Function block command for another menu is:
A 001 5 FBNAME

No difference between .mnu or .ans files.. use either. MNU has priority over
ANS and ASC.

"3" in a fb shells to a door without shrinking the bbs out of memory. "4" in a
fb shells to a door after shrinking the bbs out of memory.. so for door games
use "4".
