Greetings,
Fixed are:
Backspace.
A small non-80x25 issue.
Webserver exceptions.
Small webserver logging bug.
Small info service logging bug.
I redid the broadcast() to be more in line with its new role, and accordingly redid oldbroadcast() and renamed it to rebroadcast(). This has saved much complexity and will decrease the bug probability in the future.
I also fixed what appears to be a shortcoming of older ncurses, the echochar() not calling refresh. Weird...
Miscellaneous other changes as well.
News:
The ALPINE project is pretty neat. It does some things similar to Genny, and some things highly dissimilarly. More information at http://www.cubicmetercrystal.com/alpine/
Coderman, the author of Alpine, and I intend to keep features of Alpine and Genny compatible. For example, the plan is to be able to search files on Alpine from Genny, and vice versa.
This provides sort of an insurance for me (and coderman as well, I assume). Should it happen that my solution is impractical, Genny can still be used via gateways with Alpine.
