I will though just to see if I can get it to happen again.              That is strange. Nothing writes to the file.ini (normally) except scfg.               > Also I've noticed around the same time that my oneliners module has stopped        > working. when I try to run it, it says it doesnt exist. and it is sitting        > right where it's been located all the time in ../xtrn/oneliners I checked        > the xtrn.*.ini files and the last 4 or so are the same size so there has        > been no change to them.              Just cause they're the same size doesn't mean there was no change (e.g.       changing a 0 to 1 doesn't change the file size) - so comparing with a tool       such as 'diff' (or any other text file comparison tool) would be hepful.               > maybe these two issues have nothing to do with each other, I thought I might        > as well mention it though because the only changes I've made lately to my        > bbs has been keeping the build updated.              Well lets look into the onliners module issue - how do you have it configured       in SCFG?
