    I could fill a small book on editing post processor files and the MP languge so I will give you a few clues first and see if you can figure this out for yourself. Some people figure it out pretty fast, and some don't. So let's see what you can do on your own first. If you get frustrated I can give you more in depth help. If all else fails I will alter a post for you. So check out these clues first.
