- These are the specifications which are followed by Terminate. If you are a
- Sysop, you can include ANSI music in your menus and users who are using
- Terminate (or one of the few other terminal programs that offer this
- feature) could hear melodies or fancy tunes whenever they enter a new menu.
- Other terminal programs will just skip these codes - nothing else will
- happen. Maybe it will look weird on your screen, because your BBS system
- does not understand the codes - but it doesn't matter at all.
-
- This little code is used in the LOGO.ANS of DAN BBS (a Remote Access file
- shown at login):
-
- MB O3 T120 L2CO4CO3L6BGABO4L2CO3L2CL2AL1GL2CFL4EL6CDEL4FL3DL6O2BO3CDL4EL2C

- As you can see I clear the screen ([2J), right after the sound codes so
- that programs which don't support ANSI music won't see these codes.
-
- It's really simple to create this music. Hopefully many SysOps more will
- start using these codes, for example within online games etc.
-
- Small examples:
-
- MB O3 Sets octave 3
- MB T120 Sets tempo to 120 (default)
-
- You can use several statements in each line. It couldn't be easier! It's
- exactly the same command as the BASIC command "PLAY" from IBM BASIC or
- GW-BASIC, etc. Look in the documentation of these programs for more
- information.
-
- To get the latest version from DAN BBS, download A3E*.* or filerequest the
- MAGIC name A3E with the point system. latest version available on DAN BBS.
- Then you can easily make your own music in ANSI-menus. All MIDI and Sound
- BBS systems... MUST have this!!!
