That's amazingly just what I was looking for.

So I could drop this in before main in xtrn_sec.js, replace
bbs.exec_xtrn(prog_list[i].code); with launch(prog_list[i].code);...

what's the format for scores.ini?

doorcode = filename?

Out of curiousity, would this also display files from urls? For example, pull
the score file from BBS Links
(http://games.bbslink.net/score.php?door=lord&type=ansi) or DoorParty or CoA,
etc?


.... A bird in the hand is safer than one overhead.
