Actually, i'm working on something similar -- I'd like to do a compare againts 
@GRP and @SN but i havent seen any global vars or command line specifiers 
that report back this info -- is there anyway to get it in for a compare?

basically I'm looking to have my main menu prompt either display the short or 
the long description of the current msg board based on the group its in.

should be relatively easy to accomplish this, one i figure out how to get that 
info into my code ;)
