    Modified Files:
    src/sbbs3/js_console.cpp
    Log Message:
    Add console.progress() method

    This exposes the Synchronet internal sbbs_t::progress() method used to
    display a progress indication bar, e.g. "[ Scanning 10.0% ]" with the bar backfill effect (when supported by the terminal).

    Modified Files:
    src/sbbs3/js_console.cpp
    Log Message:
    If console.uselect() is called just with the number argument, use as default

    This allows the calling script to control what the default item is (when the user just hits enter), and not always the first item.

    Fixes issue #637

    Fix potential null object pointer passed to JS_GetProperty in js_gotoxy()

    I'm not sure under what script conditions this could happen, but apparently Nelgin was able to produce this null pointer deref (and segfault) using DDMsgReader. This should fix issue #769

    Log Message:
    Better invalid argument reporting (null object) from js_gotoxy()

    The calling script will still terminate if it does this, but at least the caller will get a useful JS exception.

    Expose the sbbs_t::uselect_count as console.uselect_count in JS

    It can be set, but only to values less than its current value.

    This is useful for tracking how many items were successfully added to a
    uselect list (considering filtering by ARS).
