    I have a file that BullsEye bulletins refuses to display. I was wondering if its location, in the /sbbs/xtrn directory (instead of in a subdirectory) mig

    It turns out not to be path-related. A text file in the same directory works fine. There just seems to be something about that .ans file that it doesn't like, althoughwhen peeking at it in other editors, I see nothing obviously wrong (although I am definitely no expert)

    Type ;eval and hit enter, it'll prompt for the parameter:

    Thanks!

    That does display the file properly, for me. It's the only method to do so, thus far.
