  • exec/load/avatar_lib.js

    From Rob Swindell (on Debian Linux)@VERT to Git commit to main/sbbs/master on Fri Jul 18 11:52:03 2025

    Modified Files:
    exec/load/avatar_lib.js
    Log Message:
    Recognize '-' as a valid QWK-ID character in network addresses

    Copied the QWK_ID_PATTERN regex definition from newuser.js
    These definitions really should be moved to a single source of truth (e.g. load/something_defs.js).

    This explains the ctrl/false file (avatar data) file created when importing
    (or trying to import) avatars from "TL-QWK" BBS. The dash wasn't recognized
    as a valid QWK-ID char, so netuser_fname() was returning false when importing avatars (in the SYNCDATA conference) from this BBS.

    Good eye Dan_C!

    Log Message:
    Have read() generate an identicon if it can't find an avatar.

    Disabled avatars will still not be shown if the user disables them,
    but for everyone else, an avatar will be shown now.

    This purposefully does not actually write/update the users avatar.

    No no, it has to be more equal than that.

    Sometimes it's false too.

    undefined === ???
    null === user number specified
    false === no network avatar (and maybe some other things)
