Loop through history table - only works if a 1th entry exists

[kingthorin]

eg:

community-scripts/standalone/Loop through history table.js

Line 14 in 8a9da8a

i=1

Nothing gets displayed if history record no.1 is removed. Further the 'loop' only works if the IDs are sequential.

There is a way to get the last history id:

community-scripts/standalone/historySourceTagger.js

Line 19 in 8a9da8a

lastRef=extHist.getLastHistoryId();// Get current max history reference

But there does not appear to be an equivalent for the first. Even so, that wouldn't solve the issue of non-contiguous ranges.

This isn't a show stopper but might be worth documenting in the script.

The script could ignore missing IDs and loop until the last history ID, or, obtain the IDs of the messages from the History table (DB).
