    Hello Rob!ããI'm trying to add a 'Clean-Up Command' to a door that will run a batch fileãto update some ANS screens. In the wiki it says that option can only run a ã.js or .bin file. I'm great creating batch files but don't have a clue on ãhow to write a .src file that I can use baja on.ããThere are a total of 6 different doors that have to run a batch fileãspecifically written for each game therefore I amãassuming I'd need 6 different .src files pointing towards each gamesãdirectory where the unique batch files areãsitting.ããNow how do I go about whipping something up? Do I need to use any !includeãstatements? Do I use an 'EXEC_XTRN <.bat>'ãcommand within the src file? As you can probably tell, I'm a tad over myãhead here.ããThanks for any help you can give me.ãThanks for any help you can give me.ã--ããBillããTelnet: tequilamockingbirdonline.netãWeb: bbs.tequilamockingbirdonline.netãFTP: ftp.tequilamockingbirdonline.net:2121ãIRC: irc.tequilamockingbirdonline.net Ports: 6661-6670 SSL: 6697ãRadio: radio.tequilamockingbirdonline.net:8010/liveãã---ã þ Synchronet þ TequilaMockingbird Online - Toms River, NJã

Then all you have to worry about isãexecuting the bat file. ããYou don't say if you're on Windows or linux but on Windows it shouldãbe trivial, on linux it might even be easier to write a shell scriptãthat calls dosemu and then runs your cleanup, if that's what isãrequired.ãã---ã þ Synchronet þ End Of The Line BBS - endofthelinebbs.comã

As you can probably tell, I'm a tad over myããyou can actually use exec_int but dont do that ããsometimes i do cleanup commands in the actual doorgames' batchfile beforeãeverything runs because there are false inuse.flg files or whatever.ã---ã þ Synchronet þ ::: BBSES.info - free BBS services :::ã

It seems it prefers the entire path. :)ãã Ne> You don't say if you're on Windows or linux but on Windows it shouldã Ne> be trivial, on linux it might even be easier to write a shell scriptã Ne> that calls dosemu and then runs your cleanup, if that's what isã Ne> required.ããIt's fixed.. thank you..ããã--ããBillããTelnet: tequilamockingbirdonline.netãWeb: bbs.tequilamockingbirdonline.netãFTP: ftp.tequilamockingbirdonline.net:2121ãIRC: irc.tequilamockingbirdonline.net Ports: 6661-6670 SSL: +6697ãRadio: radio.tequilamockingbirdonline.net:8010/liveããã...
