    I don't see any reason you need that library - the functions are not reused anywhere. Just move the functions you need out of that file and you can delete it and remove this line.

    I suspect rather than having this function, the shell should instead just execute filescancfg.js (as other shells do) - that'll allow *configuring* the file listing (new scan pointer, listing type, etc.). At least, that's how I suspect this menu key is supposed to work.

    See `user_settings.js` for the proper way to print the user's configured default download protocol. Or use one of the (3) @-codes for the protocol name. There are more than 3 possibilities.

    Remove the $ (donation function), X (Sysop wants function)? Replace K with filescancfg.js.

    The plan remove the $ (donation function) to X (Expert Mode) don't see any reason to keep this X (Sysop wants function) moved to obv-2 shell. Replace K with filescancfg.js. Remove the obv2_lib file.

    The following was done:

    Command K (in file menu) now uses filesscancfg.js

    Command $ (in main menu) was removed in main.msg file and replaced with X (Expert Mode Toggle)

    Command X (In file menu) is now coded in shell

    removed the unnecessary obv_2_lib
