So the external program section module (you have configured in
SCFG->System->Loadable Modules->Xtrn Section) is xtrn_sec.js? That means you`re wanting
xtrn_sec.js to run recursively. It *might* work, but the command line would
need to be "?xtrn_sec
" (as you had in your previous
message on this topic).
But a better solution might be to use the "External Program Menu"
module instead of xtrn_sec.js, as it claims to support `any number of
menus` (depth):
https://wiki.synchro.net/module:xtrnmenu
I think that`s what you`re looking for.
