    Does anyone know if Sync makes use of a text.rip file or something else for areas that don't have a rip menu. Let me try to explain, In GAP, another bbs package I use, if a rip menu is unavailable, it will use a text.rip menu that will show the ans/asc menu with rip graphics surrounding the ans/asc menu that you still have mouse functions and it will show the ans/asc menu. The rip part of the surround has every letter of the alphabit plus the enter and esc keys that are mouseable. Does a rip menu exist in synchronet for this function. As always, thanks in advance.

    No, but you could make one. The "menu" system you're referring to sounds like a "command shell" in Synchronet, and command shells are completely scripted so you could do whatever you like.
