+ `my_messages.js` module (defaulted to "m" at the message menu) to list public messages addressed to the currently logged in user. Takes into account their username and `real_name` property.
* Menu items can now be arrays of *objects* not just arrays of strings.
* The properties `itemFormat` and `focusItemFormat` allow you to supply the string format for items. For example if a menu object is `{ "userName" : "Bob", "age" : 35 }`, a `itemFormat` might be `|04{userName} |08- |14{age}`.
* If no `itemFormat` is supplied, the default formatter is `{text}`.
* Setting the `data` member of an object will cause form submissions to use this value instead of the selected items index.
* See the default `luciano_blocktronics``matrix` menu for example usage.
* You can now set the `sort` property on a menu to sort items. If `true` items are sorted by `text`. If the value is a string, it represents the key in menu objects to sort by.
* Hot-reload of configuration files such as menu.hjson, config.hjson, your themes.hjson, etc.: When a file is saved, it will be hot-reloaded into the running system
* Note that any custom modules should make use of the new Config.get() method.
* Ability to delete from personal mailbox (finally!)
* Add ability to skip file and/or message areas during newscan. Set config.omitFileAreaTags and config.omitMessageAreaTags in new_scan configuration of your menu.hjson
* User event log is now functional. Various events a user performs will be persisted to the `system.db``user_event_log` table for up to 90 days. An example usage can be found in the updated `last_callers` module where events are turned into Ami/X style actions. Please see `UPGRADE.md`!
*`install.sh` will now attempt to use NPM's `--build-from-source` option when ARM is detected.
*`oputil.js config new` will now generate a much more complete configuration file with comments, examples, etc. `oputil.js config cat` dumps your current config to stdout.
* Handling of failed login attempts is now fully in. Disconnect clients, lock out accounts, ability to auto or unlock at (email-driven) password reset, etc. See `users.failedLogin` in `config.hjson`.
* [Mystic BBS style](http://wiki.mysticbbs.com/doku.php?id=displaycodes) extended pipe color codes. These allow for example, to set "iCE" background colors.
* File descriptions (FILE_ID.DIZ, etc.) now support Renegade |## pipe, PCBoard, and other less common color codes found commonly in BBS era scene releases.
* New menu stack flags: `noHistory` now works as expected, and a new addition of `popParent`. See the default `menu.hjson` for usage.
* File structure changes making ENiGMA½ much easier to maintain and run in Docker. Thanks to RiPuk ([Dave Stephens](https://github.com/davestephens))! See [UPGRADE.md](UPGRADE.md) for details.
* Switch to pure JS [xxhash](https://github.com/mscdex/node-xxhash) instead of farmhash. Too many issues on ARM and other less popular CPUs with farmhash ([Dave Stephens](https://github.com/davestephens))
* Fix various issues with legacy DOS Telnet terminals. Note that some may still have issues with extensive CPR usage by ENiGMA½ that will be addressed in a future release.
* Added web (http://, https://) based download manager including batch downloads. Clickable links if using [VTXClient](https://github.com/codewar65/VTX_ClientServer)!
* NetMail support! You can now send and receive NetMail. To send a NetMail address a external user using `Name <address>` format from your personal email menu. For example, `Foo Bar <123:123/123>`. The system also detects other formats such asa `Name @ address` (`Foo Bar@123:123/123`)
*`oputil.js`: Added `mb areafix` command to quickly send AreaFix messages from the command line. You can manually send them from personal mail as well.
