But DM's msglist is easy enough to run that you could easily add it to multiple command shells if you wanted..ããNightfoxãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Digital Distortion: digitaldistortionbbs.comã

Or is that only onã > certain menu options?ããThe loadable modules configured in SCFG->System->Loadable Modules are only invoked automatically from native functions in the C/C++ and only where it makes sense. The bbs.list_msgs() messages does not invoke the "List Msgs" loadable module because it can't support all the uses cases (e.g. optional argument values) supported by bbs.list_msgs(). I considered/tried to make that happen, but it wasn't feasiable, at least not initially.ããThe 'L' command key in the default shell is a new addition, so having it invoke msglist.js directly was no problem.ãã digital manããSynchronet "Real Fact" #85:ãThe ZMODEM file transfer protocol is limited to files of 4 gigabytes or smaller.ãNorco, CA WX: 79.5øF, 29.0% humidity, 3 mph E wind, 0.00 inches rain/24hrsã---ã þ Synchronet þ Vertrauen þ Home of Synchronet þ [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.netã
