Didn't even realize you were working on JavaScript for Synchronet. :) Good things come I suppose. :)
Is the alpha stable enough to put up, or should we wait for an official 3.10

Thanks for the input. I'll test out 3.10 sometime in the next few days.
An annoyance that I've noticed is that when you go into the USER_DEFAULTS mo a "N" character keeps popping up. It isn't a big issue when hotkeys are off but when they are on, the N keeps toggling the "New Scan" option and kinda makes the hotkeys unusable. :)
Otherwise, this is an incredible BBS program. I'm very happy to have it available to the community. Are you accepting any sorts of donations for th continued development of it?

This isn't normal. What telnet client are you using? It sounds like it's not handling the ANSI screen-length detection properly. You can either set the

I'm using HyperTerminal that came with Windows 2000. And I get the "N" bug your BBS also. :) (vert)

I haven't noticed the N character pop up bug, but I am using mTel. I h noticed that when logging on as a new user on my own BBS and using mTel to telnet to it from the BBS computer (same computer), when the new user log on gets to the defaults section the defaults section shows up, then the screen redraws all black and I am left with only a blinking cursor where the defaul prompt is. If I hit 'Q' it continues... Weird... I think it must be the Alpha version of mTel I am using... I am going to switch to an older versio and see if it does it still... Got me thinking... It doesn't do it from an other computer on my LAN, only the BBS system.

Do you mean the Win2k standard telnet client? Or are you dialing in wi a modem?

I was right... The Alpha version of mTel is the reason I was having th problem. It doesn't seem to do it with the beta 6 release. (The Alpha Version says beta 8 at the top). I'm probably the only one that had this problem, but now you know what to expect if you download beta 8 or alpha and this happens to you.

I don't know. Maybe everyone is waiting for JavaScript?

Use a different editor perhaps? Other people have reported problems with quoting in SyncEdit and I don't remember what the solution (if any) was.
under Windows 2000 Syncedit will bomb with a runtime error when you attempt quote a message. i'm not quite sure why it does this, but it does.

Windows 2000 comes with HyperTerminal. HyperTerminal can be used instead of Microsoft Telnet.
Microsoft Telnet has all sorts of problems connecting to Synchronet. (Pause every 6-7 lines)

Absolutely!
The only external editor I'd be interested in would be 'vi' but DM won't
Have you figured out how to insert characters within a line of text without erasing what has already been writtin? That's the only thing that b me about the internal editor... Oh, BTW, I'm using it right now. :)
You guys are nuts :)
I used the line editor for months actually.. but it's nice being able to back up several lines without repeatedly using the "/d" command and retying everything.. heehh..

ROB you see that " [8;1H " after win98SE, it happens when i hit return sometimes...
Sneekee trick I use under KDE: I move to the insertion point, highlight everything on that line to the RIGHT of the insertion point, press Ctrl-Y to delete to end-of-line, type my extra word, and then Ctrl-Insert to paste bac It's cheating, since I'm not technically inserting at all, but I like to leverage the power of the KDE console cut-n-paste feature.
