Hello all,

I was wondering if there is some sort of documentation out there for
input.exe? I guess that's the program that creates the input forms.

	Yes, if you click on the 'Rush' tab in the middle of the screen
	on the main page, you should see this:

		http://www.seriss.com/rush/index.php?tab=rush

	..the "input" docs link is in there, ie:
	http://www.seriss.com/rush-current/input/index.html
	

Mainly I was wondering if it was possible to get checkboxes in there?

	No, I didn't make check boxes yet, unfortunately.

	There is a 'select browser', though, which is new
	in 102.42a, of the format:

selectbrowser
{
    name     "Cpus:"
    dbname   "Cpus"
    type     multi
    option   "hosta"
    option   "hostb"
    option   "hostc"
    option   "hostd"
    option   "hoste"
    xysize   100 100
}

	If you're using the old format scripts which contain raw input
	commands for the entire form, you can just stitch that into your code.

	Or, if you'd like to see an example of how to insert that into the
	newer scripts that use "_____"s to create the input prompts, see:
	http://www.seriss.com/rush/patches/102.42/submit-combustion-with-select-browser.txt
	..that's a version of the combustion script that has a selectbrowser chooser
	for picking cpus.

	Again this is all for 102.42x and up only -- I don't think 102.41 version of input
	has the 'selectbrowser' capability.
