> I am trying to make custom menus for my various external programs/games/doors
> sections and in reviewing "External Programs Menu" on the wiki page I created
> an ANSI .msg file and .ans file.  I created and saved these files in
> c:\sbbs\text\menu  and with the file name of "xtrnmenu_games.msg" &
> "xtrnmenu_games.ans" for my GAMES external program section.  Yet Synchronet
> still shows the default menu.  

> * I made the .ans version in the event the .MSG does not disply ANSI.

> Do I need to edit my global settings by adding the STRNMENU section to the
> modopts.ini for these custom menu files to work?
> If I do this mod will it carry over to future updated versions on Synchronet
> or do I have to edit this modopts.ini file each time Synchronet is updated?

> Thanks!

When you update Synchronet BBS, it comes with default options and will be
overwritten.
