@@ -136,27 +136,26 @@ Loadable Modules setup
----------------------
In Synchronet 3.16 builds starting on April 27, 2015, there are a few new
options in the Loadable Lodules configuration in SCFG: "Read Mail", "Scan
Msgs", and "Scan Subs". These loadable modules options can enable the use of
a message reader script for the various message reading, searching, and
scanning options provided by Synchronet. That is probably the easiest way to
install the reader, since it only requires specifying a script in the Loadable
Modules options and does not require modification of your command shell.
Setting it up that way also has the advantage that the reader will be used for
reading personal email and performing a message newscan during the login
process. If you have a recent build of Synchronet 3.16 (or newer), then your
version of Synchronet will support this. If you are using an older version of
Synchronet, skip ahead to the "Command shell setup" subsection.

To set up the reader with the Loadable Module scripts, do the following:
1. Copy DDReadPersonalMail.js, DDScanMsgs.js, and DDScanSubs.js from the
"Loadable module scripts" directory to your sbbs/mods directory
2. If you will be running the script from a directory other than
xtrn/DDMsgReader, edit DDReadPersonalMail.js, DDScanMsgs.js, DDScanSubs.js,
and change the path used to run DDMsgReader.js. In DDReadPersonalMail.js,
you can simply edit the line containing bbs.exec. In DDScanMsgs.js and
DDScanSubs.js, search for the text "SYSOPS:" (without the double-quotes).
One or two lines below that, there is a variable called msgReaderPath -
Change that so that it contains the path where you copied DDMsgReader.js.
xtrn/DDMsgReader, edit the above scripts and search for the text "SYSOPS:"

3. Run Synchronet's configuration program (scfg from the command prompt, or
from the GUI, select BBS > Configure). In there, select System, then
