All:ããI've been doing some fiddlin' with js menus and was wondering if someoneãcould give me the correct syntax to call another js.ããIe.ããI have default.js which has most of the menu options in it, but it wasãgetting rather large, so I created an additional js for external programsãand such (xtrn.js).ããI've tried a few things, but I seem to fail.ããThanks,ããMindless Automatonã---ã þ Synchronetã

(login, logon, I get the names confused) to ãhave it run bullseye.js using load("bullseye.js") instead of the regular way ãbullseye.bin was set up to run. However, when I hit enter to continue from ãbullseye, I am get bullseye again and I can't escape!ããTherefore, there is probably a way to execute a js from the original file and ãreturn to the original file when that script is done that I haven't figured out.ããRight now I split the logon/login one in two so it loads log?n, loads bullseye, ãloads the other half, which is probably not the best way to go.ããIf I switch back to loading bullseye as a logon event (set up through scfg)ãshould the command line be ?bullseye.js or ?ããAlso how/when do you know to use a ? or * in something like ãbbs.exec("?xtrn.js"); and why isn't it used in load("xtrn.js");?ããMany thanks,ãã-Mindless Automatonã---ã þ Synchronetã
