I have an idea for a feature request.

I would like the ability to remove certain language from messages, both in existing messages and/or incoming. More specifically, profanity. I know the packet radio door will filter selected words, but as I do not use profanity in any communication form, speach, writing, etc., I would like to remove or filter with special characters.

I don't wish to censor anyone's thoughts or "speach," just words that may be offensive to some. For example: s**t p**s

Just an idea.

Okay, feature requests are now being accepted/stored here: https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/issues

The message text could be changed:

1. at time of import
2. in place, after import
3. at time of read/view

I think '3' would give the most flexibility. '2' would probably be the easiest to implement.

Would that include feature requests for Syncterm?

I'd like to have a notes field in the dialing directory, was wondering
where to ask.

No, SyncTERM feature requests go here: https://sourceforge.net/p/syncterm/feature-requests/

SyncTERM v1.2b already has a "comment" field (appears above the status bar). Hitting TAB while editing a dialing directory entry allows you to edit it.

WOW, that is sweet. I just tried it out on my MacBook, and I loved it. Thanks for the add.

Good to know. Do you wish me to post it there, or just for future reference?

The message text could be changed:

1. at time of import
2. in place, after import
3. at time of read/view

I think '3' would give the most flexibility. '2' would probably be the easiest to implement.

As the programmer, you would know. (Perhaps an option for each individual user to choose.) I wouldn't want to change anything in messages passed along to downlinks.
