  • Calling DDMSGREADER

    From Amessyroom@VERT/TL-QWK to nightfox on Mon Aug 19 05:30:30 2024
    I'm trying to call ddmsgreader from menu item but it is not using the expected arguments.

    'M': { eval: 'bbs.exec("?../xtrn/DDMsgReader/DDMsgReader.js -indexedMode -indexModeScopoe=all -newscanIndexMenuAfterReadAllNew")' },

    It prompts for Group or All, and then goes to index mode. Not jumping to "NEW" groups as expected.

    What am I doing wrong in the executable call ?

    It's going to index mode because you gave it the -indexedMode argument. What is it you're wanting to achieve?

    I'm trying to call ddmsgreader from menu item but it is not using the

    'M': { eval: 'bbs.exec("?../xtrn/DDMsgReader/DDMsgReader.js -indexedMode
    -indexModeScopoe=all -newscanIndexMenuAfterReadAllNew")' },

    It's going to index mode because you gave it the -indexedMode argument. What is it you're wanting to achieve?

    It is prompting me for group or all; when I specified -indexModeScope=all

    I copied the example from the readme. Does the scope option have to come
    before the mode option?

    There is a typo in the command line snippet that you posted above, which
    would explain why it isn't working.

    In the example you pasted above, you mistyped the indexModeScope parameter - You have an extra 'o' toward the end (indexModeScopoe).

    :-) Thanks.

    I admit my human error...
