    instead of calling it programming language/synchronet
    lets try progrmaming language/sync3 or pl/s3

    someone quoted a message talking about a new programming standard for baja the uses a different compiler to allow speial manouvers that can be compiled into standard baja commands...

    its a few messages back (and is LONG)

    Oh I see...

    Yes, I wrote it about 2½ years ago. It was a theoretical discussion. AFAIK there is no ongoing effort to develop a BAJA++ language.

    well it sounded good...
    so, what kind of support will the new version allow for external modules?
    also, I have this curiosity, that a plugin can be made with a inetnet ready app that the bbs can connect to and exchange data???
    i mean, after all its just text right?

    Well if the system is 100% scriptable, there is no part of the system that a dedicated SysOp couldn't change to suit his tastes. Also, external modules would consist of any programs that interacted predictably with the rest of the system. IOW, you could write a module to do anything in any language you liked.

    also, I have this curiosity, that a plugin can be made with a inetnet ready that the bbs can connect to and exchange data???

    What is an "inetnet" ? I tried replacing the word with "internet" and the sentence didn't make much sense then either. Please explain a little better what you have in mind!

    i mean, after all its just text right?

    Some operating systems (Unix, for example) do not distinguish between 'text' and 'non-text'. Everything is just DATA!

    my definition of internet ready is a program that communicates via tcp/ip
    where a external mod can communicate with the bbs via its own port, or a
    port that listens for externals... To me that sounds simple, but thats why
    I'm asking...

    when I say text, I really am refering to anything I can stick into a string cariable or an array of type char.
