HI what i am trying to do is have my title page print over the whole screen and then have my program run in the middle of that screen

This is my code so far. this does work but i think it can be easier that this to do

Spoiler

– Computer ID 10

function Title()

term.clear()
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
print(" Welcome ")
print(" ################################################ ")
print(" | | ")
print(" | | ")
print(" | | ")
print(" | | ")
print(" | | ")
print(" | | ")
print(" | | ")
print(" | | ")
print(" | | ")
print(" | | ")
print(" | | ")
print(" | | ")
print(" | | ")
print(" | | ")
print(" ################################################ ")

end

function StartUp()

term.setCursorPos(15,6)
print(" This bit working ") – just lets me that the progrma is in the correct spot
x,y,z=rednet.receive()
if y == "Activate" then
term.setCursorPos(15,9)
print("Hello, it is working") – lets me it receive the code and working
else
print("Hello, No not working ") – lets me code received is not correct and not working
end
end

rednet.open("back")
Title()

StartUp()

sleep(10)
rednet.close("back")
os.reboot()
