Tip of the Day
Power user tips, this feature can be set to run automatically when Band-in-a-Box opens. If you want to add your
own tips, you can edit the BBW.TIP file. Just put a tip on a single line (no carriage return till the end of the tip).
Tips are limited to 255 characters per tip. Band-in-a-Box automatically compiles the BBW.TIP file at startup of the
program to a binary file called BBW.TPB.
