    ml>> there were also ^A codes as well as ANSI codes...

    MK> hell.   
      
   yeah, GoldED trashed it at some point... it didn't remain at the end of the   
   message where i put it... when i read your first post about it, i went back   
   and looked and GE has broken it all to hell...   
      
    ml>> i see ANSI graphics posted in one or two of the BBS ads echos   
    ml>> all the time...   
      
    MK> Hm.  Maybe I should pick one of those up.  Any recommendations?   
      
   not recommendations, per s‚...

    ml>> i'll have to try to dig one out...   
      
    MK> I'd prefer the St. Patrick's one if available.  I now need closure since   
    MK> you brought it up.   
      
   would a graphic work instead of the farkled ANSI?   
      
    ml>> that should not be needed with what i do...   
      
    MK> Sounds great.  The little I've done with ansi graphics I've made it a   
   point   
    MK> to follow a similar plan.  In my case it was only to colourize messages on   
    MK> a console.   
      
   yeah, that's what a lot of folks used to do... in some of the networks that   
   are mainly ANSI graphic oriented, there's a lot of that and you almost have to   
   read posts online via an ANSI capable terminal...   
      
    ml>> i don't know at this point...   
      
    MK> Understood.  Anyhow back when it mattered to me I found rxvt to be the   
    MK> terminal of choice in GUI-land.  If I am recalling correctly it was with   
    MK> the -rv and -ls switches turned on by default.  Same with xterm now that I   
    MK> think about it.   
      
   i think the term i use is konsole... it comes with KDE and i've just never   
   looked into trying any others... i don't know what the regular text-based   
   console is when i switch over to it via CTRL-ALT-F1 but it is the standard TTY   
   interface... i have six of those there via ALT-F1-6 and ALT-F7 brings me back   
   into the GUI...
