Heh.. I wrote that module in like 1993 or so. :-) You are still not
understanding that you do not "Insert my ANSI into a BIN file". You don't
insert anything in a BIN file. It's precompiled and you can't do anythign with
it except run it.
I'm not sure what version of my module you are running, but the later versions
supported using any ANSI file as a matrix screen. How to do this is fully
documented in the docs included with the module. If you wish, give me your
email address and I will send you the latest (freeware) version of the mod.

Synchronet comes pre-configured to import DIZ's automatically. But, you must
copy PKZIP.EXE and PKUNZIP.EXE into your SBBS\EXEC directory, or they must be
in your path. Putting them in SBBS\EXEC is recommended.
Also, refer to the ADDFILES section of the sysop documentation if you've got a
lot of files ot upload.
