      TZUTC: -0600       MSGID: 56353.sync_sys@1:103/705 2b53f634       PID: Synchronet 3.20a-Linux master/46c603ce3 Aug 26 202 GCC 10.2.1       TID: SBBSecho 3.20-Linux master/bcc17e369 Sep 20 2024 00:01 GCC 12.2.0       COLS: 80       BBSID: TUCUMCAR       CHRS: CP437 2       NOTE: FSEditor.js v1.105       I am getting errors from trying to Add in the Text File Section. It seems that       only a reference in the (section).ini file is produced and text_sec.js farts       on the fact that no file is created. Once you hit A for Add, the metadata is       requested (filename and description) and then you are dumped back to the       Section listing, which is updated with the new description. I would think that       the A command would also present the editor and, upon entering text, save it       to the indicated file, but it doesn't.              All attempts to reference that text file from the esction listing (like       "information") result in a "No filename specified" error at either line 170 or       200, depending on using the A command or the list number to read the       non-existent file.              If I put a textfile (outside the BBS) in place with the proper filename from       the .ini file, everything works fine in editing and reading that file through       the BBS, so the basic mechanism is working.              Is there meant to be a file edition/creation happening after the metadata       entry in the (A)dd command? If so, I would respectfully like a fix, probably       in text_sec.js .              ---        þ Synchronet þ Tucumcari BBS        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)       SEEN-BY: 10/0 1 90/1 102/401 103/1 17 705 105/81 106/201 124/5016       SEEN-BY: 153/7715 214/22 218/0 1 215 601 700 720 840 860 870 880 930       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 114 206 317 400 426 428 470 550 700       SEEN-BY: 229/705 266/512 280/464 282/1038 291/111 301/1 320/219 322/757       SEEN-BY: 342/200 396/45 460/58 633/280 712/848 5075/35       PATH: 103/705 218/700 229/426           |
