They all take diffent       approaches to adding color, ansi or pipe codes are the most used ways and       there are others also.              If your interface doesn't support that it will look terrible. I normally use       golded or a like editor to read and reply so I have no support for color in       messages.               Ttyl :-),        Al              --- GoldED+/LNX        * Origin: The Rusty MailBox - Penticton, BC Canada (1:153/757)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 90/1 120/340 601 123/131 226/30 227/114 702 229/101       SEEN-BY: 229/424 426 664 1014 240/5832 249/206 317 400 292/854 317/3       SEEN-BY: 322/757 342/200       PATH: 153/757 3634/12 261/38 320/219 203/0 280/464 229/101 426           |
