I think it's safe to assume that every terminal now has at least some measure of ANSI compatibility, don't you think? Anyone still using a vintage Wyse or Televideo at this point is probably running "screen" to translate vt100/ansi style terminal control into their native language.
That being the case, it seems as if we could do a few *simple* tricks, such as moving the cursor up a line when the user backspaces over a line break.
Almost 35 years ago, one dude arbitrarily made the decision that a hard line break consisted of a newline followed by a space. I want to get rid of that, as well as the proprietary format it generates inside of Citadel. I'd like to replace it with "Content-type: text/plain; format=flowed" which is standardized, understood by lots of third party client agents, and degrades flawlessly to plain text with a fixed column width.
Jeff Prothero and Hue White are not deities and their design decisions are not set in stone forever. Citadel is 100% ours now and we do what we want with it.

What am I doing wrong with the text client?
Nothing ... for some reason we're not listening on 504 right now, and I don't have time to take a maintenance window to troubleshoot it.
I don't want to clutter the development board, so i will clutter up this one.
Feature request: can we have a year view for the new webcit?
Also i see you are thinking of using the w3schools template thingey, funny i was looking at that the otherday and was thinking of using one of their css templates for a home hosted site.
So as a complete new user can i be of any assistance to whoever is doing the css thingey, maybe calendar thingey ?? I can break it for sure but i am certain i can do something to help given a few pointers.
This isn't so bad. Good functionality using a year view. I have yet to find any kind of web calendar with a really good year view, which is suprising.

Hm, what kind of year view do you have in mind? Can you give me an example image? Or sketch up something? Even a pencil sketch is ok, so that I get to see what you need.
I wonder how much detail you want to see.
Sure, just made a few sketches for you. I can send you an email with the relevant stuff, or can post here.

Just sent you a zip archive with some quick sketches and notes. Let me know what you think.

Changing the subject: i logged in today, to find my ISP/hostname was the top of the "not logged in" user/s (there were 19 not logged in, so that is 19 people/or bots viewing the web or text clients to this system?)
Strange! Or is this normal?
Many bots but I always see a lot of users not logged in.
This belongs in WhoList shenanigans but

Where do we post about contactlist chaos? I cannot add a contact to my addressbook it just changes my own email contact details. :)
... but when it is the right time in the universe to rewrite, can we have a command line calendar and task management functionality? :D
Fri Jul 08 2016 11:42:01 EDT from LoanShark @ UncensoredBut it isn't worth rewriting, not at this moment in the universe
anyway.
Sure. It exists for nostalia's sake anyway, so it might as well remain as a shrine to itself.
(I still use webcit only about twice a year, to view some very important image upload.)
God.
DAMN.
