    Greetings g00r00!


    Do you think you could give me that xy command for setting the cursor in my login screen is a specific spot again? I have tried it from the wiki and it I cant seem to get it, when I tried what you had messaged me a month or so ago it had worked. I cant find that message where you had given it to me...

    Much appreciated.

    You can move to an X or Y location using |[X01 and |[Y01 where 01 is the two-digit coordinates. So if you had:

    "Enter something here:"

    You could put that text at location X=10, Y=5 by doing:

    "|[X10|[Y05Enter something here: "

    Hope that helps.
