Message Exchange

When a user enters a message on the frontend, it is sent Frontend to Board, and then Board to Board (radio communication). When a message is received and displayed, it is sent Board to Board, and then Board to Frontend.

In both cases, special USART characters are used to wrap messages, flagging them for each system while remaining invisible to terminal users.

\x1c[message sender]\x1d: \x1e[message text]\x1f
