  • Shell Issue

    From IB Joe@ib.joe@1:342/200.1.remove-11qb-this to All on Sun Apr 11 13:33:51 2021
    From Newsgroup: alt.bbs.synchronet

    I am playing with Synchronet... changing menus ... I took the renegade src file and started to reverse engineer it. And here's where the problem started...

    All I did was changed out the commands I wanted from the ones that were already in the SRC file... All my features in the Main menu work..... BUT if I press any other key that is not configured in the menu the BBS kicks out an error ...problem with the shell... then it hangs up

    I've compared the old and the revised work and have no idea why it should care ??

    How do I fix this...

    Thanx

    Did you compile the altered .src file with Baja?

    Did you put it (the .bin) in the ../mods directory?

    Post your modified source somewhere for us to look at. Otherwise, we're just guessing what the problem. My guess is that you're missing an "end_if" or other closing keyword somewhere.

    Nope, and that will make it not hangup if you press a key that doesn't exist as a menu function... Main menu does this... Message menu doesn't

    Message menu doesn't IB Joe

    Probably should be in ../mods. Not really sure what the rest of that
    means. The obvious answer is that something is not correct in the
    editing of the .src file...
