i think he took over in 4.06. he then did 4.07 and the last one was 4.08.
I don't remember the odd colors or spelling mistakes. i think there's some
hardcoded parts where there are display issues.
i prefer the original lordtxt file. btw, anybody can make whatever menus they
want. you can do it by hand or there's a utility that will swap it out via
command line and you use the marker name in the lordtxt file.
one of my bbses rotates menus. AND igms.
He also added in a new registration scheme because someone told gameport there
were regcodes in the wild. I'm not a fan of the additions but in his defense he
was only adding what people suggested to him.
