Maybe you had done so on the 11.6 update and/or saving       length at 0 would be ok to do .. I'll give it a shot for sure, thats normally       how I fix these issues.               g0> I could probably improve on this in the future, its just worked this way        g0> for 20+ years.        g0> I think most people turn pausing off for scrolling ANSIs and/or use baud        g0> rate emulation and in the few cases where the pause is desired it just        g0> has to be saved a certain way.              Yes setting a pipe code PO at the beginning normally fixes the issue also, but       did not in this case.               g0>         g0> I'll make a note of it in the TODO to look at changing the logic.                     That would be awesome to see as well.              -tG              --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 2020/11/06 (Windows/32)        * Origin: The Underground [@] theunderground.us:10023 <-port (1:227/702)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 105/81 120/340 123/131 129/305 226/30 227/114       SEEN-BY: 227/702 229/101 275 424 426 452 550 664 981 1016 240/5832       SEEN-BY: 249/206 317 400 292/854 317/3 322/757 342/200 633/280       PATH: 227/702 229/426           |
