┴ ┴ ┴ ┴ One Solution
If you are on-line with a Wild Cat BBS and you want to see the Ansi
Color in the messages, well don't fear, there is a WAY!
To do this just go to the translation table and (ALT-A in QMODEM
and ALT-W in Telix) and select the input table to adjust.
Go to the ASCII character number 96 and select to change it.
Now, change it to the character number 27.
This sets your program up now so every time a "`" comes in, it now
translates it to the escape sequence that Ansi needs to see (ASCII 27).
I have used this idea for a months and have not had or heard of
any problems. I expect MSI to fix this bug in Wild Cat in the future
as far as I know they have the only BBS program that shows raw ansi code
to the online user.
