Just curious how to request a feature for the next update ?
I know on my old Telegard BBS back in the day, during the registration
it would ask if the case was correct on your last name, for example McBride vs Mcbride, and you would choose the case you wanted from a
list. Would be cool to have that feature added.
not sure how comfortable you are with custom stuff, but it should be possible to run a little baja script in place of the name input line..
in TEXT.DAT you would change 339 to @EXEC:GETNAME@
and then GETNAME.SRC would have some code to display the prompt, do GETSTR, check for Van, Mc, etc, and then UNGETSTR to place the result into the input.
then you would have to disable the stuff that enforces the case of the last name because your script would be doing it.
or just disable the automatic case enforcement of their name, skip all this entirely and let them do it. it's their name after all ;)
