New file required for operations. It is called "PULL.MNU" not a pcboard .mnu
but my own personal one for the menu system. It will contain the initial names
for the first set of menus. This gets rid of the hardcoding of their names as
"FILE, MESSAGE, SYSTEM, DOOR, UTILS". It will also allow you to have more then
5 menus going across.
The format for this file is:
1st line: name of first menu
2nd line+: name of next menus till end (can be up to 8 menus across).
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In main file: if you want to display text on line 21 and under skip one
line after the TOP PART of the menu display and type in the text you want to
be displayed as it should be displayed.

In PULL.MNU file it now supports RIP if you want it to.
1) If you don't want rip support add one line on the top that says "NO"
in all upper case letters. Nothing else has to be changed.
2) If you want rip support for changing menus:
Line one should say "YES"
Do this for each menu:
1) A menu name
2) starting X coordinate
3) Starting Y coordinate
4) Ending X coordinate
5) Ending Y coordinate
That should create a rip field on the users menu bar to allow them to
select a menu with the mouse and change straight there. Will detect rip
and won't send rip codes if the user does not have RIP support on his side.

1) Menus are now completely in the menus you define (no hard coding of sidebars
so you have to draw them yourself in the menu files)
2) Added in PPL 3.01 use of functions to cut down on code, got rid of
twenty strings, got rid of the need for the "*.FLG" files so you can
delete them and get some space back (also saves time when adding
menus).
3) Again for those who didn't realize what it meant YOU CAN DELETE THE
"*.FLG" FILES FROM YOUR HARDDRIVE THEY ARE NO LONGER NEEDED!!!
4) All of these new features and changes have sped up the PULL DOWN menu
system so that it will run faster on both sides.
