Hmmm, when I delete textview.mpx, it completely fails to work at all,
actually. Makes me wonder if I have an old version, or not, but according to
my file bases, it's the exact same version as-is on your BBS, so.. I
dunno.. It is definitely using the textview.mpx as mandatory though.
It was even in the docs to move textview.mps to the script dir, and compile
it, and could be used optionally by itself.
