Hi Sean,

 SD> I made an ANSI screen (actually, several) and converted 
 SD> it to MECCA... I can't get the [remain] token to be 
 SD> interpreted right.  It worked before, but all of a 
 SD> sudden, I can't get it to work again, oddly enough.  
 SD> Ideas or suggestions?  I did use a double [[ at the 
 SD> beginning to make sure MECCAP would compile it right.

 SD> Here's the line in question:

 SD> === Cut ===
 ][repeatseq 2 right 9][cyan]You have [lightgreen][[remain] [cyan]minutes 

I use "remain" like this -

        [yellow remain cyan]

and it works fine for me, however I think your problem may stem from the
"repeatseq" token, the format does not appear to be correct to
me. Can you quote a few lines before AND after the problem one? Note that
you only need to use [[ if you want a single [ to appear in the output
without it being interpreted as a token identifier.

Cheers................pk.
