• imho i made a pretty cool first shell, working now, check it out!

    From Garth Grudge@VERT/GRUDGEDU to All on Sat Feb 8 16:08:01 2014
    well after about a month and half of javascript immersion and tinkering i madeãa shell. my intent in designing the shell was to create a shell that kind ofãputs it all out there at once and let's you kinda graze information whileãyou're still in the shell. ããit uses frames.js to host the following features:ããan RSS ticker, (using rss-atom)ã-chat system with conditional formatting (using json-chat)ã- message viewer that is reverse threaded and uses conditional formatting andãallows for cycling through all menu bases with arrow keysãããother features that aren't that crazy are the menu system (basically i took theãclassic shell and put it in a frame with a few mods here and there). it alsoãdisplays some random ansi's and files from a banner folder in the bottom left.ããanyhow, you can test it out telnet to grudgedu.synchro.net ... there is a knownãissue with regards to idling and socket disconnects that will be handled soon. ãother than that, hopefully the shell works. OH ONE MORE THING, the shell isãnot set up for the global hot keys, so if for some reason one gets entered, youãwill likely need the screen to redraw. Press Control-S to do that. ããYou can hit ? at any prompt to see a help file which hopefully makes more senseãin context. ããAnyhow, that's grudgedu.synchro.net ... it's the result of at least a month ofãfurious work learning javascript and the ins and outs of synchronet, and maybeãit will inspire some people in some way, as it's cool to see people developingãfor synchronet, and I couldn't have done it without the help of the peopleãalready doing so. I wouldn't say it's easy, or I'm done, but definitely worthãthe effort as javascript is hardly isolated to the BBS world.ããblah blah blahããlet me know if you see any bugs if you want... i can't promise i can fix them. ãi got more ideas to work in, so i'm good on that. it's more a matter of myãaptitude at this point. ããalso, you need ANSI an 80x24 resolution at least. yee haw!ãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Coming at you from North Korea Netã

I actually don't think that is something wrong with myãshell, because it starts happening during the new user routine before the userãeven has a chance to select a command shell. ããI wonder if anyone knows what could be the source of this issue. It's kind ofãwacky.ããGracias ragnarok para la informacion.ãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Coming at you from North Korea Netã

I did intentionally change that, but obviously it didn't haveãthe effect I wanted. ãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Coming at you from North Korea Netã
