• GolddED+ and Mystic playing together

    From David Gonzalez@21:3/188 to All on Monday, October 21, 2024 10:13:36

    Hello everybody!

    So I was tryinmg to find out a way to integrate GoldED+ and Mystic to get along and whenever I credted or replied to a message there was a way to *do something* to let Mystic there was mail to send out so thanks to the good people from this board and FSX_MYS and their advice I came up with this solution which hope works for you guys.

    NOTE:
    "
    F11 ExternUtil01
    F12 ExternUtil02

    Then if you press F11, you would call external utility number 1
    and so on. The ExternUtilNN keywords ONLY work in reader mode, not
    in the internal editor or any other place."

    So you *must* be on reader mode to be able to use these keys.

    My golded.cfg reads:

    <snip>
    ; On reading mode create SEMAPHORES FOR NETMAIL(F10) AND ECHOMAIL(F11)
    ; Mystic (mis -server) constantly checks for these SEMAPHORES and will poll uplinks
    ; and send mail.
    EXTERNUTIL 10 -PauseOnError "echo a > D:\BBS\mystic\semaphore\netmail.out" EXTERNUTIL 11 -PauseOnError "echo a > D:\BBS\mystic\semaphore\echomail.out"
    ; Whenever I exit ouy of GoldED and messages were written, SEMAPHORES are created
    ; and mail sent out
    SEMAPHORE NETSCAN D:\BBS\mystic\semaphore\netmail.out
    SEMAPHORE ECHOSCAN D:\BBS\mystic\semaphore\echomail.out
    </snip>

    Now to actually map the kesys to the functions

    goldkeys.cfg
    F10 ExternUtil10
    F11 ExternUtil11

    It works for me --I ahve a mental thing that I have to make it work at all cost-- and any improvements/suggestions willl be more than welcome.

    I read you can Integrate it into the ALT+S menu, but that's for another day.

    Regards

    David
