If you can make the source available then I could take a look or
possibly rewrite it in JS.

Do you have the Baja .src file? Can you try recompiling to .bin using Baja? If so, and it still doesn't seem to work right, you could add print or log statements to help debug if/how-far the script is actually running.

hello I recently upgraded my bbs to version 3.19b and my a couple she i installed are no longer working they were written in baja i believe one is the halloween shell called ween and the other one is a christma shell and they are not working, they show blank screen when selected. i have looked around and have not found any fix, can someone please point me in a direction of what to do or if i need to edit a file somewhere. thanks for all your help and if you need any more informati that i forgot to add here please let me know thanks again shawn
Do you have the Baja .src file? Can you try recompiling to .bin using Baj If so, and it still doesn't seem to work right, you could add print or lo statements to help debug if/how-far the script is actually running.
So, I extracted ween.src from hallween.zip here on Vertrauen, and it doesn't compile with current versions of Baja:
baja ween.src
BAJA v2.34-Win32 (rev 1.52) - Synchronet Shell/Module Compiler
Compiling ween.src...
!SYNTAX ERROR (expecting integer constant):
ween.src 31: main
So you can either:
1. Just use the .bin file that comes in the archive, unmodified, or
2. Update the .src file per instructions in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HlwQ0uX4S04
.. and then recompile the updated .src file (to .bin) using Baja
let me see what i have where could i send the files to
thanks again and what would you charge to rewrite it if you could
Re: good afternoon asking about baja and menu shellsMight still be good to convert to JS. I bet baja is going away sooner

Might still be good to convert to JS. I bet baja is going away sooner or later. Doesn't make sense to keep it around with modern JS shells and very little, if anything, really uses it these days.

Yeah, I converted my shell to JS years ago and haven't looked
back. There are things that I think you can do more easily in
JS, and some things I doubt you can do at all in Baja.
How does a non-JS-programmer accomplish this?

Learn JS.
Learn JS.
see, that's what chases off a lot of people that end up running mystic. there's this false idea that you need to be a programmer to run synchronet.
That's great info, and thanks Nightfox for taking the time to post that.
Saved for future reference, and greatly appreciated.
Now to answer your original question, if you're currently using default.src, I do believe there's a default.js that you can just switch to
That's true, but did my reply not answer his question?
I had mentioned that I converted my Baja shell to JS, and GamgeeEven if he did write or modify his own baja shell, the answer to "How does a non-JS-programmer accomplish this (switching from baja to js shells)" is simply to replace default.src/bin with default.js. Done deal.
asked "How does a non-JS-programmer accomplish this?" I don't know if
he's using default.src (he didn't say he was), but the way he asked
that, I answered thinking that he may have written his own custom
Baja shell.
That's true, but did my reply not answer his question?
I'm fairly certain his question was simply how to switch from a baja shell to a .js one. It seemed like he was unaware that there was a 'default.js' available to switch to. So not really.
