Trying to make sense of this source.
Is this the way it "should" appear? I loaded it into an old DOS editor and it
looks better than when I had it loaded in WORDPAD. WORDPAD was showing more
funky characters. What is a good editor to use?

# Display main Prompt
print " - c\r\n�  b hMain  n c�  h"
**not quite sure what to make of -c
\r\n = CRLF
What is the " b h" before Main, and the "n c" h after Main?
Per the manual regarding text colors.. the prompt code above does not appear to
include color information, this would be set in TEXT.DAT?

compare_ars exempt T   <<< what is this for? Time Used vs Time Left?
if_true
  print "@TUSED@"
else
  print "@TLEFTend_if
print "  n c[ h@GN@ n c] @GRP@ [ h@SN@ n c] @SUB@:  n"
** This makes sense, but what are the n c and h?

Are these formating codes the same I would find in a "C" reference manual?
If so I will refer to a "C" book.

This is very cool.

The manual mentions creating modules with BAJA, can you create full blow doors
using this language?

I AM starting to read through the manuals in more depth as I discover the level
of custimization.

Thanks Again
