  • Log on ANSI before the system info

    From Diamond Dave@diamond.dave@DMINE.remove-9xf-this to All on Tue Aug 11 14:06:52 2020

    I'm trying to have a log on ANSI file load before the system info displays.

    For example, on Vertrauen, the "Synchronet for 3.18" displays, then the Vertrauen ANSI loads.

    What file is that so I can edit it?

    In the past, I've edited the "login.js" file in the \exed directory and put "bbs.menu("login") function just before the login prompt is displayed. But I want the ANSI to display before that.

    Thanks!

    It's /sbbs/text/answer.msg

    Also, you can have /sbbs/text/banner.msg display even before
    answer.msg, if it exists.
