GBB

A simple bulletin board writed in Go for the terminal to run in a shared *nix server. It has a simple board with threads or conversations sorted by the last message date. It hasn't a users database and it uses the system common users. For admin tasks you must be logged as root (or sudo).

It's written in Go entirely using tcell library for the user interface. Use a SQLite file to store threads and messages.

The keys to use it are:

• a: Add a new thread or new message
• d: Delete a thread or a message. Only for admin or for the author
• e: Edit a message. Only for admin or for the author
• b: Search thread by a filter
• f: Fix a thread in the header of the board. Only for the admin
• c: Close a thread. Only for the admin
• ↑↓: With arrows keys you can navegate into threads or the replies
• AvPg/RePg: To navigate inside the pages of a reply, If it is too long to show it in a screen
• ?: Show the help
• ESC: Return to the previous panel or quit the application

All the help messages are in spanish but if you want to use gbb in your server and you want change them, send PR or ask me.
