    https://gitlab.synchro.net/main/sbbs/-/commit/9439f5b8e23351f3a96982b0

    Log Message:
    Fix: initialize default data directories after auto-creating sub-dirs

    When a file library's "Access to Sub-directories" option was enabled, any auto-created directories would have their data dir initialized as "blank" (empty), so their data files (e.g. <code>.dat, <code>.ixb) would be created in the ctrl directory.

    I guess nobody used this feature? It is pretty cool, but not really documented. If you were using it before this commit, you'll need to move your sub-directories data files to data/dirs or re-add the files (recreate the database files). And you can remove the old cruft from the ctrl dir.

    Coincidentally, a few weeks ago I found that option and could not find
    any documentation for it.

    When you have some free time, can you add some documentation please?

    Thank you!

    Log Message:
    sys_timezone() no longer modifies the scfg_t.sys_timezone member itself

    ... just the returned copy (when toggling the DST flag).

    This resolve the issue of SCFG->System menu detecting changes by the sysop
    (and prompting to Save Changes when exiting) when no changes were actually made, just that DST had been auto-enabled/disabled based on the date.
