    Modified Files:
    src/sbbs3/js_console.cpp
    Log Message:
    Rename console.crlf() to console.newline(), leaving crlf() as an alias

    Also use sbbs_t::newline() as the underlying implementation of console.newline() rather than a hard-coded CR/LF output loop.

    Added new console methods:
    cond_newline() - equivalent of Ctrl-A/
    cond_blankline() - equivlaent of Ctrl-A?
    cond_contline() - equivalent of Ctrl-A\

    ... so a JS script author doesn't have to output Ctrl-A codes to invoke those functions.

    Add console.linefeed() method - for completionism

    Seriously though, this doesn't always do the same thing as outputting a '\n' (e.g. in PETSCII mode, it sends a "cursor down" (17) control character).

    New console property: unicode_zerowidth (either 0 or 1)

    The column-width of UNICODE 'zero-width' character is now autodetected. This property allows one to use/change this autodetected width (normally 0 or 1). ---

    Fix potential null object pointer passed to JS_GetProperty in js_gotoxy()

    I'm not sure under what script conditions this could happen, but apparently Nelgin was able to produce this null pointer deref (and segfault) using DDMsgReader. This should fix issue #769

    Log Message:
    Better invalid argument reporting (null object) from js_gotoxy()

    The calling script will still terminate if it does this, but at least the caller will get a useful JS exception.

    Related to fix for issue #769

    Modified Files:
    src/sbbs3/js_console.cpp
    Log Message:
    Parse console.inkey() timeout parameter as an *unsigned* integer

    A negative timeout value doesn't make sense and this will extend the legal (positive) range of this parameter value.

    Hopefully this will help eliminate these errors I get often:
    dd_lightbar_menu.js line 4041: Error: can't convert inputTimeoutMS to an
    integer

    But if there's some way that this parameter value is even out of the range of an unsigned 32-bit value (4294967295) then this error could still happen. Unfortunately, the JS exception doesn't report the value that failed to convert.
