Hello all,

So anyone had experience with the json-chat module?

I've tried loading this with no luck, it just exits right back out out with no
errorlevel, etc.. I'm not passing any argumetns to it, and loading it in
externals under scfg using ?../exec/load/json-chat.js. I'm sure I'm missing a
good bit.. because I believe the modules under ../../load and mods need to be
called by another js, etc.. I dunno.. and what is HOTLINE, I've never seen any
of this really be used. yet it is setup.

I do not have the json-chat SERVER running on my machine, I set it up to use
the brokenbuble server so it could be InterBBS chat instead of local. I really
just wanted a quicker means of InterBBS chat over InterBBS instant message.
telegram features, etc.. which I believe will go away pretty soon anyway. I
guess I'll just get IRC set back up and going instead, until I can figure out
the json-chat. I think I missed a big chunk of information when a lot of the
new JS was being devoloped when I was on Hiatus, or it would not have been a
problem with me.

Now all these extra JS modules, etc just set here and I want to make use of
them but cannot find much docs on them if anyy. I think Ihave done good on some
of them though, considering my level of intelligence when it comes to JS, as I
have gotten some of the broken scripts and modules under the XTRN directory
working when they were broken and giving compile/runtime errors.

I think My system, being a mix of an older sbbs system, along with a lot of the
newer stuff on CVS is what is mixing me up.. right now my system is a patchwork
of a lot of different things, shell scripts, JS scripts, even BATCH scripts
that run under DOSEMU to do what I need to accomplish, but I want to
consolidate and future proof everything.

TIA
