Modified Files:
src/sbbs3/str_util.c str_util.h
Log Message:
Created convert_ansi() which is kind of a minimal version of ANS2ASC

It Ctrl-A encodes a possibly ANSI-encoded string, supporting on color/attribute sequences and stripping all others.

Modified Files:
src/sbbs3/str_util.c str_util.h
Log Message:
Allow '*' pattern character to be used mid-string (not just beg or end)

Previously, the '*' matching pattern character could only be used as the beginning or ending character of a pattern string; for any other use, it was treated just as any other exact-match character.

Now, you can have exact-match characters on both the left and right sides of the '*', so pattern matching like the following is possible:

<*@gmail.com>
digital*man

Multiple '*'s are still not treated special (only the first/left-most '*" is), so, for example, "*blah*" will not likely produce the desired matching effect (use "blah~" instead for this case).

src/sbbs3/str_util.c str_util.h
Log Message:
Add strip_cp437_graphics() and have strip_ctrl() remove DEL chars too

strip_cp437_graphics() is like strip_exascii(), except it'll leave the foreign language characters and math symbols intact (removing just the common "block" and "line-drawing" characters).

DEL (0x7F) is a control character too, so have strip_ctrl() remove it.

Modified Files:
src/sbbs3/str_util.c str_util.h
Log Message:
Add contains_invalid_attr() - checks string for invalid attr Ctrl-A codes

Other Ctrl-A codes (e.g. ^A\) might be valid, but they're not attribute
control codes, so their existence would cause this function to return true.
