Just use them like you normally use your @X??-codes. As well I added some macros to format the text as @CENTER@ and @RIGHT@. Everything should be clear if you take a look at the file itself. NEWS.PCB> > > the border/header-file in pcb- or ansi-format. simple as that. btw: do _not_ use the included examples. They were done for other than your board. NEWS.CFG> > > each grafic has its own configfile. take a look at the examples and everything should be clear then. there may be up to 9 different configurations (should be enough imho) - call the files like NEWS9.* NEWS5.*. You do not have to use any special order. But keep in mind _not_ to rename the .TXT-file. it should be no problem to you to add this ppe to your login- or logoff- procedure or whatever. But if you would like to skip the randomizer you may e.g. always use config 5 by calling news with the parameter 5.
