Unexpectedly, a ZWNBSP (U+FEFF) received/echoed by the MacOS Terminal while in
the first column causes a subsequent cursor position report to indicate the 2nd
column as the current only. I suppose in some weird world a zero-width
character can can't as a column position. So if the cursor position has moved
less than 2 columns (not exactly 0 columns), then consider it a UTF-8 terminal.
Non-UTF-8 terminals normally move the cursor 3 columns when echoing a UTF-8
encoded ZWNBSP. So to summarize, when echoing a ZWNBSP:

- Non-UTF-8 terminals: moves 3 columns
- MacOS terminal: moves 1 columns
- Other UTF-8 terminals: moves 0 columns

you couldn't actually get the ones that should have unlocked.  This was
most important on the armour... later levels you could afford decent armour,
but your base defence would never be high enough.

Of course, I fix this *after* I kill the dragon in the beta testing game.

toggle OFF the QWK-logon status. This allows QWKnet accounts to perform
other non-QWK operations, like change their password.

* Lost games now logged in losers.jsonl, viewable in the game, not shared
* The new 'L' command shows all local wins and losses, most recent first
* Use the CP437 "F with a hook" character for flag indicator
* Added support for an uncertain (?) block marker
* Multiple block-selector styles available, use Ctrl-S to cycle through
* TAB key toggles the area-highlight feature
* Center the game board vertifically in the terminal
* Blink the clock red when there are 5 minutes or less of time left
* (R)eveal command changed to (D)ig, it is a mine *field* after-all! :-0
* Disable more global hot keys while in the game: Ctrl-K/O/Z
* Save/restore user preferences for difficulty level, highlight, and selector
* Support for "Chording" a time-saving move that can be used to uncover all
  covered/unflagged blocks surrounding a previously-uncovered block with the
  correct number of flagged blocks surrounding it. Via the 'C' key.
* Don't prompt for difficulty level when first running the game.

Only Hail is left on the TODO pile.

Changed the variable being checked by the require() for SlyEdit_Misc.js.  It was previously checking for CTRL_A, which is now also defined in key_defs.js, so SlyEdit_Misc.js wasn't being loaded anymore.  With this fix, SlyEdit should now run again with the latest .js updates.

The js_finalize_queue() is eventually called when garbage is collected and
js_finalize_queue() calls msgQueueDetach(), so bg-load()s did not "leak"
semaphores and this "fix" actually introduced a problem where the queue was
detached too many times, leaving the ref count 0 while there was actually
a lingering reference (in the parent), leading to a crash as reported by echto

Created sysop documentation (.txt file)

If you were a lucky "early adopter" and had rev 1.7 running on your BBS

you probably noticed the following important changes introduced in rev 1.8:
* exec/minesweeper.js was moved to xtrn/minesweeper/minesweeper.js
* text/minesweeper.hlp was moved to xtrn/minesweeper/minesweeper.hlp

* data/minesweeper.json was moved to xtrn/minesweeper/winners.jsonl



If you already had game winners and want to retain them in the list, copy
or rename the data/minesweeper.jsonl to xtrn/minesweeper/winners.jsonl.
If you don't care, the game will run fine and new winners will be added to
the new/correct filename.
