• Text Section viewer alternative?

    From acn@1:103/705 to All on Fri Jun 4 18:44:59 2021
    Hi,

    I would like to offer some text files, eg. game instructions of stuff like that.
    For this, I found the "text section" quite useful with one exception:

    Is it possible to have the files be viewed with a more ... comfortable viewer that allows going up AND down, even by single lines just like many message viewers?

    Or is there an alternative mod available?

    Thank you very much!

    Regards,
    Anna

    I use bullshit.js, but is a slow to scroll the text.

    There's xtrn/ansiview. Maybe give that a try.

    Having a simple scroll up/down display of a text file's contents seems like a simple enough mod to create. And adding it to the existing text section module (exec/text_sec.js) would not be too difficult. I'll give that some thought as well.
