  • MsgLib in master

    From apam@21:1/125 to All on Tue Dec 18 13:58:50 2018
    I've just pushed the msglib branch into master.

    Take a backup first, but I think it's pretty stable.

    I can feel an upgrade coming on. ;) My upgrade script takes a backup, before doing the upgrade.

    Updated and so far so good. Don't notice anything yet, but I do like
    the different colours in the message reader now. :) Went looking in \dist\config\bbs.ini just in case it was configurable. ;)

    Yeah, sorry, it's not configurable yet. I'm thinking about adding a
    [colours] section to bbs.ini for this and any future colour changes. Then
    I would have to decide what values to give for colours. Do I make people
    fill in number codes or get fancy and translate things like D_YELLOW or
    "dark yellow" or something else.. also should I make it possible to
    change the background colour too?

    Either/or will work for me. These days, the overhead of spelling out the name should be trivial. :)


    ... I don't have any solution, but I certainly admire the problem.

    If you're doing it may as well make the background configurable too.
    As for values... Honestly it doesn't matter because you can create a
    simple chart in the docs that gives the values. Basically I'm fine for whatever you do. ;)
