   Hi g00r00,   
      
   When using ansi files larger than standard 80x25, and wanting to use display   
   codes like the !UH (pipe not !) I can do that fine, but if I want to use the   
   justification display codes, like $C or $L or $R they only accept two digit   
   widths, however I need to use three digit widths, i.e. !$C122 - what actually   
   happens is it just does !$C12 and prints the 2 at the start of whatever string   
   I'm trying to centre.   
      
   Any chance of the display codes for left/right/center justify being allowed to   
   use 2 or 3 digits?   
      
   Also this is the same for cursor positioning too i.e. [X99 is the farthest   
   right I can go, and I can't do [X100 - [X132   
      
   Thanks muchly!
