    I'm setting up Mystic with the latest version after not keeping up with
    Mystic for several years.

    There used to be a file called ANSIEDIT.ANS which was the full-screen
    editor's main template; it held the "To:" and "From:" and "INS/OVR" fields.
    To add To: and From: fields to your custom ANSIEDIT.ANS, you'd stick these in your ansi file: PIPE&1 (for To:) and PIPE&2 (for From:)

    Now I've discovered that this file is obsolete, and now we've got MSG_EDITOR.ANS, which looks a lot different. There's no PIPE&1 and PIPE&2;
    it's like Mystic just knows where to stick that stuff on its own.

    I looked for info on this in this echo & in the doc, but couldn't find anything. How can I stick To: & From: in my custom MSG_EDITOR.ANS?

    System Config -> Theme Editor -> Templates -> msg_editor.ini

    Happy BBSing! :)

    Thank you!

    Hey Metalhead, one place to look for answers is in the "What's New" file. Even though g00r00 hasn't put any updates into the mystic.doc file for some time,
    he does update that with a comprehensive change list. Most of your questions are probably answered in there, on wiki.mysticbbs.com, or digging into the Mystic Config editor.

    I suggest reading that file front to back, not just to answer questions, but
    to see the pure functionality that exists.

    Cheers,

    The whatsnet.txt also gets updated on the Wiki, a good tip is to use the wiki search to reveal stuff that you're interested in too... often that can
    surface links to topics mentioned in the various whatsnew.txt releases :)
