; TBBS RIP Menu Macros
; Sample SDL Source Code
;
;
;
; -------------------------------------------------------------------------
; SAMPLE SDL FILES IN THE RIP KIT
;
; RIPMAC.SDL (This File)
;
; A series of SDL macros which can be used to implement a
; RIP/ANSI/TTY menu system in TBBS with a minimum of effort
; using a design developed by eSoft. USE AS-IS WITHOUT
; MODIFICATIONS.
;
; RIPKIT.SDL (*NOT* This File)
;
; An example of how to use the SDL macros provided in the
; other SDL file (above) to create a TBBS menu system.
; DO NOT USE AS-IS, since you'll need to make your own
; menus.
;
; RIPFLAG.SDL (*NOT* This File)
;
; Created during installation of the RIP Kit, it designates
; the flag(s) for a RIP user.
;

; IMPORTANT NOTE
;
; Please PRINT OUT and READ THROUGH this entire document before you
; attempt to use this SDL code. Although easy to use, various aspects of
; this code are somewhat involved and can take some time to understand.
; DO NOT jump into this without first reviewing it fully and gaining an
; understanding of how it's applied.

; GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THIS SAMPLE CODE
;
; As explained above, this file contains examples of how to apply and use
; SDL macros we've created in order to make a RIP/ANSI/TTY menu system
; with TBBS.
;
; PLEASE UNDERSTAND that this SDL code will implement *OUR* menu designs
; in RIP, ANSI and TTY formats. If you do not like these designs, they
; are not easily modified. You can use the RIPMAC.SDL file as a prototype
; for how you might approach developing your own RIP macros, but it is
; extremely difficult and time consuming develop such macros on your own.
; If you don't like these designs, we recommend you use a different
; approach to making RIP menus and abandon this sample SDL code entirely.
; Refer to the RIP Kit documentation for further instructions.
;
;
;
;
;
; These are all the RIP meganum substitution macros called within each
; 'Item#' macro to translate the hot-key to meganum format for RIP.
; NOTE: HOT-KEYS USING THIS SAMPLE SDL CODE ARE LIMITED TO THESE
; HOT-KEY CHOICES -- OTHER KEYS CANNOT BE USED!

; This macro draws the background button for the RIP menus,
; displays the given title for the menu on top of that button,
; and displays a text-only button above the menu for the name
; of your BBS (it is made a text-only button so that the text
; will always be centered for you).
