Hello, Jim!
Wednesday July 10 2024 23:21, from Jim Howarth -> Nil Alexandrov:
NA>> Why would you need to use a script to do a simple action?
JH> Its actually quite handy when you have multiple networks with multiple
JH> passwords and addresses.
What could possibly go wrong when "have multiple networks with
multiple..."? haha
JH> It basically pulls up a menu that allows me to poll each hub
JH> individually or I can poll all uplinks etc, start an areafix/filefix
JH> email that inserts the hub address, then password into the subject,
JH> then brings you directly into the body.
I`m a die-hard text-mode GoldED user for about since 90x, and we
have macros, not a script with templates. Here`s an example.
```AddressMacro af5020-1042, AreaFix, 2:5020/1042, "******", K/S, Dir```
Templates will help me to choose the right AKA and the stuff. All
I need to do is to write a netmail to user af5020-1042, for examplem
and the rest will be filled automagically. And yes, I know AreaFix
syntax so far.
JH> It also Merges a nodelists just because it was handy while I was
JH> setting up some other things.
What do you merge nodelist with?
How do you receive new nodelists? Fileechoes? Wget? Manual?
JH> Ultimately, even tho the menu had a command to switch to the netmail
JH> area, it couldn`t due to a lack of access due to a change I made in
JH> error. So it just defaulted to the area I was in.
Have you troubleshoot the issue with your script yet?
JH> Hah.. I`ll stick with my script. Bugs happen.. this one just
JH> happened to be public lol.
What`s your scripting language of choice here?
NA>> P.S. What is that BASH echotag about?
JH> Its the Bash Shell Echo on Fidonet.
Cygwin bash? hahaha
Best Regards, Nil
