ĄĶÄĶÄĶÄĶÄĶÄĶÄĶÄĶŁ 10.0 : ..... : This was the beginning of this beautiful program! :) 10.1 : ..... : Got rid of the quick prompt, but still having a problem with Enter Keys (I'm working on it) 10.2 : ..... : Took out problem with Enter prompt completely (so no need for line 15 anymore in CFG file) did a speed up on the prompt, added Backspace, and added a clear screen after so it didn't run into the prompt. Make sure you tell your users that they can use the ol' MENU command :) ŚĶÄĶÄĶÄæ ³ Bye! ³ž ś . ĄĶÄĶÄĶÄŁ
