    src/sbbs3/xtrn_sec.cpp
    Log Message:
    Add support for command-line specifiers in external program 'startup dir'

    The exception is: DOS programs on Linux (e.g. Linux DOSEMU), due to the
    funky drive letter mappng, this can't be supported for those external
    programs.

    As requested by Fluid via IRC, for Frotz support, to store user-unique
    data files in data/user/####.something (e.g. "%juser/%4.zork").

    Log Message:
    Don't close logfile_fp before running JavaScript externals

    This would've prevented some JS log functions from writing to the node.log file (which gets concatented onto the daily "system" log files).

    This just came up via code review while looking into Keyop's reported error: term Node 2 !ERROR 9 (Bad file descriptor) in main.cpp line 4606 (node_thread)
    truncating "logfile" access=0

    This is likely unrelated since the "logfile" is immediately re-opened after executing the external program/script.

    to be more consistent with other "Executing ..." log messages.

    Log Message:
    Save/restore the current socket inactivity timeout value

    Rather than assuming the user is already "online" - this could be called
    during login, logon, or newuser registration which have different max socket inactivity timeout values.
