    Don't use pointers to the low byte of multi-byte integersThis only works on little endian systems (which is all we support currently).Fixes CID 174261: Wrong size argumentThis binary drop file writing code is pretty terrible and inefficient, but I remember being really proud of it (supporting so many drop files). This really should be re-written to use structures and/or buffered file I/O.

    Fix EXITINFO.BBS generation for 64-bit time_t and moreSo I was working on re-writing some of this door file generation code and noticed that the EXITINFO.BBS files generated by SBBS:1. had a lot of garbage data filling unused string characters (no "harm", but potentially leaking information)2. had the wrong total file length due to 64-bit logontime (time_t)3. had the wrong total file length due to writing 19 GosubData elements (instead of 20)The first and last issues appear to be some of those "forever" (20+ year old) bugs.So I'm guessing no regularly used door games actually use these portions of the EXITINFO.BBS, so most likely: no harm, no foul. But still, best to fix this before I commit the rewrite.

    Overhaul EXITINFO.BBS creation using C++ templated classesAh, that's better. Actually would work correctly on big-endian platforms (should we ever support one) and with way less code.

    Add space after numeric value on second line of DOORFILE.SR

    This appears to work around a bug in BRE, FE, and TAL where they don't recognize the "1" (ANSI supported) unless there is at least one other
    character on the line following the decimal digit, resulting in the
    unnecessary prompting of the user:
    This game is much more enjoyable with ANSI graphics enabled.
    Do you want ANSI Graphics? (Y/n)

    As reported by "ben" in IRC.

    Clear any mouse hot-spots before executing external program from exec_xtrn()

    As Nelgin pointed out, mouse hot-spots were still active when running external programs (door games) - so clear any active hot-spots before running external programs.

    This could possibly be done in external() instead, but this sufficient for
    now. I wouldn't want a menu that EXEC's something (via @-code) to lose all its hot-spots as a result.
