    OK. let's talk Baja:���Excerpt from Default.scr.�~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~��cmdkey /U� userlist_all� end_cmd��cmdkey X� xtrn_section� end_cmd��cmdkey Z� print "\r\nContinuous New Message Scan\r\n"� msg_cont_scan� end_cmd��cmdkey /Z� msg_cont_scan_all� end_cmd���Where would I find the source code for userlist_all or xtrn_section or�msg_cont_scan etc?��How much (if at all) can those sections be altered? Im not a 'C'�programmer but more like a middlen batch programmer. I can follow the�logic (mostly) of a src file but writing it isn't likely. I can cut and�paste from manuals and your messages but I lack the fundamental�understanding to write code, yet.��Any discussion on this topic? Have many of you altered your default.src�to any extant?�---� � OLXWin 1.00b � Bad command or file name!

I started with Rob original�default.src and with cut and paste from a few others, and repeated tweaks it�has ended up where it is. I do belive I sent you a copy of the src did I not?� ��mm�Kn�k�r���---� � Synchronet � telnet://talamasca-bbs.com http://www.talamasca-bbs.com�

All of�these ID I believe are in the .INC files (SBBSDEFS.INC includes all the INC�files except the FILE_IO.INC) which are located in your ..\CTRL dir. I've�never tried changeing these, but that's where I'd look first.�Beta��---� � Synchronet � telnet://talamasca-bbs.com http://www.talamasca-bbs.com�

However it isn't commented on as you know what�your doing. On the other hand... I need comments to find the logic. Like�I said I am not a programmer but baja src files are rather easy to�follow.��I have another default.src file that starts a donators menu from the�main screen using a period as the hot key.��The little bit of back and forth over the bulletin program showed me�better than the docs could how exec_xtrn works. Sometimes examples plus�the authors explanation will clear the fog.��I hope my questions are not _so_ elementary that you find them unworthy.��And thanks for all you and the others have done so far.
