  • New chat_sec example file has a bug / typo

    From Keyop Troy@1:103/705 to GitLab issue in main/sbbs on Thu Sep 10 14:38:07 2026

    The latest chat_sec-with-mrc-example.js has a bug:

    ```
    term Node 2 <Keyop> !JavaScript /sbbs/mods/chat_sec.js line 154: Error: Invalid external program specified
    ```

    The line reads as:
    ```
    bbs.exec_xtrn("MRC"); // external program
    ```
    Should read:
    ```
    bbs.exec_xtrn("MULTIRELAYCHAT"); // external program
    ```

    The mrc/readme.txt file says to use MRC in scfg so the chat_sec.js is likely just matching that, so it's you who is wrong :) Just change it to MRC on your bbs and then we can all go outside and play.
