| So I'm trying to write a room program where after you look at a sign in the room a help file is loaded. Is that possible?
I've tried doing this without loading a help file but I run into formatting issues when just doing a simple exam program because I cant format the output on the MPECHO how I would like.
Basically I'm trying to create a basic ASCII graphic and have it be displayed after looking at the sign. So all alternative methods would be appreciated.
Any ideas?

| On the Herne's building guide it states that room programs can have an "exa" trigger but that their are options "{p}". I haven't been able to determine what these options are.
Can someone provide me with some information on this? | | Top |

| Okay so I was able to cross reference some different building information and it doesn't appear that you can actually program an "exa" trigger for a room program.
So if I was going to create a sign that displayed impormation would it be best to just create an object and then add the program to that? If so what object type best fits a sign? | | Top |

| I'm sorry, but I don't know the answer to your question. Possibly looking at the source code would help.
There are quite a few versions of the source, you might want to use SmaugFUSS if you aren't already.
