Alrighty, I changed the logon.js? (login, logon, I get the names confused) to 
have it run bullseye.js using load("bullseye.js") instead of the regular way 
bullseye.bin was set up to run.  However, when I hit enter to continue from 
bullseye, I am get bullseye again and I can't escape!

Therefore, there is probably a way to execute a js from the original file and 
return to the original file when that script is done that I haven't figured out.

Right now I split the logon/login one in two so it loads log?n, loads bullseye, 
loads the other half, which is probably not the best way to go.

If I switch back to loading bullseye as a logon event (set up through scfg)
should the command line be ?bullseye.js or ?

Also how/when do you know to use a ? or * in something like 
bbs.exec("?xtrn.js"); and why isn't it used in load("xtrn.js");?

Many thanks,
