Mutiny Community Development Notes Version 5.17 - 2025/02/09

* When using line editor, and editing a line, you can split up a long line by injecting a newline marker.  There are 4 markers to accomodate various terminal types which may not have characters such as backslash:

These markers are: \n, _n, |n, and [n
Here's how you use it, by example:
...this is becoming a run-on sentence, I should probably stop using comas and start a new paragraph.
* /e (edit) -> (s) search & replace:
Search: sentence, I
Replace with: sentence,\n\nI
Results in:
...this is becoming a run-on sentence.

I should probably stop using comas and start a new paragraph.

* Gopher
The BBS now has a gopher browser, one that should be usable on pretty much any terminal type even if it doesn't support VT52/VT100/ANSI codes.  I won't go into all details of it and you can play with it yourself.

From chat use '/gopher', from the main menu G.  Since "G" previously took you into games that's been changed to "D" for "Door Games".

The gopher browser includes a bookmarking system where users can create both public and private bookmarks (sort of like the public/private pinned messages), you can put tags (keywords) on your bookmarks and you can search/filter these tags (along with the gopher entry's title).

There may be some changes/fixes/enhacnements to come.
