• maybe a scfg bug

    From Lord Time@1:103/705 to Digital Man on Sat Jan 13 20:44:18 2018
    at the (linux version) scfg - external programs - online programs (doors) - main - Available Online Programs... - Synchronet Configuration (ansi & stdio)

    on the linux version of sbbs, I logon to a sbbs (not mine, but someones else that I have sysop access) went to the door area to enter the Synchronet Configuration
    doors, couldn't so I went looking, had to ssh into that bbs and look, I look at my windows one and then the linux one :

    windows : Command Line %!scfg -id -l%r
    linux : Command Line %!scfg%. -id -l%r

    I took the %. out and reran the linux bbs and logon the the linux sbbs again and
    see if I could enter the scfg for the door area and I did, not sure when the %. was added (when you build it in), just thought you might look into it

    The "%." explands to ".exe" on Windows, nothing on *nix.

    This allows you to have both "scfg" and "scfg.exe" in the same directory and be able to automatically execute the correct one.

    Removing (or adding) "%." to a command-line in the *nix (e.g. Linux) build of sbbs will have no impact on the executed command-line.
