This won't impact Synchronet as it has a separate signal handling
thread, but we still need to behave properly for processes that
don't.  I'm also saying that ENOMEM does not indicate a disconnection,
though it may be better to pretend it was disconnected...

Hopefully not introducing any bugs in the process.

Don't set to 0xff to begin with, in SCFG.

Let UIFC do the truncation as necessary to fit windows/forms, when applicable.
Thanks for jc and nelgin for pointing this out via IRC.

I'm fed-up with MSVC assertions in ctype functions (e.g. isdigit, isprint, isspace, etc.) when called with out-of-range (e.g. negative) values.

This problem only affects MSVC debug builds, but if you run them (like I do), these things are like little time bombs that can drive you crazy (knocking your board out of service).

The new macros names are bit more descriptive as well.

New option to control whether the "KILLSENT" attribute is set on locally created Internet email messages. Defaults to "No".
At the request of Mark Lewis.

- auto-increment the next sub position
- save and auto-increment the last conference number

This reduces the task of adding of subs to a QWKnet hub to just a bunch of
jamming on the ENTER key (usually).

command-line (uisng -misc=<value> in addition to -import=<filename>). The
value can be decimal or 0x-prefixed hexadecimal, but you need to know the
property bit-flag value (SUB_* in sbbsdefs.h). For use with init-fidonet.js

message areas. If not specified, the address from the template sub will be used
(if there is one), else the first specified system FTN AKA is used (as before).
Removed a bunch of superfluous carriage-returns.
Use the Copyright notice defined in sbbsdefs.h.

filtering on packet address (e.g. to limit importing to a specific msg network)
- for Ragnarok

will convert to CP437 characters for compatibility with legacy QWK BBSes).
For Vertrauen/DOVE-Net, this should be set to "Yes".

network hub call-outs and timed-events.

Wrap all read_*_cfg() and write_*_cfg() calls with simple functions that
display popup messages that the Reading or Writing is being performed.
There was already copy/pasta everywhere for the Reading ... cnf files, but
nothing for writing.

the sysop must now enable this feature in SCFG->Networks->FidoNet.
Also, widen the FidoNet configuration menu in SCFG, display more FTN
addresses and the default origin line (part of it, at least) in the menu.

networking technology for 20 years. :-(

to add CUT/COPY/PASTE support, but also some beautification and sensible
updates.

option.

  Automatically detect child sub-directories and make them available as virtual
  directories for users to download from - only useful via FTP currently.
* Implemented Sorting options for Message Groups and File Libraries:
  Sub-boards within groups and directories within library can now be
  automatically sorted based on the sysop's chosen sort field (long name, short
  name, or internal code)
  - Required that sub-boards are now stored/saved in msgs.cnf based on groups
  - Required QWKnet hub sub-board reference dynamic renumbering
* Implemented "Template" toggle option for sub-boards and file directories:
  A sub-board or directory marked as "template" will be used for newly created
  (or imported) subs/dirs for that group/lib. Clone Options via SCFG will now
  use the "template" item as the source of the cloned settings, if available.
* New "Impport Conferences..." option for QWKnet hubs to import subs (or just
  conference numbers) from a QWK control.dat file.
* New command-line options:
  -import=<filename> - import a message Area List file
  -g<name> - specify a target message group for imported area list
* All paste operations are now "Paste-Insert" (not over-write), as sysops would
  expect.
* Unified several of the duplicate (or nearly duplicate) help text strings.
* Over-hauled new group/sub/library/directory creation logic
* Display number of sub-boards in groups and directories in libraries
* Fixed a lot of help text typos and conversion issues

and when pasted, all the child subs/dirs/xtrns will be pasted with it.
If however, you cut a group/lib/section and then exit SCFG, you'll lose all the
children subs/dir/xtrns that were on the "clipboard" along with the parent.

Copy - F5, Ctrl-C, Ctrl-Insert
Cut - Shift-Del, Ctrl-X
Paste Over - F6, Ctrl-V
Paste Insert - Shift-Insert

- Include Kludge Lines     (Yes)
- Include VOTING.DAT File   (Yes)
- Include HEADERS.DAT File   (Yes)
- Extended (QWKE) Packets    (No)
- Exported Ctrl-A Codes    (Strip)

SBBS/QWKnet nodes now have more control over the REP packet files created
by their systems. If the "uplink" (hub) is complaining about receiving
unsupported files (e.g. VOTING.DAT) or kluge lines (e.g. @TZ), just turn them
off.

Also, Ctrl-A codes may now be retained in QWKnetmail. And the @REPLYTO kludge
line enabled for the first time (!).

longer used by SBBSecho (as of v3) and will just confuse sysops if left here.
If you're still using SBBSecho v2, just set the inbound directory in echocfg
(sbbsecho.cfg file) instead and all will be fine.

hasn't been used in a very, very long time (a hold-over from the SBBSFIDO days)
and only serves to confuse sysops.

Updated code style.

Resoled valid bcc32 warnings (in scfgnet.c).
