux was ideal (for me) for terminal sessions, development, etc.

    I've used OSX as a daily driver in the past too.

    Cool, last month I repurposed a laptop and setup my mini-pve 12GB RAM and this Win10 VM.

    I also installed a TrueNAS Scale bare-bone on a more powerful PC and I'm testing VMs on it but managing is better on Proxmox.

    I like the way mcaos works, I have an old macbook pro with a sollen battery, not working and in my time I built a hackintosh. it was a nice time, I used paralels and VMs integrated quite nicely.

    I'm passionate about networking, linux and tech in general.

    Now going back to the point I'll try those ANSI drawing tools because it's so frustrating thata by just changing two letters on a ehader file the whole thing is destroyed.

    I missed these talks ;)

    Cool, last month I repurposed a laptop and setup my mini-pve 12GB RAM
    and this Win10 VM.

    Nice. I was running on a Dell R920 with 192GB RAM, a bunch of HDD's, etc, etc, but downsized to a 2nd hand HP desktop last month in an attempt to reign in the power bill :-) Shoehorned a couple of spinning rust drives into it, an SSD, and an NVMe drive - gets along OK.

    I also installed a TrueNAS Scale bare-bone on a more powerful PC and I'm testing VMs on it but managing is better on Proxmox.

    Same here - I have a Supermicro 1RU box running TrueNAS scale. Just has the one VM running on it though - the Proxmox backup server for backing up the other machine :-)

    I do networking for a living, I train people for soem brands and do some consulting $dayjob was as an ISP Network Engineer andit runs MikroTik (Linux derivative)

    My last job was managing the global transit network for a large Australian ISP. Mostly Cisco based unfortunately (we had some Juniper/HP in other parts of the network). I'd be seriously looking at Arista if I were still there.

    We did use some Mikrotik for out of band access. If I was too lazy to CLI into them then I'd run winbox under wine (although the new native Linux Winbox works quite well - I have Mikrotik WiFi AP's at home).

    I didn't mine OSX, but issues getting software to build pushed me away from it. Was easier to develop software that was going to run in a Linux environment on a Linux workstation.

    Ha, yeah. The older Mikrotiks didn't like DDoS attacks much either - would run them out of CPU :-( We were fairly lucky where I was - our DDoS attacks were almost always well under 500Gbps. Other than potentially filling a few ports, the routers were generally fairly unaffected.

    Hi All,

    I'm restring my BBS journey with Mystic which I've found to be complete and easy to use *except* for the afct that whenever I use the built-in ANSI editor and specifically I change (translate into panish) the ansimhdr, it gets screwed, my edits show buy the variables showing From/to/subj all of the msg details vanish, even if I use OVR on the editor and nothing else, they just dissapear.

    Does anyone kno of a working of of editing ANSI screens/headers and not messing the up in the process?. I mean if te Mystic built-in editor screws them, what else can I use?.

    Best regards and thanks

    PS: Any menus translated into Spanish?, please not from Spais, not partocurarly fond of the way they call stuff, yup same language but we do not have "fecheros" here, we have "archivos" (files).

    What are you trying to translate at this point in time, and why? Just try creating the ansi, plugging in the MCI codes (which if we're just referring to From/To/Subj/Date/Time, those really don't need to be translated? I don't think Mystic's MCI codes are usable in multiple languages. You're better off using the MCI code as is, and if it needs translation after the fact, do that in your string editor or language "theme" or whatever.

    Otherwise, Pablodraw seems to work fine for me. I'm not sure what the state of Mystic's ANSI editor is, or if it was ever fine tuned for more detailed tasks, so that might be something someone else will have to chime in on.

    Does anyone kno of a working of of editing ANSI screens/headers and not messing the up in the process?. I mean if te Mystic built-in editor
    screws them, what else can I use?.

    From what I recall, opening the ansi screen, and putting your MCI codes where you want and in the color you want them is all that is needed. I never knew there was any translation in the editor itself.

    You could also try just using a text editor and plugging in the MCI codes where you want them, but since the ansi isn't translated, it might be a little more difficult to position them where you want them.

    What I've done in the past, is just open the ansi with a text editor, and go to the very last character on the last line. Then, with MCI positioning codes (ie: (pipe)[Xxx and (pipe)[Yyy) put the cursor where I want it, then put the MCI code for the display, then locate the cursor to the next location, etc. A little more tedious but then all of your extra work is at the end of the file, and not mixed up in the middle of the ansi.

    PS: Any menus translated into Spanish?, please not from Spais, not partocurarly fond of the way they call stuff, yup same language but we
    do not have "fecheros" here, we have "archivos" (files).

    Honestly, I don't know. I think at some point g00r00 was looking for people to translate to different languages, but nobody jumped forward with any ambition.

    As for Spanish, I'm fairly certain there's a few sysops in South America running Mystic, and if, by chance, they're not connected here (FSX) they most likely are connected to Fidonet. You could try them, but other than that, you might be on your own to do the translation. :(

    Nick

    I'm restring my BBS journey with Mystic which I've found to be complete and easy to use *except* for the afct that whenever I use the built-in ANSI editor and specifically I change (translate into panish) the ansimhdr, it gets screwed, my edits show buy the variables showing From/to/subj all of the msg details vanish, even if I use OVR on the editor and nothing else, they just dissapear.

    That sounds like the ANSI editor is somehow losing, or corrupting, the display codes that cause Mystic to display that information. Strikes me as a bit odd that Mystic's own ANSI editor would do that (you'd think if anything was going to work, it would).

    Does anyone kno of a working of of editing ANSI screens/headers and not messing the up in the process?. I mean if te Mystic built-in editor
    screws them, what else can I use?.

    I"ve just been using vi myself - but then I've only been doing small tweaks. If/when I do more substantial things then I'll use an ANSI editor. I've installed icy_draw to play with - just haven't had any playing time, so can't vouch for how well it works.

    Hello tassiebob!

    Those were my exact same thoughts, if Mystic's editor cannot do it, nothing can, and as all you know it's hard to mess somethuing up and then try toi get it back thw way it was so I play safe and *always* make copies of folders I want to edit.

    Does anyone kno of a working of of editing ANSI screens/headers
    and not messing the up in the process?. I mean if te Mystic

    I use Moebius to edit ANSI screens. It's great. Here is a link to
    download it:
