#51 automatic logon via ALT-L (capital L) vs ALT-l (lower case L)
NOTE: this is reported to me by one of my BBS users...
syncterm uses ALT-l (lower case L) for automatic login... if capslock is on syncterm attempts to login with the user name "L" which fails...
shouldn't syncterm handle both ALT-l and ALT-L the same?
AFAIK this user is on windows... i do not know if they are using command/cmd to run syncterm or if they are using the win32-console... i also do not know the version of syncterm they are using... i can update this issue with that information later when i hear back from them...

they report that the title bar of their syncterm window says "v1.1b - SDL"...
windows 10 Pro and syncterm is 32bit...

v1.1b is a beta of 1.1 which could be from a wide range of nightly builds. 1.1 has been released for some time, and should be used instead.
