• A47 Weirdness...

    From Bucko@21:4/131 to All on Sat Oct 16 21:09:38 2021
    Posted this on the Mystic Fido Echo.. Thought I would hit everyone up on here too...

    Finally got a chance to upgrade to A47, followed the upgrade docs step by
    step,
    fix the python error I got because of the directory being shown. Now when I enter into the File Base or Message base, I have a command which displays a file for the SysOp menus. It is DF sysopmsg it worked fine in A46 now it just shows ysopmsg on the screen and does not show the menu. I am sure it is something I missed in the upgrade but any ideas?? Other then that the BBS seems to be running fine..

    Thanks for any help...

    Hi Al.

    Yep I'd replied over there and saw your reply, so replying here now... my head hurts ha!

    Just on the prompt editor line

    Try

    |DFfilename|

    so add another pipe after the file name
