figured that out, dumb me I didn't save it as ansi so the letters got messed up and created a new line which forced a pause.

I am making progress converting obv/2 baja to modernized javascript. However, I can't figure out how to remove the hit key prompt when it displays main menu

See the converted renegade shell (renegade.js) as a example? Usually it's just because you have a clear-screen code in the display file and an unacknowledge non-blank line that's been printed. So either clear the line counter first or remove the scren-clear in the display file.

Thanks, I've been hoping for that shell to get updated - I'm using it
as a basis for my menus.

I believe they referring to the OBV/2 Clone shell not the renegade. I see it's in the pull request in github. I could be wrong that one and Wildcat still in Baja.

My menus are based off of the original BAJA "renegade" menu. I was
hoping to extend it in Javascript but was waiting for it to get
converted.
