Hi all -

I have been trying to understnad the logic behind why changing menus is so involved, where as there is an actual editor for this provided by Mystic and other BBS software.  I can see the power of making menus run off JavaScript, but for those of us who know next to nothing about the language, have low vision and/or prefer the WYSIWYG of a dynamic menu system makes changing your BBS into something more unique a snap.  I've been running Synchronet on my lab VM and Mystic on my production host.  The only reason I went with Mystic is for the menu "overcomplexity".

Did I basically just say "Synchronet is not for me", or is this something that could be incorporated as perhaps a secondary option for menu creation/editing?
