| 1. Introduction |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
See HISTORY.DOC for changes since v1.0 and v1.1.
Enhanced Message Edit Commands (EMEC) is a PPE which replaces your message
edit prompt: (S) (A) (U) etc. This PPE is an attractive looking, lightbar, and
hotkey driven replacement. This was written in PPL 3.0 and for use only with
PCBoard 15.2+.
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 2. Installation |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
If you are upgrading from v1.1, then replace the old EMEC.PPE.
Simply run INSTALL.BAT for an automated installation. For the manual
method, edit your PCBTEXT and have prompts 163 and 222 point to this ppe.
Ie: !C:\PCB\PPE\EMEC\EMEC.PPE Also, prompts 164 and 629 will need to be
blank/empty.
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
| 3. Configuration |
+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+
Edit EMEC.CFG to change the two options available inside. Edit LB.CFG for
text and colours associated with the lightbars. Edit STRINGS.CFG for all text
strings and prompts which get printed. Each file is rather small and could
have been put in one big file, but it is more organized in this manner.
Edit EMEC.PCB for the header that is displayed before the main command
prompt is printed.
The PPE will still function without any of these files, as then it will
use the built-in defaults. However, it most likely clash with your board's
colour scheme. :)

If you wish to have the source, simply ask me for it. The PPE itself is
about as configurable as you can make it, so I do not anticipate many requests.
Otherwise, if you need to reach me for some reason, you can send internet
email to "drew@xinet.com", or leave me a message on Attitude Net, or call my
board: The Silicon Phalanx at 310-575-8567 and apply for access.
Peace,
