    Set the node action to "XTRN" before running an auto-xtrn-upon-rlogin.prextrn.js keys off of the current node action to detect if the user iscurrently in the logon process. Defeat that check in this case (there is nologon process for auto-xtrn's).

    Optional random "Sysop is" string replacement during logonSet sysop_available and/or sysop_unavailable in the [logon] section of yourmodopts.ini to a comma-separated list of strings to pick at random and replacethe default text.dat LiSysopAvailable and LiSysopNotAvailable strings duringlogon (displayed as part of the "logon info" block near the end of thehard-coded logon sequence).Inspired by the SYSAVAIL.C modification that I used to use with my owncustom ("INHOUSE") build of Synchronet, this is now available for all sysopsto replace "Available" or "Not Available" with a random funny/smart phrase ofyour choosing (but without commas; a separate delimeter could be used if thatis a problem).

    Guest user prompts can be disabled via modopts.ini [logon] settingsguest_name = false will disable name promptguest_email = false will disable the email address promptguest_location = false will disable the location promptguest_referral = false will disable the "where'd you hear about this BBS" promptNote, at minimum, I do recommend prompting for the guest's email address so that if they send the sysop feedback (e.g. ask a question), they at least have some hope of receiving a reply.

    Log Message:
    Allow text of all guest information prompts to be overridden in modopts.iniBy setting guest_name, guest_email, guest_location, or guest_referral to anytruthy value, a prompt will be display. By setting it to a string (instead oftrue), that string will be displayed. I'm not sure how I feel about this kindof tri-state setting (true/false/string), but it does reduce the number ofsettings/options. The alternative is to have a separate boolean and stringsetting for each prompt (which I first considered).So, as of now:guest_name = false <- no prompt for Guest's nameguest_name = "" <- no prompt for Guest's nameguest_name = true (the default) <- default prompt text for Guest's nameguest_name = "Enter your name, dude" <- replaces prompt text for Guest's nameFor enter trailing white-space and ctrl-a codes, use string literals, e.g.guest_name: "\x01hEnter your name, dude: "

    guest_name = "" <- no prompt for Guest's name

    Actually, that's a bad/false example:

    guest_name: "" <- no prompt for Guest's name (gotta use string literal syntax) --
