  • PCBoard shell bug

    From Thomas McCaffery@1:103/705 to GitLab issue in main/sbbs on Monday, June 15, 2026 12:13:32

    This line will not print @codes

    `if (!console.yesno("\r\n\x01b\x01hUse \x01c@LASTNEW@\x01b for new file scan date")) {`

    Proposed fix:

    `var last; if (bbs.new_file_time == 0) last = "Never"; else last = strftime("%a %b %d %Y %H:%M:%S", bbs.new_file_time);`

    `if (!console.yesno("\r\nUse " + last + " for new file scan date/time")) { var val = bbs.get_newscantime(bbs.new_file_time); if (val !== null) bbs.new_file_time = val; }`

    Or use: `system.timestr(bbs.new_file_time)` or `bbs.atcode("LASTNEW")` instead. --- SBBSecho 3.37-Linux
