  • Handle Usage

    From Dave Vandermeer@1:229/275 to All on Sun Sep 9 08:33:50 2018
    Hey folks.. just came across a huge bug that is MOST annoying. When you enable handles on the BBS it will not allow spaces in the users's handle, setting one word name on/off doesn't even seem to affect anything

    This is something that needs to be fixxed.. Not everyone runs a real name based
    BBS .. going though and having to manually change handles is not really something a sysop should have to be doing due to a software bug..

    I don't imagine this is a hard fix to do.. I'd fix it on my own system if I had
    the time to scan all the code for the routine lol
