After changing to terminal settings to just cp437 the       Mode 7 menus did not display correctly, however when the same user logged out       and back in the menus displayed as they should.              >I looked at it, but doesn't tell me any specific cause.       Yeah I'm not sure what the specific cause is. I think it might be column       related as the Mode 7 screens corrupt just after @ANODE|L13@ and the ANSI       screen is displaying the avatar too far left. Maybe there is something at       logoff that re-confirms the users terminal settings and update a flag I've       missed.              >I would think an "ascii" terminal would want no extended ASCII (IBM CP437)       characters, so that USER_NO_EXASCII flag should be set (not cleared)              Oh yes thank you, you're absolutely correct, I'll get that updated.              The odd terminal choices are because it's primarily designed for a BBC Micro to       use, so if you're using ASCII you're most likely in Mode 7 (which leaves the       most amount of free memory and displays best on a TV, which is 40 columns), if       you're using an ANSI client (of which I think there are only 2 and only one of       those supports a *massive* 4 colours) then that is 80 columns and does not       support UTF-8              >If JS, you can just put "default:" on the line before the "case" statement you       want to be the default.        Great thanks JS is still very new to me I'll implement this.       --- SBBSecho 3.20-Linux        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)       SEEN-BY: 90/1 103/705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 153/757 7715 154/10       SEEN-BY: 154/30 203/0 218/700 221/0 226/30 227/114 229/110 114 206       SEEN-BY: 229/317 400 426 428 470 550 700 705 240/1120 5832 266/512       SEEN-BY: 280/464 5003 5006 282/1038 291/111 292/8125 301/1 310/31       SEEN-BY: 320/219 322/757 341/66 234 342/200 396/45 423/120 460/58       SEEN-BY: 460/256 1124 467/888 633/280 712/848 770/1 5020/400 5054/30       SEEN-BY: 5075/35       PATH: 103/705 280/464 460/58 229/426           |
