  • How do you call two functions in an eval?

    From Amessyroom@VERT/TL-QWK to All on Thu Aug 22 03:27:26 2024

    When a key is pressed I want to call bbs.view_file("file") and bbs.exec_xtrn(INTERNAL_NAME).

    How do you do this ? It seems I can do one but not both

    'A': { eval: 'bbs.exec_xtrn("code")' },

    What about
    'A': { eval 'bbs.view_file("file")',
    eval 'bbs.exec_xtrn("CODE")' },

    It looks like you're using default.js? I think inside the single-quotes after the eval:, you should be able to put multiple statements in there (each ending with a semicolon)..

    'A': { eval: 'bbs.view_file("file"); bbs.exec_xtrn("code");' },

    I haven't tried that, but I'd think that should work.
