+Modules are typically located in the ''[[dir:exec]]'' directory and written in either [[util:Baja]] (compiled to ''.bin'' files) or [[custom:JavaScript]] (''.js'' files).
+Modules (written in [[util:Baja]] or [[custom:JavaScript]]) are used to provide services to [[:server:terminal|Terminal Server]] users via [[:custom:command shell|command shells]], editors, games, add-ons, etc. as well as timed and network call-out events for the sysop.
+Modules (written in [[custom:JavaScript]]) may also be used as mail processors with the [[:server:mail|Mail Server]], dynamic HTML index file generation with the [[:server:ftp|FTP Server]], external content handlers for the [[:server:web|Web Server]], CGI and other uses with [[:util:JSexec]].
+Source code for modules included with Synchronet is available in [[dev:CVS]].
