I have a JavaScript script where I'd like to check for the user's spin pauseãsetting. I saw in sbbsdefs.js that USER_NOPAUSESPIN represents no spinningãcursor at the pause prompt for user.settings. However, when I check for this,ãit seems it's always true, regardless of my spinning cursor setting. I'veãtried a simple test to ensure I'm correctly checking for it:ããif (user.settings & USER_NOPAUSESPIN)ã console.print("No spin pause");ãelseã console.print("Spin pause is enabled");ããRegardless of whether my spin pause is enabled or not, that code hits the "Noãspin pause" case.ãI've also tried the "if" test this way (which should be equivalent) with theãsame result:ããif ((user.settings & USER_NOPAUSESPIN) == USER_NOPAUSESPIN)ã console.print("No spin pause");ãelseã console.print("Spin pause is enabled");ããI'm not sure if I'm not checking it correctly or if it's a bug in Synchronet. ãI'm currently running Synchronet 3.17 for Windows built on January 3, 2016.ããNightfoxãã---ã þ Synchronet þ Digital Distortion: digitaldistortionbbs.comã

The USER_SPIN settingãenables the spinning cursor at all input prompts. The USER_NOPAUSESPINã*disables* the spinning cursor at the pause prompt (only).

It looks like if I check forãUSER_SPIN, it works as expected.ããIn the user settings screen, I only see one relevant setting, "SpinningãCursor". I don't see a separate setting for spinning cursor only at the pauseãprompt. Does USER_NOPAUSESPIN correspond to any of the user settings?
