    Modified Files:
    src/sbbs3/scfg/scfgxtrn.c
    Log Message:
    Clarify in the help text: if you include a file extension (e.g. .exe)...

    Then you must also include the file extension on all the configured command-lines.

    The opposite is not true: excluding the file extension in the native program list will still work if the command-line includes the file extension.

    Log Message:
    Change online program and program section via left/right arrow keys

    Similar to how we can now cycle through the file areas and message areas using left and right arrow keys, do the same for external "online" program sections and program (door) configurations.

    Paste the table of supported drop files (write and/or read) into F1 help

    Also, when hitting ESC at the "Use Real Names" prompt, don't prompt for the Lower-casing of the drop file name.

    Modified Files:
    src/sbbs3/scfg/scfgxtrn.c
    Log Message:
    Don't zero-out static variables for option index/bar

    This prevents re-entry to the door configurations from returning to the previously highlighted menu option. Not sure why this was, but clearly re-zeroing static variables makes no sense in the first place.

    Give the timed event config menu the left/right arrow key treatment

    Allows quick traversing through timed events (e.g. for comparison of settings).

    Use "Message Editors" instead of the (vague) "External Editors"

    It was redudnant having "External Editors" under "External Programs" (they're all external, yeah?) and of course, "Editors of what?"

    So yeah, existing docs are now all wrong. :-)

    In addition to editing messages, I thought those editors would also be used for other things, such as when the user edits their signature? I thought "external editors" made sense.

    Yeah, I considered "Text Editors", but they're mainly known as "Message Editors" in the BBS world. "External" is implied.
