Fixed a possible screen refresh issue when writing the area chooser header - Now it clears the header rows on the screen before writing the header, to clear away any text that might have been there before (such as from the help screen).

Fixed a bug in the method that displays the header file for the message area chooser - It no longer sets the color code back to normal at the end of each line, so that for .asc files (Synchronet color codes) it doesn't reset any color codes that might still need to be used.

Updated so that ANSI header files for the message and area chooser are displayed in their original ANSI format without being converted to Synchronet color codes first (if the user's terminal supports ANSI).  If the user's terminal doesn't support ANSI, then the header files will be converted to Synchronet color codes first (as was done previously).

Fixed a bug when returning from the help screen for the lightbar message area chooser - It wasn't displaying the header again when returning to the area list.

Refactored some code related to loading the header files for the reader interface and area chooser list.

Bug fix: The new postOnSubBoardInsteadOfGoToNext was affecting the behavior for searching & scanning, which I don't think is desirable.  Now it only affects behavior when doing a normal read (not when doing a search or newscan, etc.).  Renamed the postOnSubBoardInsteadOfGoToNext configuration option to readingPostOnSubBoardInsteadOfGoToNext to more reflect what that setting is for.

- Added a new configuration option, postOnSubBoardInsteadOfGoToNext, that affects what happens after the user reads the last message on a sub-board: If this is set to true, then the reader will prompt the user if they want to post on the sub-board, then exit (this is the stock Synchronet behavior).  If this is set to false, then the reader will prompt the user whether to go to the next sub-board after reading the last message on a sub-board.  Also, added the postOnSubBoard text configuration parameter for the theme filename, which specifies the text to use for prompting the user if they want to post on the sub-board after reading the last message.
- Added new configuration options areaChooserHdrFilenameBase and areaChooserHdrMaxLines.  These options specify the filename base for a header file to use for the message area chooser list and the maximum number of lines to use from the area chooser header file.  The filaname is without the extension - The reader will first look for an .ans version, then an .asc version.  Additionally, multiple header files can be used for different terminal widths - For example, chooserMsgHdr-80.ans for an 80-column terminal, choosrMsgHdr-140.ans for a 140-column terminal, etc.

Version 1.09: Updated to not center the message header lines horizontally.  Now, it will display the header lines starting on column 1.  This was done to fix a display issue in some terminal software.

Version 1.08 - Bug fix: When scanning message sub-boards, it wasn't always closing the sub-board when there were no new messages, resulting in further sub-boards failing to open after a while.  That has been fixed.

Removed the "beta" tag - now it's officially version 1.07.  Also updated the documentation and revision history notes.

Minor bug fix for refreshing the 'message selected' check marks in the lightbar message list when other messages have been marked for deletion

Version 1.07 beta 2 - Added a way to select multiple messages in the message list and batch-delete selected messages (only if permissions allow deleting all messages).  This is most useful for personal mail when a user gets a lot of spam messages.  In the lightbar message list, the spacebar selects individual messages and CTRL-A is used to select/de-select all messages.  In the traditional UI message list, the S key is used for message selection.  CTRL-D then does a batch delete of selected messages in the message list.  The spacebar can also be used to select a message when reading it.

This is marked as 'beta', but I have tested the new features and they appear to be working as intended.  I will likely release a non-beta soon.

Added a new configuration option, pauseAfterNewMsgScan, which specifies whether or not to pause (i.e., with a "finished" message) after doing a new message scan.

- Updated so that a sub-board new-message-scan (with the -new_msg_scan_cur_sub command-line parameter) can make use of the -subBoard command-line option to scan a specific sub-board, which may be different than the user's current sub-board.
- Bug fix: Doing a new-message-scan should now always display the correct sub-board @-code information in the header above the message.

This is currently marked as a "beta" version (version 1.06 beta).

Minor bug fix: The configFilename command-line parameter wasn't being referenced correctly, causing the script to abort if that command-line parameter was used.

Version 1.05 official release update (removed the "beta" from the version number & updated the release dat,e and updated the documentation)

Made some fixes for the header/kludge line label capitalization, etc.  Also updated to display the message attributes properly (using a text description rather than just displaying the numeric value) when displaying the message headers.  Also changed the default header label & value colors to cyan and bright blue.

