    Log Message:
    Fix an off-by-one line bug in the "local side" of the split-screen-chat.

    This bug would cause the split-screen separator to repeat when the local
    side scrolled (if the terminal was 24 rows, bug didn't happen when local
    screen was 25 rows).

    This bug appears to have "always" been there. The split-screen separator is
    80 columns, so that forced a line wrap on the subsequent CRLF and the local_y value was "off-by-one". Just use ansi_gotoxy() instead and put the cursor
    where you think it is.

    Also, support > 24 row terminals for longer chat history (bottom half only).

    Is this the point when the lost chars problem happens?

    Add error and debug level log messages to private chat

    When reading and writing characters to chat files, log each with a debug-level log message. If a read or a write fails, log with an error-level log message.

    This will hopefully help root-cause and resolve issue #304.

    Fix-up the recently-added debug/error log messages

    I didn't look closely enough at which write() call I was instrumenting.
    This is now more useful, though I think we already found the root-cause
    based on different log output ("Unexpected ansi_getxy response").

    Fix buffer overflow in guru chat parsing engine

    The trigger was this line in the recent change to guru.dat:
    Unrealized potential. :-(

    That open paren was parsed as the beginning of a new guru expression. A very long guru expression that overflowed the stack variable 'str' here.

    Log Message:
    A close-parenthesis in a guru.dat response string would throw-off the parser

    After a negative-match of a Guru expression, we were searching for the next
    '(' anywhere in the subsequent chars of the file rather than just the next
    line that started with an open-parenthesis character.

    This bug was the secondary cause of the buffer-overflow crash addresseed in commit 62e2280e which was triggered by my recent updates to the guru.dat.
