I'm using Synchronet 3.20 that was built with the latest updates as of yesterday. In my login matrix, I have an option to allow emailing the sysop before the user has logged in. I tried using bbs.select_editor(); to allow the user to select a message editor before emailing the sysop. It works in that the selected editor is used, but after the user selects the editor, it shows a message saying there was an error writing user.tab. If a user has not logged in yet, I don't think it needs to update user.tab.

Adding to this, I'm in the same boat, and Nightfox and I have been discussing it a bit via email.

This specific issue was fixed in Git already.
Then again, my question was asking if there was a way to force a specific editor possibly via internal code, rather than letting a user that isn't logged in yet make any actual choices.

What he was asking if there's a way to set the user's editor to a specific editor before the user has logged on. bbs.select_editor() prompts the user to select one, but Accession just wants to set their editor to a specific editor without prompting them to choose one.

I can add that support, I think. The preferred way to request features is via gitlab. :-)

Thanks for the added support! As for gitlab, I'm still trying to figure it out. I'm guessing you need to have an account and be logged in to see any of that stuff (I didn't see anything in regards to reporting bugs or requesting features)? The only real familiarity I have with git itself is cloning and pulling repos via linux command line.
You just need a *.synchro.net email address to register and then the bugs/features ("issues") are here: https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/issues --
