  • JS prompt() function weirdness

    From Rob Swindell@1:103/705 to GitLab issue in main/sbbs on Saturday, May 03, 2025 14:54:48

    1. The maximum input string length is not passable (it likely should be).
    2. The max input length of the jsexec prompt() implementation is 255 chars, while it's 127 chars in the SBBS prompt() implementation.
    3. The jsexec prompt() function takes a string argument but appears to do nothing with it (doesn't display it or use it as a default input string).
