Description:   PPE (PCBoard Programming Executable) that you can replace
               PCBTEXT record #149 with.  
             
               What this PPE offers that PCBoard does not is to do some
               ANSI checking before ever even asking the caller if they
               want graphics or not.  
              
               By testing for ANSI before the prompt is ever issued,
               the appropriate default value can be set for the user.
               If they have ANSI capabilities (as per the [6n test
               then the default for the prompt will be "Yes".  Otherwise,
               the default will remain "no".
             
Installation:  Installing this PPE is very simple.  Use MKPCBTXT to load
               your PCBTEXT file.  Press F3 and enter 149.  You will now
               see the "Do you want graphics" record.  Simply change it
               to an ! followed by the full path and filename to the
               ANSI-D.PPE file.  That is all there is to it.

Command Line   You can control the wait time for ANSI and RIP detection
Parameters     from the command line.  The following are the only two
               valid command line parameters:
                
                  /ANSITIME:[seconds] or /AT:[seconds]

                     Gives you the ability to over-ride the default wait
                     time for ANSI detect of 2 seconds.  For example, if
                     you wish to make the new wait time 3 seconds, then
                     you would enter the following in PCBTEXT:
                     
                         C:\PCB\PPE\ANSI-D.PPE /ANSITIME:3
                                       
                                       or
                                       
                         C:\PCB\PPE\ANSI-D.PPE /AT:3
                  
                  
                  /RIPTIME:[seconds] or /RT:[seconds]

                     Gives you the ability to enable RIPscript detection
                     and to specify the default wait value at the same time.
                     If you do not specify the /RIPTIME or /RT parameters on
                     the PPE commandline then RIPscript detection WILL NOT be
                     enabled.  If you simply want to enable RIP and accept
                     the default of 2 seconds then add the /RIPTIME or /RT
                     parameters with no color on seconds parameter.  Example:
                     
                         C:\PCB\PPE\ANSI-D.PPE /RIPTIME
                          
                                       or
                                       
                         C:\PCB\PPE\ANSI-D.PPE /RT
                         
               
   Modifying:  Feel free to modify the PPS (source) file as your needs
               dictate.  That is why the source is included.  :-)
               
And last, but certainly not least.   HAVE FUN!
