  • Using GoldED+ on the same machine as Synchronet

    From Michael Mrak@2:310/31.4 to All on Sunday, May 09, 2021 10:12:44
    Hello everybody!

    I have seen 1-2 old posts that it is possible to use GoldeED+ on systems with synchronet. Unfortunately I can't find any (even rudimentary) description of what needs to be done for this.

    Do you have any tips how I can use GoldED+ as mail client for my Synchronet BBS? I use the latest version of Synchronet and also the latest version of Golded.

    I have done that in the past, just for a look. Golded does not support <CTRL>A codes so they can look a little strange. I also just prefer the BBS message reader to golded so that is why I don't use it.

    Do you have any tips how I can use GoldED+ as mail client for my Synchronet BBS? I use the latest version of Synchronet and also the latest version of Golded.

    You'll need something like this in your golded.cfg..

    AREAFILE Synchronet /sbbs/ctrl/msgs.cnf

    Depending on your setup that might be enough, if it is then you are good to go. If golded is confused about your areas you may need to export the area config from golded to a file, fix it up and then comment out the areafile keyword above and include your fixed up areas.

    A bit of stuff there, sorry I don't know a better way.

    Also, Synchronet will always add a tear and origin line, so tell golded not to include them.

    ;CTRLINFOECHO TEARLINE, ORIGIN
    CTRLINFOECHO

    Ttyl :-),

    ... Is fire supposed to shoot out of it like that!?

    If set up correctly, there’s no reason for GoldEd+ to work properly on Synchronet.

    So, if GoldEd+ is set up correctly, it will not work on Synchronet? :-P

    You can use binkd + crashmail + golded as point for your sbbs node

    You must config binkd to poll sbbs to binkit.js (localhost) config
    crashmail (or hpt) to toss/scan and then golded to read messages.
