[Bug-XBoard] [bug #27650] Line wrap in ICS mode

[Tim Mann]

Follow-up Comment #9, bug #27650 (project xboard):

If the ICS splits the line in the middle of a style12 board, that would screw
things up for other interfaces besides xboard, wouldn't it?  So I'd think we
could get the ICS folks to fix that, though it's nice to tolerate it if we
can.

Can we arrange to join lines only if they are part of a style12 board? I.e.,
we've seen the <12> (or whatever the marker is, I'm not sure I remembered
right).

A small bit of irony: the reason WinBoard has a nice custom widget for the
board console is that the native Windows console windows are truly horrible,
much worse than an xterm.  The first version of WinBoard used the native
console windows, just like xboard uses the xterm you started it from, and it
was unusable.  So I unhappily put in a lot of work writing a replacement, but
I never got around to doing it for xboard because the xterm wasn't as nice,
but was tolerable to me.
