Subject: [PATCH] More TODO items: Properly save 80-column drawings... possibly
warn first? Best method (using movement codes) is as follows:
At Start of 80-column line: 1) Move down one
line (Using LF - force scroll if it will happen) 2)
Move up one line (back to original position) 3) Save
position At End of 80-column line: 1)
Restore position 2) Move down one line using CR/LF to
ensure a proper end of line On last line, do not do special
start/end unless the last line is 80 columns. Second best method (for
types without movement): At end of 80-column line, instead of
\r\n, use <space><backspace> - This method will not
work correctly for non 80-column terminals - Can
result in overly long lines... breaking things which use a
fixed-length line buffer while reading input files (ex: ddplus doors)
Support loading, editing, and ANSI-selecting console fonts
