Hey guys,

I'm trying to write a door menu MPL and notice that I can run some menu commands, like DD, to launch a door. However, I want to offer some options of outbound telnet and RLogin for users but notice that I can't use IR or IT. Is this expected?

g00r00, if this isn't implemented right now, how tough would it be?

Thanks!

You want to use the IR/IT commands within your DOOR? If so, you can't. IR/IT are ment to me used within MPL scripts. Did i understand right?

No, I want to use the menu commands from within an MPL script. :)

Right now I can use other traditional menu commands, to include DD to launch doors. But IR/IT don't seem to do anything.

Are you using correct syntax?

Yeah. There's nothing in my logs to suggest it even tried making any sort of telnet or rlogin connection.

Furthermore I can use the IR/IT commands in a menu and they work fine, but putting them into an MPL results in nothing. I suspect this just hasn't been implemented?

Are you able to write a quick MPL to telnet or rlogin to something and share
a snippet?

What I have is pretty complicated - I'm reading in a config file and running the command specified within, perhaps the `/` marks are getting caught up or something.

I am sure you don't use it correct :) here is a simple snippet, put it in a plain text file, save it as .mps and compile it with mplc.

begin
menucmd('IT','/addr=andr01d.zapto.org /port=9999');
end;

if my bbs is open you will connect to it. I tested the script and works 100%.
I am sure you will figure it now.

Ok, I'll give it a shot in a moment. I don't know why my script isn't
working, if that's the case...it can run very complex commands to launch doorgames in dosemu, for example. So it's puzzling.
