   Sure you can use the -Y menu command to ask a Yes/No question and then use the   
   "OK" acs to test if they answered yes or not.  Then if you wanted Mystic to pop   
   up a box you can use the #Y MCI code.  For example:   
      
   Command: -Y   
      Data: #Y#2#10#Confirm#Do you want to do this?#   
      
   Command: GO   
      Data: yesmenu   
    Access: OK   
      
   Command: GO   
      Data: nomenu   
    Access: !OK   
      
   This will cause Mystic to pop up a box, ask the question, restore the user's   
   screen after the box was responded to, and then goto "yesmenu" if they answer   
   yes or "nomenu" if they answer no.  No scripting or editing of ANSIs required.
