  • Hitting 'N' or Ctrl-C at

    In Synchronet v3.20, for example when using the ";help" command from the default shell, hitting 'N' (or the equivalent "No key" or Ctrl-C) at the first auto-pause ("Hit a key") prompt will abort the help output.

    This doesn't happen now with v3.21 (terminal abstraction).

    Login to bbs.synchro.net to see how v3.20 behaves in this regard. Compare to vert or cvs.synchro.net.

    My original description and understanding of the difference in behavior was wrong, but it's still an unexpected change from the terminal abstraction.

    Interestingly, this only seems to occur in expert mode.

    And since it's three pause prompts when using space, it appears the 'N' is "working" on both to abort the output... it's just that "the output" on the second is the one for the prompt.
