    From Mojo@1:103/705 to All on Tue Jan 30 15:39:55 2018
    I found a new message coming up today which I have never seen is this something that will become a problem or is it nothing to worry about.



    1/30 03:30:47p Node 1 !JavaScript warning c:\sbbs\exec\load\require.js line 2: Terminated


    Thanks

    "Terminated" just means that the script was terminated. Likely, not critical. If you know the steps to reproduce it, let us know and maybe can at least get the warning to go away.

    So this message from Mojo has an interesting anomoly: The subject line contains a control character (a carriage-return):

    Subject 21 4A 61 76 61 53 63 72 69 70 74 20 77 61 72 6E 69 6E 67 20 63 3A 73 62 62 73 1B 78 65 63 6C 6F 61 64 0D 65 71 75 69 72 65 2E 6A 73 20 6C 69 6E

    So this implies that there's some way to enter control characters into the subject field of messages posted using SlyEdit (!). If that's not already fixed (i.e. Mojo isn't running the latest version of SlyEdit), then it should be.

    Of course, I can add more field validation/clean-up in more places to be sure that doesn't happen, but the editor shouldn't do that either. :-)

    I have found that it does not do this every time just once in a while. So maybe it is nothing to worry about. I will watch it and see if it starts doing it more often.

    SlyEdit does not allow editing the subject line (and has never allowed editing the subject line). Synchronet itself prompts the user for the subject, and SlyEdit leaves the subject unchanged. So I'm not sure how that control character would have gotten there.

    If you want a fresh and complete install on linux I'd suggest having a look at http://wiki.synchro.net/install:nix. There are instructions there for the initial install and keeping updated.

    There is also a wiki page for migrating between windows and linux but I forget exactly the URL at the moment.

    It appears that Mojo's subject contained character combinations (e.g. '\e', '\r') which would be interpretted by some JavaScript operations (e.g. eval()) as control characters (\e is ESC, or 0x1B and \r would be CR or 0x0D).

    So... something along the line interpretted those codes as escape sequences. I don't think it's the editor at all (in this case, SlyEdit), and I'm sorry for pointing the finger at it. :-)
