Hello again team,

I used to have SyncChat working as a chat replacement. From the main menu [C]hat > [J]ump to chat > then SyncChat would start.

Still trying to dust off the cobwebs so I can't remember how I got this working. I think it was an edit to sbbs\exec\chat_sec.js perhaps? and then
run a spicific baja command to compile?

I'm on sbbs 3.16c now and will upgrade to the latest soon, but want to get things working before I move forward.

Thanks all,

xbit

... 1024x768x256... Sounds like one MEAN woman!

The .js files don't need explicit compilation (and they don't use baja).

I'm on sbbs 3.16c now and will upgrade to the latest soon, but want to get things working before I move forward.

I don't recall, but maybe we had a chat_sec.src/bin file back then? In any case, from chat_sec.js, you would likely use bbs.exec_xtrn("syncchat") (or something similar) to execute SyncChat from within a key-handling "case" statement.
