thanks ;)

I'll get around to finishing the next version eventually.. it has some more 
stuff in it, including the ability to configure all the colors, etc.
i think it should be able to display a 10 line ansi, it should just scroll it 
(or does it give a more prompt?). If i put 10 lines for an ansi, then you'd 
either have 10 lines to have the user's name and a liner on the same line (so 
a smaller line, that was one of the problems with the old mex version) or 
only 5 liners.
another -minor- problem is the fact that my other computer died, (either the 
video card, motherboard, or both... :/ ) and that's the one i ususally use 
for programming (since this is os/2, and it's also constantly doing 
something.. dos programs don't multitask nearly as well as os/2 ones ;) )

well, i'm not the one that created the DECCA language. It's a part of JSdoor 
(latest (and probably last) version freq-able as "JSDOOR" (v1.50a)), designed 
by John Stephenson. That's what i used for the modem interface, make it 
pretty easy. I think the color codes follow mecca, tho i forget.

hmm... i think i meintoned to put the part of the ansi in that prompt. for 
example, with:
          --------
        /
       /
  ----|  Login:
       \
        \
          --------
Your login prompt would be "  ----|  Login:"
If you wanted colors: 
RED "  ----" YELLOW "|" WHITE "  Login:"
It will probably be a pain but it should work.. ;)
