The "default" shell is actually exec/default.bin (written in Baja, ãthe source of which is default.src).ããYou can section with the label ":e-mail" in this file.ããYou can add a "cmdkey L" command block (end with "end_cmd") or add it into the ã"cmdkey N" block if you prefer.ããTo execute a configured door (SCFG->External Programs->Online Programs), use ãã EXEC_XTRN "intcode"ããwhere "intcode" is the internal code of the program you have configured in ãSCFG. For detalis, see http://synchro.net/docs/baja.htmlããIf you prefer to work in JavaScript, you could use classic_shell.js or another ãshell written in JS, but how to modify the menu and launch an external is ãslightly different.ãã digital manããSynchronet "Real Fact" #29:ãThe COM I/O routines for Synchronet for DOS were written in ASM by Steve Deppe.ãNorco, CA WX: 63.7øF, 53.0% humidity, 9 mph ESE wind, 0.00 inches rain/24hrsã---ã þ Synchronet þ Vertrauen þ Home of Synchronet þ [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.netã

In text/menu, there's a
main.asc file. I think PabloDraw supports editing ASC files directly, so fire up PB and load main.asc and fix up the menu to include the new 'L' command.ãã---ãhttp://DuckDuckGo.com/ a better search engine that respects your privacy.ã þ Synchronet þ My Brand-New BBS (All the cool SysOps run STOCK!)ã
