Hello! I don't know if this'll get answered for a while, but no huge deal.ããI'm working on programming a javascript/bbs door game, and it's going great upãto one point. ããWith the console.inkey() command, no matter what the timeout, it always does aãconsole.pause() afterwards. ãconsole.getkey() works fine, but I would really prefer to have it timeout, asãI'm having a loop check some conditions every second. Is there a way to getãread of that console.pause() after the inkey?ã---ã þ Synchronet þ Vertrauen þ Home of Synchronet þ [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.netã

The modeãsetting I found turns off printing a CR/LF at the end.ããIs it always outputting a pause for you, or does it only do it at the end of aãscreenful of text, for instance?ããLooking through sbbsdefs.js, I also see these modes that can be used forãbbs.sys_status:ãvar SS_PAUSEOFF=(1<<18);/* Pause off, overriding user default*/ãAnd for use with user.settings:ãvar USER_PAUSE=(1<<4);/* Pause on every screen full*/ãAnd for putmsg and printfile:ãvar P_NOPAUSE=(1<<4);/* Disable screen pause*/ããIf it's a screenful pause you're seeing, perhaps you can temporarily set one ofãthose modes to get around the issue.ããBut I don't know for sure..ããNightfoxãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Digital Distortion BBS - digdist.bbsindex.comã

You can always clear the line counter, but I think it'sãgood idea to find out what is incrementing the line counter in the first placeã(and it's not inkey()).ããã digital manããSynchronet "Real Fact" #78:ã172 Synchronet Match Maker registrations were sold (@$69) between 1995 and 1996.ã---ã þ Synchronet þ Vertrauen þ Home of Synchronet þ [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.netã
