Hello,

I have a quick question. I would like to add a menu command in my
transfers menu. Can anyone tell me where I would add the command? Is there a
.js file or baja file I need to edit to add the command letter and execution
line?

Thanks
Mark

Yes, you'll need to edit a .js or Baja file. Which one depends on the command
shell you're using. If you're using the default command shell, then it would
probably be classic_shell.js (or perhaps default.src, which is Baja - although
I believe recent versions of Synchronet use classic_shell.js).

Hi,

Thanks for the help..found the file classic_shell.js and see where I need
to edit it. Now another question is what would I input to get a door to run
when the user presses a key from the main menu? Say the letter "Z" is
pressed I want to run a door program. I set the door up under "MAIN" in the
xternal areas along with my other doors. So would I need to just call the
internal name that I gave it such as "testdoor"?

Thanks

Most likely, the file you need to edit is exec/default.src. See
http://synchro.net/docs/baja.html for more details.
