  • Function to display a message

    From Nightfox@VERT/DIGDIST to Digital Man on Thursday, January 27, 2011 21:53:16
    Hi DM -

    Looking through the Synchronet JavaScript documentation, it looks like the MsgBase class allows you to get the body of a message, but is there a function that will simply display a message and behaves the same way as the "Read message prompt" behaves when displaying a message (i.e., honoring Synchronet's color code toggle settings, etc.)? I haven't seen such a function in the documentation, unless I've missed something..

    Use console.putmsg() to print a message body and honor the color code toggle settings.
