I've compiled a list of fixes for a meshchat v1.1 release:
Truncate channel names to a reasonable length to prevent display issues
Raspbian Stretch support
Error Sending Message: Could not get Lock
List files in alphabetical order
I think there are a few more problems I missed. I you know of any others please post to this thread.
Since the preferred way to implement mesh chat is to put in on a raspberry pi and install only the API on the node, I was hoping to be able to use the USB port on the RPI for data file storage. It looked like I could make a few changes changes to the configuration file and have this happen, but I was unsuccessful.
If such a configuration option could be a standard feature, that would be nice...
As I recall, I eventually changed pretty much everything to the mount point of the USB drive. I got the message database over there, but not the files. And mesh chat stopped working correctly. So maybe I just did something wrong and it was supposed to work. In that case, an example of the correct way to do it would be great to have on line somewhere....
