    When I use the menu command from my BBS I just get 1 character repeating forever...

    I've tried 'usessl = 1' and 'usessl = 0'
    python3 mrc_client.py seems to connect fine and my BBS shows in /BBSES when I
    connect to another BBS w/MRC
    I have all the .ans files in my mystic/themes/default/text directory. mrc_config.py is completely filled out.
    menu command is GX with mrc_client as data.
    I'm using MRC 1.3.7 Alpha
    Mystic BBS v1.12 A48
    I did compile mrc_client.mps with ./mplc -t and it said it compiled ok.

    Any suggestions?

    I had the exact same issue and it had to do with missing files in the themes/default/text dir. I know you said you copied them all... Did you double check ownership & permissions? Just a thought...

    I did not copy them all =p I only copied the mrc_client.mps file. I figured this out right after I posted. Thanks for the reply!
