• Missing option [L] in synchronet classic shell - main menu

    From Keyop Troy@VERT to GitLab issue in main/sbbs on Thu Mar 18 20:08:50 2021
    open https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/issues/239

    As well as being able to [R]ead messages within the current message area, there is also the option to [L]ist messages and select which one to open, however the [L] option is not included in the menu text, and therefore users are unaware this option exists.

    Could the [L] option be added to the menu so that users are aware it's there?

    Menu looks a little garbled:

    Spacing is needed after the List/View messages so that the /* List groups is indented and .. Other commands aligns underneath .. Electronic Mail

    Why don't you just create your own menus so your BBS doesn't look like every other BBS?

    Good point.

    One minor suggestion.... add a space before the .. Read/Post Messages to align to the other ".." headers.