Fixed the display of the "when imported zone" and "when written zone" header fields.  Also, removed a line of temporary debug code.

Updated the display of kludge lines & header lines so that the label & value will be on one line if they fit that way, to save screen space and reduce the need for scrolling.  Also, added a couple of color configuration options to DefaultTheme.cfg: hdrLineLabelColor and hdrLineValueColor, which lets the sysop specify the colors to use for the header/kludge line labels & values.  Also, updated the readme file & revision history file.  This is still a 'beta' version but is fairly stable.

Implemented a workaround with the Frame object when displaying ANSI messages to get the background to refresh/redraw better so that text doesn't get left over when scrolling the message up & down

Will now refresh an ANSI message when closing the list of kludge lines/message headers (sysop command), etc.  Also, updated to output an ANSI normal attribute on exit (for ANSI users), so that the screen's background color won't get messed up (that's in addition to outputting the Synchronet 'normal' attribute for the same reason).  Also, updated to apply all of the header field labels based on the list at the following page: http://synchro.net/docs/smb.html#Header Field Types

Improved reading of messages with ANSI content - It now can use a scrollable user interface when reading messages with ANSI content.  Also added a new option in the configuration file, readerInterfaceStyleForANSIMessages, to specify whether to use the scrollable interface or the traditional interface when reading ANSI messages.  It will use frame.js and scrollbar.js, if available on the BBS machine, for reading ANSI messages with a scrollable interface (but it still uses its own scrolling behavior for non-ANSI messages, as before).  This is still a 'beta' version, as there are some more changes I'd like to make before making an official release.

Updated to interpret @-codes when reading personal email.  This is still a beta version (1.05 beta) due to another feature I wanted to try to improve (displaying messages with ANSI codes).

- Improved displaying of messages with ANSI codes. The reader will fall back to a non-scrolling user interface for displaying messages with ANSI codes, since there doesn't seem to be an easy way for the reader to handle ANSI with the scrolling interface (i.e., with ANSI cursor movements, etc.).
- Bug fix related to interpreting colors from other BBS software (WWIV, PCBoard, Wildcat, Celerity, Renegade)
- Work in progress: More kludge lines displayed (with the 'K' key), and all message header lines are now displayed (with the 'H' key) (this is a sysop feature)

Version 1.04: Now support downloading file attachments (using the Ctrl-D key combo).  Also, allows the sysop to save a message to the BBS machine (using the Ctrl-S key combo).  Also made some user interface updates: Pausing after the user saves a message so that the user can see Synchronet's save message screen, and other minor updates.  Updated DDReadPersonalEmail.js so that it's easy to switch the reader between starting in list mode or reader mode.

Version 1.03 - Bug fix: In Linux, when replying to the last message in a sub-board during a newscan or in read mode, it would not immediately refresh the messagebase information, so it would not see the new message posted.  This has been fixed by closing the messagebase while the user is posting a reply message and re-opening the messagebase when the user is done posting the reply.

Version 1.02: Bug fix in DDScanMsgs.js: Switched to bbs.scan_msgs() instead of bbs.scan_subs() for all other scan modes besides SCAN_READ.  Updated the version number to reflect that; no change to the actual reader.  Also fixed an error in the readme that said sbbs/subs when it should say sbbs/mods.

Version 1.01 - Bug fix: The enhanced reader header file is now correctly displayed even if the lengths of its lines are inconsistent.

Removed the "beta" tag from my reader, to officially make this the version 1.00 release.  Includes a bug fix reported by Underminer involving letting the Enter key exit a scan when the scan is finished.

Digital Distortion Message Reader update: Added support for the various options passed into the 'Read Mail' loadable module script.  Updated the DDReadPersonalEmail.js script to fully support the options that Synchronet can pass to that script - It will run Digital Distortion Message Reader with the appropriate options.

Updated the thread-ID navigation keys to be only ( and ) (I had added support for , and . to also work for that).  Updated to look for the configuration & theme config files in sbbs/mods first (and then in sbbs/ctrl, then the same directory as DDMsgReader.js, as before).
