    Log Message:
    Fix off-by-one error in sbbs_t::cleartoeol() for non-ANSI terminals

    This was evident by logging in with PETSCII/64col mode and the last ']' of the "Loading message pointers..." progress indicator was left in the first right column of the screen.

    Log Message:
    Propagate the non-auto user terminal dimensions to the runtime values, always

    Previously, if either of the user terminal dimensions was set to a auto (0) then we wouldn't propagate the other specific (non-zero) value to the runtime console dimension. Usually a user will set either both values (cols and rows) to 0/auto or neither. So this isn't a oft-used configuration combo.

    Log Message:
    Remove broken security check for text.dat strings w/@-codes in bputs()

    As Deuce pointed out, the text[] pointers are malloc()'d so they're not necessarily sequential/in-order addresses. Definitely not after
    any text replacements have been made.

    Log Message:
    Skip the UTF-8 BOM when auto-detected by auto_utf8()

    I think this was the intention of this function always (hence why it returns
    a char*).

    Add comment about curious legacy behavior when sending a FF via outchar()

    Cosmetically, the blank line before the screen clear often looks good/best, except when it doesn't. But I'm pretty sure this was originally added to avoid a pause prompt being displayed near the right edge of the screen and possibly wrapping.
