Both the and the output are not prettier.

This fixes issue #901

In some uses (depending on the list order), typing a message number didn't
take you to the intended message.

Reported by Nelgin in IRC.

e.g. '-hSEVERNAME'

This allows server-unique hashing so that if one BBS auto-registers
/authenticates its users with *multiple* Rlogin servers, the credentials
stored on of the rlogin servers may not be used to authenticate on the others.

Like the -p option, except the server won't get a copy of the client BBS
user's password or be able to decode it.

The user's password, user number and account creation date are used to generate
the password hash (along with the salt), so changing any of these will change
the resulting hashed password sent (and presumably logged/stored) on the
server. The resulting SHA-1 hash is sent as 40 hexadecimal digits.

The default salt is the system's QWK-ID, but the sysop can specify their own
salt (e.g. random number or secret passphrase) via the "salt" key in the
[rlogin] section of modopts.ini or root section of ctrl/modopts/rlogin.ini

Bug introduced in commit 49053f31

the 'mode' value was by default, undefined.
the 'timeout' value is by default, 10.

When mode value/flags was not provided on the command-line, undefined
was passed to bbs.rlogin_gate() as the 5th parameter, but the number 10
is passed as the 6th parameter (for time-out). The problem is, the first
Number parameter passed to bbs.rlogin_gate() is interpretted as the mode
value and so that becomes 10 (0x0A) which includes TG_NODESYNC thus enabling
all node messages/activity being displayed to the rlogin user and interrupting
their rlogin session (e.g. game play).

Just make the 0 the default value for mode, like we did in telgate.js.

Document it and set it by default.

rlogin_xtrn_logon set to false to skip the normal logon screens for Rlogin.
rlogin_xtrn_logoff set to false (default) to immediately hangup, true to
prompt the user if they truly wish to logoff, and "full" to prompt and if
affirmed, go through the full logoff procedure (dislpay files and events,
etc.).

This broke showmsgavatar.js

Examples:
"-D02/29/25"
"-T02 Feb 1996 03:04:05 GMT"
"-TDecember 17, 1995 03:24:00"
"-T1995-12-17T03:24:00"

The system's configured time zone is always used however.

Translate the blink attribute to the bright BG attribute.
This won't work for XBin however since XBin expects that setting
the blink attribute will not change the background colour... and
since it tends to use blink for everything, this means XBin images
will be shown with a bright background.

Throw an error instead.  This should help DigitalMan debug his issue.

For Wildcat (N)ewsletter command and PCBoard "NEWS" command, display
"No news is good news." instead. :-)

... when using the -mail option, which probably no sysop is.

Just needed to set the 'can_read' property.

... so yeah, most *nix sysops will get a warning about running something newer
than the latest release.

When displaying this node vstatus, the user's alias shouldn't be appended to
the node status, else you get something like this:

16  Logging out Digital ManDigital Man

Just write to whatever dir, maybe that'll work.

I expect this to crash on Windows...

DDLightbarMenu: AdditionalQuitKeys now are honored in traditional (non-lightbar) mode, and there's a new menu property, nonANSIPromptText, which allows customization of the prompt text when in traditional/non-ANSI mode.

It's in JS now.

This simply writes changed values to ctrl/textedit.ini, you can
copy these into the appropriate text.ini or text.dat.

I haven't dug in to see if text.dat has different encoding than ini
or anything, and I think that if you want to use this to build a
full text.dat, you would want to do it a bit at a time, so a follow-
on utility to convert text.ini to text.dat is likely the easiest way
to do this stuff.

Not sure why I need to... this may be some terminal-abstraction
thing.

That was quick!

This is to work around an issue when fiddling with text data, and
will likely be able to be removed at some point.

Home/End move the the expected place.
CTRL-Q now quits, not Q
CTRL-R "runs" a message (ie: doesn't abort) useful for @EXEC:noyesbar@
CTRL-Z undoes all changes (reloads text.dat value)
CTRL-V allows entering a hex value
^ allows entering a CTRL-code
\ allows an escape character

Nicer example than MsgSubj IMO.
