External Programs Section
The xtrn_sec.js module provides the “External Programs” (doors) menu for the Terminal server users.
Install
This module (xtrn_sec) should be the default value of SCFG->System->Loadable Modules->Xtrn Section.
Usage
The normally expected usage is just to invoke xtrn_sec.js with no arguments. If, however, you wish to have the module skip the menu of external program sections and go directly to the menu of available programs within one specific section, pass the internal-code of the desired program section section as and argument to xtrn_sec.js.
Example (Baja):
exec_bin xtrn_sec games
Example (JavaScript):
load('xtrn_sec.js', 'games');
Configure
The xtrn_sec module supports the following configuration options in the [xtrn_sec] section of the ctrl/modopts.ini file:
| Option | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| multicolumn | true | Use a multiple-column program list when there are more than 10 items |
| sort | false | Re-sort (alphabetically) the list of programs and program sections before displaying to the user |
| autoexec | false | Automatically execute a section's program when there is only one program available within that section |
| clear_screen_on_exec | false | Clear the screen before executing any/all programs |
| eval_before_exec | Evaluate the specified JavaScript expression before executing any/all programs | |
| eval_after_exec | Evaluate the specified JavaScript expression after executing any/all programs |
Fonts
This module uses the fonts.js library and fonts.ini file to optionally load door-specific fonts before executing an external program and restore the default font upon returning from the external program.
