yeah you can do that doing what digitalman said, but i suggest you just  make a
new directory and copy the rg files in there. 
 
something like sbbs/text/paulie420


then copy sbbs/exec/renegade.src to sbbs/mods/pshell.src

i have a program that can do a mass change in your .src files 

xchange /i "renegade" "paulie420" *.src

so that way you have your own directory for your command shell and you have
your own shell in sbbs/mods

in scfg make your shell the default and delete the other shells in scfg
i think that's the way you do it.
been like 20 years.
