THE MCI CODE SYSTEM
                             _____________________


Renegade has a system for displaying system information in all locations on
the board.  This is done using a set of codes called MCI (Message Command
Interpreter).  These codes are entered with the character "@" followed by
a specific character.  All the valid MCI codes are listed below.

       NOTE!: MCI commands are CASE SENSITIVE!
