 Ps>> I believe what you're looking for is bbs.atcode():

 Ps>> text = text.replace(/@([^@]+)@/g, function(m, code) {
 Ps>> return bbs.atcode(code);
 Ps>> });

 Ni> I saw bbs.atcode() in the docs..  I was hoping for something that handles

Hmm, yeah. I don't think there's anything else. This text.replace itself goes
through each beginning and ending @ code block and translates each one, at
least as far as I can tell it does. the variable, text, becomes the full
at-code translated result. 

Either way, you're welcome, and hope it helps. :)
