    From Rob Swindell (on Debian Linux)@VERT to Git commit to main/sbbs/master on Wednesday, April 23, 2025 18:25:59
    https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/commit/1d1315af7af21066e212800e
    Modified Files:
    exec/load/tdfonts_lib.js exec/tdfiglet.js
    Log Message:
    Add Ctrl-A output encoding (now the default)

    The output is CP437/Ctrl-A by default, use -u to force UTF-8 encoded characters if you need that or -a to force ANSI output if you need that.

    Removed the mIRC color support (that can be added back easiliy enough if anyone actually wants that).

    So the tdfiglet -e u|a option has been replaced with -u (UTF-8)
    and -c m|a option has been replaced -a (ANSI). Simpler usage with correct terminology.

    Modified Files:
    exec/load/tdfonts_lib.js exec/tdfiglet.js
    Log Message:
    If no font object or filename is passed to lib, pick a font file at random

    This moves the random file selection into tdfonts_lib.js

    We should also pick a font index at random (when opt.random is true), but that's not happening yet.

    Also fixed up some indentation issues (when using 4 space tabstops). The original commit of this file used spaces for indentation, so it's kind of
    a mess now and should be uncrustified.

    Log Message:
    Add tdfiglet -R option for random font with retry (e.g. if too wide for screen)

    ... use with caution as you could get into an infinite exception/retry loop using this feature.

    tdfonts_lib opt.retry added (default: false/disabled)

    Removed some unnecessary comments from lib source
