I have changed a help file in the help.are file....
changed from the stock "help strength" to one that was more visually pleasing to me.. but it tells me there is a problem with the _ & | characters when i try to put those in the help strength file..
CHARACTER usage:
_ = ________ (Put in as a seperator line.. Trying to make my help files have a ASCII folder around them)
| = | BLAHBLAH | (again the ASCII folder thing)
& = &R (Trying to add color.. worked for other help file)
Q1.) why does it have a problem with the _ and | characters if they are both in the greeting and it dosent have a problem with those????
Q2.) and why can i add color to help gtell but not help strength?
Q3.) is there a color change limit or something?
Q4.) Oh yes.. and how do i add color to the greeting help file? the &* thing isnt working because.. i think its because ascii hasnt been set yet.. how do i change this
