SORTA NEWBIE: MOBPROG and PATCHLEVEL 11

        I seem to have gotten MObprg for BPL8 successfully patched (after 
2-1/2 hours of dickin around..:)

        When I put a simple program into a fido, it dosen't seem to trigger. 
Ever.

I used the original sample program, and it didn't work.

I eventually got it down to:

> act_prg p Zippy pokes you in the ribs`
  poke Zippy.~
~
|
(may have an extra ~ at the end, but when I did it, I didn't get any format 
errors, so I did it properly there I think)

Now, there are a couple of solutions

either I install it to PL8 (Is whaat it was intended for, then apply all the 
patches to take it to 11 {ACK}),

 or someone can point me to the source for the newer version

Or point me in the direction to find what I need.  It seems that it isn't 
getting anything from act(). But not sure.

Anyone?
