Today I finally upgraded my system to the latest SBBS using Git... Things went very well, but I do have one issue I can't figure out.
I'm using your DDMsg and DDFile Area Choosers, I have them in /sbbs/mods (both the .js and the .cfg). I've edited my 'default.src' and compiled it into 'default.bin', also in /sbbs/mods. It all works except for this:
For my 'J' command key definition, I've defined it as:
exec "?DDMsgAreaChooser.js" as per the instructions. It works fine.
Also defined the '/*' key the exact same way and it works.
For my '*' key, I don't want the user to see the list of message groups first, just the areas in the current group, so I have defined that one as:
Any ideas? Anybody else seeing this? Thanks for any help you can provide.

I'm running a fairly recent build (September 28), and I haven't
seen any issues with it. Not sure..
Okay, I've done some further testing, and have found that the
prior version I was using (dated 2019-08-24 ver 1.19) works fine.
Without changing anything else, if I drop in the newest DDMsg and
DDFile (.js and .cfg), it does not work with the "false" command
line parameter added. Same default.src/.bin with both.
So it seems that something is not liking the word "false" with the
latest version that comes with Git... Thanks.
When I say "does not work", let me clarify... It works *except*
when you try to pass the command line parameter "false". I'm
doing that in a modified command shell, like this:
cmdkey *
exec "?DDMsgAreaChooser.js false"
end_cmd

You're right, I tested it just now and it doesn't seem to work.
I actually haven't used that feature of my own chooser in a
while.. I'll have to have a look and see if I can fix it.
